Description

This renovated house sits on a 317 square meters lot at a small residential complex in Denpasar, Bali. Located in front of an elementary school where noise and school activities indirectly impact the urban house during the day time. Over than 4 meters high lattice wall covers up the house in order to reduce the noise that comes from the school. In addition to that, it conceals the residents’ activities inside the house. Made of a thousand modular arranged rosters (cement block), this wall also appears as the icon of the urban house. A combination of loose pebbles and wooden deck lead us to the entrance. Passing through a large pivot door, we are being surprised by a small garden that lies behind the main door, so that we can barely know which area belongs to the outside and the inside. There is no exact border between one another. Not likely similar to any other common houses, this house doesn’t come with a guest room as we step into the house. The journey in this house starts with a hallway that can be used as a foyer to welcome the guests. At the end of the hallway, we are pleased by a feature wall made out of bricks which bring warmth into the house.
