Richard Goodman, owner of Laguna Bamboo, creates sustainable artistry for the home with his collection of custom-made bamboo cabinetry for both kitchens and baths. Bypassing traditional hardwoods in favor of rapidly reproducing bamboo, he crafts elegantly upscale pieces that are as practical as they are beautiful. Six door options provide ample opportunity for versatility and customization.  

Considered to be the fastest growing woody plant on earth, bamboo provides an excellent renewable resource for environmentally conscious woodworking. Other eco-friendly benefits from the groves include: lower light intensity that provides protection against ultraviolet rays and atmospheric purification through generation of oxygen. Laguna Bamboo also attributes more esoteric qualities to bamboo, referring to it as “an ancient plant widely recognized for it symbolism of a strong, healthy life”. 

Ultimately, this versatile grass is in good hands with Goodman who combines practical experience as a homebuilder with creative vision to bring us a uniquely functional product that is “a feast for the eyes”.
