SUNRISE RESORT GILI AIR

We were fortunate to be engaged to design 5 double-storey villas on the edge of the beach resort facing the sunrise. To take advantage of the prime spot, the villas were designed to have a bedroom and an outdoor bath on the ground, and an open living on the upper floor to allow guests to enjoy sunrise straight from their villa. The style pays homage to the traditional Sasak architecture of Lombok and was inspired by the form of a “Lumbung Padi’' the roof adopts a similar shape and is thatched with palm leaves.
