The Luc Lifestyle / Atelier Generations Vasudeva Design

Miwa Negoro — Sat, 07 Feb 2026 21:00:00 +0000

The LUC Lifestyle is envisioned as a contemporary destination that seamlessly blends food and beverages, fashion, fragrance, aesthetic dental care, and traditional Balinese craftsmanship into a single elevated experience. Its core design idea is to create a vibrant hub that reflects the dynamic, international energy of Canggu while honoring the island's cultural identity. This vision guided not only the lifestyle concept but also the architectural language that defines the entire development.

Miwa Negoro — Tue, 20 Jan 2026 02:00:00 +0000

Juna Restaurant sits on Jalan Arjuna, Ubud, on an elevated site. The plan follows the land's contours. Spaces are arranged to frame internal views and a west-facing outlook toward the river and rice fields, bringing the landscape into the dining area.

Nenek Coco Villa / Sukyf & Architects

Miwa Negoro — Tue, 30 Dec 2025 02:00:00 +0000

Nenek Coco - a house where the architectural frame is every work of art. Born from the vision of a painter and an architect, Nenek Coco is a residence–villa that offers an eclectic first impression to all who encounter it. The idea emerged from the couple's need for a quiet place surrounded by the greenery of rice fields, where they could focus, find inspiration, connect with nature, and be surrounded by their vintage artworks spanning centuries. Its brutalist architecture and expansive open spaces allow the house to function as both a home for the family and a gallery for their collections.

3+2+1 Villa / K-Thengono Design Studio

Miwa Negoro — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Conceived as a post-pandemic rental property for digital nomads, the 3+2+1 Villa in Canggu was designed by K-Thengono Design Studio to accommodate varied occupancy scenarios. The brief called for three self-contained units that could operate independently or combine into a single compound, offering adaptability across guest configurations.

Villa Sipat & Sauh / Arkana Architects

Miwa Negoro — Fri, 14 Nov 2025 07:00:00 +0000

Located in the vibrant neighborhood of Bali, Sipat & Sauh Villa redefines the idea of a rental property by bringing the intimacy and warmth of a private home into a hospitality setting. The client's brief was simple yet challenging: to design a pool villa for rent that feels deeply personal—"homey"—while still making a strong architectural statement. The design began with an exploration of what was missing from most rental villas on the island: the sense of familiarity, softness, and spatial intimacy that makes a house feel lived in rather than staged.

BaleBio / Cave Urban

Miwa Negoro — Wed, 12 Nov 2025 02:00:00 +0000

The Bale Bio Pavilion reinterprets the Bale Banjar, the open-sided meeting hall that anchors every Balinese village. Raised off the ground and open to the air, the Bale Banjar has long been a space for ceremony, music, and community discussion. At Mertasari Beach in Sanur, Cave Urban translated this familiar form into a lightweight pavilion built from bamboo and recycled materials, merging local typology with regenerative design principles. "We were really interested in the Bale Banjar," says Jed Long, Director at Cave Urban. "It's a space that everyone in Bali recognises, a structure that connects people and community."

Mama Minka House / Atelier Generations Vasudeva Design

Valeria Silva — Fri, 25 Apr 2025 19:00:00 +0000

Nestled within a forest in Uluwatu, Mami Minka embodies the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, where simplicity and elegance merge effortlessly with nature. Designed as a compact yet profoundly thoughtful retreat, the villa embraces an architectural language that is both grounded and poetic, drawing inspiration from Japanese aesthetics.

Potato Heads Studio Hotel / OMA

Paula Pintos — Wed, 12 Feb 2020 07:42:00 +0000

While the essence of Bali lies in interaction between different cultures, the ubiquitous resort typology currently in Bali and other tropical destinations paradoxically emphasises hotel guests’ exclusive enjoyment, detached from the life of the local community. Located on one of the last remaining unoccupied beach front sites in Seminyak, the Potato Head Studios challenges the typical resort typology: the notion of “exclusivity” is abandoned; the resort is reconsidered as a part of the local community.

Hideout / Studio WNA

Daniel Tapia — Sun, 23 Jun 2019 17:00:00 +0000

Hideout project started in 2014 by developing a simple bamboo structure for a small bamboo house. Set on a river bank, the house offers a spectacular view of the lush jungle forest surrounding the house. The last couple of years did bring a lot of attention to bamboo as a sustainable and versatile building material here in Indonesia. Also thanks to the inspiring job of John Hardy and his family here in Bali.
