Text description provided by the architect. Cala Blanca is a 4-bedroom residence located in an exclusive villa hotel called “Biombo Secrets”. Only 800m away from the coast of Pererenan, Bali. This compound is a collection of handpicked villas suitable for anyone looking for a holiday in Bali, as well as an accommodation experience designed with architectural thought in mind. Other famous villas such as Villa Cala Bona Bali, Villa Cala Blanca Bali and Villa Cala Terra Bali are part of the complex.
The land area of Villa Cala Blanca is 450 m². The challenge of the project was to design these homes to maximize space, so each house itself would feel spacious. All layouts have been carefully considered to conquer and utilize all small spaces and corners. We chose to design the villa with a long volume on the longest side of the land to create a large floor plan so that we would have greater visual amplitude and less interference from the neighboring villas. Additionally, the level differences between the villas make privacy one of the successes of the project.
In order to maximize the use of plot space, all villas are designed with a separate parking lot and have a common entrance and access corridor, which is one of the unique features of this special complex. Entering the hallway, a winding walkway leads you to the villa, surrounded by lush green, natural stone and rooftops that almost touch each other along the way.
Upon entering the villa, you enter the living area, where a high sloping wooden ceiling covers the kitchen, living room and dining room, becoming part of the same space. In this area you can already become part of one of our signature concepts: bringing nature indoors. The palm trees and plants surrounding the sunken sofa area and kitchen are part of the house, as are the furniture or other elements. Nature is a supplement to good health. It lowers blood pressure, stabilizes heart rate, and reduces the production of stress hormones. We have been practicing this concept in our own residence for the past seven years and we believe every day that it is something we want to incorporate as part of our designs. Other elements of these biophilic homes are the need for natural light and ventilation and the use of natural materials such as wood and stone, which naturally bring about a sense of physical and mental comfort.
Cala Blanca is spread over three floors with a total of four luxurious bedrooms. Three of these are located on the ground floor, while the first floor is dedicated to a luxurious master suite opening to a spacious terrace. The basement is considered an entertainment nook that won’t disturb others sleeping in the bedrooms upstairs. It has a relaxing bar and a state-of-the-art cinema room, as well as basic services. The two bedrooms on the first floor have direct access to the garden, which extends one of its hallmarks: a saltwater pool.
The swimming pool itself is an architectural design. The organic design features custom marble blocks and smooth slopes to mimic a turquoise beach. Nestled in the shadow of a mini coconut jungle, it offers residents a slice of paradise at home. What sets Cala Blanca apart is its intentional dialogue with Bali’s lush tropical vegetation. The design seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor spaces, cultivating an intimate relationship between nature and the home. Local materials such as wood and stone blend harmoniously, and the contrasting shapes of the cement-infused modern foam work highlight their authenticity.
In Cala Blanca, as in our other projects, we tried to combine the timeless charm of Bali with the sophistication of contemporary design. Harnessing the power of architecture to enhance our living experiences and connect us more deeply with nature and the world around us.
