Ubud is the other Bali — inland, cooler, green, and closer to the island's cultural heart. It asks for a different house than the coast: filtered light, timber and water, and a close relationship with the land, whether that's a river's edge, a ridge or a terrace.
Houses here are often retreats — places to slow down — and they call for a quieter, more grounded architecture than the coast.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Ubud suits a calmer, more grounded architecture built around greenery, level changes and enclosure, and it fits naturally with how we work.
Areas of work
Private Residences
Private houses designed for the climate, the site and the way you live — the core of the studio's work.
Interiors
Interior design carried through from the architecture — considered, material-led spaces, whether part of a full house or a standalone commission.
Hospitality
Boutique hospitality — villas, retreats and small resorts. An area the studio is actively growing, bringing the care of a private house to guest experience.
Process
Understanding the site
Every project begins with a close reading of the site — in Ubud, that means its climate, orientation, terrain, access and the particular character of the place, understood before a single line is drawn.
The better we understand the ground, the stronger every decision that follows. Nothing is designed against the site; everything responds to it.
