Today, I would like to share with you some in-depth insights about bamboo and how it influences our design philosophy and sustainable development strategy at BooBoa. As a brand dedicated to bamboo furniture, we have been exploring the diversity and potential of bamboo. Let’s take a deep look at the bamboo plant, its application in culture, and how it inspires our design and lifestyle.
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing members of the grass family, with some species growing up to 91 cm a day. This amazing growth rate makes bamboo a very sustainable resource. At BooBoa, we mainly use moso bamboo and cat bamboo, which are usually harvested within 3-5 years, much faster than the 20-30 year growth cycle of traditional hardwood.


The biodiversity of bamboo is also amazing. There are more than 1,500 species of bamboo in the world, from dwarf ornamental bamboos such as Fujian Guanyin bamboo to giant moso bamboos, each with its own unique characteristics. This diversity provides a rich source of inspiration for our designers. For example, our latest sofa, the “Bamboo Forest Series”, has a backrest design that mimics the swaying leaves in a bamboo forest, which is not only beautiful but also ergonomically advanced.
Bamboo plays an important role in Asian culture, especially in Japanese cuisine. From the bamboo curtains (makisu) for making sushi, to the elegant bamboo chopsticks, to the decorative bamboo baskets, bamboo is everywhere in Japanese food culture.
Inspired by this, BooBoa has launched a series of furniture suitable for modern Japanese restaurants. Our bamboo dining tables adopt the traditional Japanese tatami design concept, and the height is usually between 30-40 cm, which is perfect for dining in a kneeling or cross-legged manner. At the same time, our designers innovatively incorporate bamboo curtain elements into the screen design, which can be used as a functional partition in the restaurant or as an independent work of art.
Lucky bamboo, scientifically known as rich bamboo, although not strictly in the bamboo family, is closely related to bamboo in morphological and cultural sense. In Feng Shui, it is believed to bring good luck and prosperity.


At BooBoa, we incorporate the meaning of lucky bamboo into the “Fuzhu Series” furniture. Each product in this series incorporates traditional Chinese auspicious patterns, such as Ruyi pattern and Huizi pattern. We use advanced laser engraving technology to finely present these patterns on the surface of bamboo furniture, which not only preserves the natural texture of bamboo, but also adds cultural connotations.
From the rapid growth cycle of bamboo plants, to its diverse applications in culture, to the oriental wisdom symbolized by lucky bamboo, bamboo influences our lives and design concepts with its diverse forms. At BooBoa, we are committed to incorporating these elements into our products to create bamboo furniture that is both beautiful and practical, as well as culturally rich and sustainable.
In the future, BooBoa will continue to invest in bamboo research and innovative design to explore more possibilities of bamboo in the home field. We look forward to working with you to create a more environmentally friendly and better living space through every carefully designed piece of furniture.

Thank you for your continued support of BooBoa. If you have any insights or suggestions on our products or sustainable development concepts, we always welcome your feedback. Let us join hands to find balance and harmony in bamboo life and create a sustainable future!

I am a native of Yangchun. Since I was a child, my home has been filled with various bamboo crafts. For example, bamboo baskets can be used to hold fish, candy, fruit, and more. Bamboo chairs and tables are durable and resistant to pests. I hope everyone can use these eco-friendly and practical bamboo products.
