Villa Omah Prana, Payangan, Bali, Indonesia

Villa Omah Prana is a circular home in the highlands of Payangan. The project follows one clear idea: a ring-shaped plan that places all rooms along the perimeter, orienting them toward the surrounding landscape. The living room opens up to both the courtyard and the exterior, creating a fluid transition, while the more private spaces — bedrooms and enclosed areas — remain air-conditioned and sheltered.

The entire building is organized around a single center point. Concentric circles define the plan, the pool, the pathways, and many built-in elements. This shared center gives the home a quiet sense of order. The geometry behaves almost like ripples expanding from one moment of impact — simple, readable, and consistent.

Materiality and surface treatment draw from Bali’s tradition of weaving. Brickwork laid in herringbone patterns, interlaced wall textures, and subtle geometric motifs reinterpret local craft in a contemporary way. These details add tactility and depth without overwhelming the architecture. The house invites close inspection; it is rich in detail but remains calm and grounded.

A cinematic sensibility runs through the project. Some of the curvature and the atmosphere reference early Ken Adam sketches for Moonraker — especially the clarity of a bold geometric move and the way space can feel choreographed without being theatrical.

This resonates with my approach: simple ideas, strong enough to be memorable, paired with tactile surfaces and crafted details.

Villa Omah Prana is guided by one conceptual gesture, strengthened by materiality and craft, and quietly open to the landscape that surrounds it.
