Villa Ubud 1 Bali

Villa Ubud 1

Breathtaking villa by renowned architect Alexis Dornier, designed around a collection of three historic artifacts, the design Twins House seeks to explore the boundaries of contemporary architecture and traditional Indonesian building styles.
Skylights and a floating mezzanine level highlight the three artefacts as ‘objet trouvés’. The house wants to be experienced in a three dimensional way by meandering along a transparent gallery, around a collection of objects in space. It forms plateaus to create different perspectives through the living room towards the inside and the surrounding exterior landscape. The gorgeous three bedroom glass walled home is very private. Enclosed living area overlooks the river and tropical forest. Under the loft like living room are two master guest suites with bathrooms – accessed through a suspended spiral staircase. The master bedroom is situated on the westerly end, forming a separate entity overlooking the swimming pool.
The composition seeks to give space and wall space to an eclectic collection of fine art, photography and design objects from mid century modern to traditional Balinese crafted wooden sculptures. The suspended ceiling is made from compressed bamboo fiber. All wooden floors are made from reclaimed teak wood. Transparent facades frame the buildings surroundings in the lush jungle of Bali.

Twinshouse is part of the Penjiwaan Community - a luxury compound like no other in Bali with 9 more houses. Penjiwaan is a Community of Musicians, Artists, Yogis, Surfers, Entrepreneurs and Investors in Mas, South Ubud. It's a melting pot where creative and successful people come together.
