The kitchen's cabinetry resembled maple or birch, but it was actually crafted from bamboo, a grass that's attractive, durable, and quickly renewable. Bamboo has gained popularity for flooring, and for home textiles such as towels and bedding. The exhibit's triple-paned Pella windows featured built-in shades, which can be lowered in the summer and raised in the winter to control heat from the sun.
