Sitting on the cliffside of Nyanyi Beach in Bali, this project delivered on the opportunity to create a standout destination for events, dining, arts, and holistic hedonism combined with playful relaxation, where unique iconic architecture overlooks the ocean. The master plan features a series of groundbreaking naturally inspired buildings that create a hub of activity that is conceived according to Fibonacci sequences that connect flow and movement throughout the property.
Central to the complex is the main beach club which appears as a vortex-like structure, built of bamboo and basalt which serves as the main restaurant area, and is covered with layers of woven shades to keep the interior comfortably bright during the daytime and illuminated at night. Evoking a feminine personality that balances the masculine presence of the lighthouse tower, it is a versatile space for dining, workshops, and entertainment. Connected to the restaurant is a lagoon-style pool facing the sea, into an underground 'Utopia VIP Club' with a thrilling 5m river slide. Elevated platforms made of recycled materials intertwine with the forest, offering playful spaces like nets, tunnels, and climbing routes that blend with the natural surroundings. 'Elysium' located in a secluded corner, serves as a serene space for ceremonial events such as meditation, weddings, and yoga. Constructed with lightweight sandwich panels, the building features geometric lines that filter light into the interior, fostering a sense of unity and connection with the surroundings. Intertwined with all these buildings are enchanted gardens, art including giant sculptures, and inspiring mini venues whose structures serve to create intrigue and adventure throughout the whole site.
