The Courtyard House

This project reimagines an older Balinese house into a calm, contemporary home designed for modern island living. The renovation focused on creating seamless indoor–outdoor flow, maximizing natural light, and bringing a fresh sense of spaciousness to a compact layout.

At the heart of the home is the private courtyard sanctuary—a lush, enclosed outdoor space featuring integrated seating, natural wood decking, tropical greenery, and a custom wall mural. This courtyard acts as a second living room, inviting relaxation, meditation, and moments of quiet in a beautifully styled garden setting.

Inside, the house was completely refreshed with a soft, neutral palette, built-in seating, and functional custom shelving carved directly into the walls. The living room blends modern minimalism with handcrafted local touches, while large sliding doors blur the line between interior and exterior spaces.

The kitchen and dining area were redesigned for efficiency and comfort, incorporating clean lines, updated appliances, and warm natural materials. Bedrooms were simplified and brightened, with improved storage solutions and fresh finishes for a more peaceful atmosphere. The bathroom renovation features modern fixtures and clean geometries, elevating the home’s overall comfort.
