Villa Shaka

Bali, Indonesia // 2022 // role: Project Architect // Rowland Sauls Architecture

In Bali, an Italian comedian and a South African model with an infant child are starting their family life together. Their good friend is a German bachelor with his own company. These friends decide to buy a piece of land together and split it down the middle, build their houses there and be neighbors. I was commissioned to be their architect.

Villa Shaka was designed for the young family as a homey cottage with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. With exposed wood beams and custom steel sliding doors and windows, the house is a beautiful home, with lots of light and warmth in its palette.
