Born in Canada, grown in Bali, Indonesia and educated in the United States, Canadian designer Elora Hardy moved back to Bali and created buildings made of bamboo and other natural materials with her dad and team.

"Bamboo was an offering to the future, a promise to the kids, that there could be a bountiful future," Hardy said, explaining why she choose bamboo. 

They have built more than 90 unique buildings, including Green School Bali campus, a school in the middle of the jungle, designed to have the lowest carbon footprint possible.

Leading a team and creating new designs are a long stream of challenges, but Hardy loves these challenges and is trying new possibilities working on other natural materials to "open up a new world for people."

Hardy was named an Architectural Digest Innovator in 2013 for her work on bamboo buildings.
