Nestled in the emerging Nyanyi area of Bali, Indonesia, this villa which was designed and built by Balitecture, encompasses a compact 65 sqm. The design ingeniously maximizes its limited footprint, resulting in an unexpectedly spacious villa highlighted by a double-height living room and expansive floor-to-ceiling glass facade. Situated on a modest 90 sqm plot, the villa integrates beautifully landscaped gardens, a terrazzo pool, an outdoor shower, and multiple entertainment zones.
The exterior façade exemplifies tranquil sophistication with a pristine white palette, complemented by artfully integrated large glass and tropical hues. Inside, sleek lines and tactile textures adorn the interior, striking a delicate balance between minimalism and sensory allure. With a captivating interplay of light and shadow, the visual experience throughout the villa is elevated.
The asymmetric slanted roof and double-height ceiling are the distinctive features. Not only is it unique, but also adds visual interest that creates a sense of spaciousness with its double-height ceilings, inviting abundant natural light and ventilation.
“It is a testament to Balitecture’s commitment to innovative design. By integrating the slanted roof and double-height ceilings, the design optimizes natural airflow, reducing the reliance on mechanical ventilation systems,” said Yusuf, Architectural Coordinator at Balitecture.
The incorporation of locally sourced materials further minimizes the project’s ecological footprint while supporting the local economy. The structure features elegant Jimbaran stone, adding a touch of organic warmth and texture to the exterior façade. Inside, the refined beauty of wooden flooring enhances the interior spaces, reflecting serenity.
“Combining 3 color palettes from white paint, warm woods and black aluminum ensures this tropical concept design stands out,” added Yusuf.
Named “Putih,” meaning ‘white’ in Indonesian, this design showcases an elegantly elevated mezzanine-level bedroom with a dedicated work desk and abundant storage. On the lower level, a generous lounge area is adorned with floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in Bali’s sunlight. The open-plan arrangement blends the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, fostering a continuous area.
Externally, residents can bask in the sun-drenched pool, relax on the bamboo swing, or unwind within the outdoor seating enclave. An extra outdoor shower is thoughtfully provided for refreshing post-swim moments or capturing cherished memories.
Despite its compact size, The Putih comes equipped with all the home comforts needed, while only requiring a small footprint of space. This ensures a functional and cozy living space while maintaining an innovative approach.
The conception of The Putih arose from the growing preference for simplified lives and living spaces. Designed to be fluid and flexible, the villa adapts effortlessly to the residents’ needs. The innovative architecture seamlessly integrates the tropical lifestyle with contemporary style, culminating in a harmonious and dynamic living experience.
