Nestled within Bali’s secluded village, JuSt residence embodies a modern interpretation of Balinese design, harmonizing seamlessly with its surroundings. Despite being one of the tallest buildings in the area, with Its conventional facade and humble charm, it blends gracefully with the neighborhood’s aesthetic. Marzloff wants to emphasize on a timeless design as an homage to Bali’s rich cultural heritage and community, while still serving as a restful sanctuary for the client.
What client said?
“We sent a drone up on day one and found this beautiful view of all these terracotta roofs in this little village of Padonan. So we decided to build a little higher to ensure a rooftop access to this panoramic view, while staying humble through a modern Balinese design. This house celebrates the harmonious coexistence of modern comfort and the timeless splendor of Bali's terrain.”
Till Marzloff
Signature Marzloff use of natural stones and locally sourced material is on full display here. One element that is constant throughout is Balinese wall relief, Balinese style roof and stonework. The natural and earthy tone adds to its simplicity, while a spacious garden blends both indoor and outdoor living that creates a flow for the house.
“When building in a rural and small village, it is paramount to us to respect the neighborhood. And the highest form of respect to this area is to stay true to its landscape as much as possible. To add and not take away from it.”
