Guides on design, build & permits
Practical answers to the questions owners in Bali & Lombok ask most.
What is BIM (Revit) and why it matters for projects in Bali
BIM unites architecture, structure, and MEP in one connected 3D model, so designs are more accurate and clash less on site.
PBG & SLF in Bali: the process, documents, and order
PBG is approval to build to technical standards; SLF certifies a finished building is fit to use. Usually both are needed, in that order.
Should you contact an architect before or after buying land?
Ideally before you buy. A quick check of zoning, access, and building potential can save you from a risky or hard-to-build plot.
Estimating the cost to build a villa in Bali: what drives the price
Cost splits into design fees and construction cost. All figures are reference-only and negotiable, based on the project's scope and scale.
Building remotely: how we work with overseas clients
We regularly work with clients who aren't in Bali, via scheduled progress reports, photos, videos, and online meetings at key milestones.
Principles of tropical architecture for Bali & Lombok
Shade, cross-ventilation, and soft natural light keep spaces comfortable in a tropical climate, without relying entirely on air conditioning.
