Magical Nights in the Bamboo House Take You into Jungles of Bali!

There are few occasions when you feel like packing your bags and taking the next flight to a destination as soon as you see the image of an amazing getaway. The Bamboo House in Bali is one such amazing setting that is eco-friendly, sustainable and ensures that you get the best possible views of the river next to it and the jungle beyond. This is well and truly a remarkable escape that was planned in 2014 and brought to life gradually over the year. The best part about it is undoubtedly the use of bamboo as the sole construction material; making the structure ever greener!

Stunning bamboo structure Hideout Bali connects you with nature once again

Designed by Jarmil Lhoták + Alena Fibichová, the Hideoutmoves away from low-quality building materials and uses exclusive bamboo of high standard derived from local mountains in Karangasem. This special, locally sourced bamboo has low-sugar content and high strength, making it perfect for construction of eco-friendly buildings. The Hideout stands tall and towers above the normal jungle landscape and acts as a perch that offers bird’s eyeview of the scenery outside.

There is an outside shower in the garden here and a bedroom on the top level with triangular windows comes as a result of the vernacular A-shaped roof used for the design. A perfect escape surrounded by breathtaking scenery! [Photography: Sasha Juliard, Valentino Luis, Jordan Hammond, Emily Hutchinson, Reis Junk]

  • Edgecliff Residence

    Taking advantage of its unique site in Austin’s eclectic Travis Heights neighborhood on the southern shores of Lady Bird Lake, the Edgecliff Residence is a play on contrasts: light and shadow, open and closed, organic and orthogonal. Designed for a couple of empty-nesters on a modest budget, the home’s contemporary aesthetic is balanced by the desire to respect the scale of the existing neighborhood. From the street, the Edgecliff Residence is characterized by a rainscreen made of galvanized electrical conduit—an inventive, low-cost solution that provides shade and privacy while filtering and diffusing sunlight. Throughout the day, the volume enclosed by the screen is alternately camouflaged and highlighted as the reflective metal responds to changes in the sun and sky. In contrast, the rear of the house opens up to the natural landscape and views of downtown Austin via large windows and cantilevered terraces. Below, the terrain falls away steeply to a public hike-and-bike trail before meeting the lake. The trapezoidal floor plan responds directly to the constraints of the long, narrow site—one side parallels the street while the other runs adjacent to the site’s natural contours. The lower level contains an open-air carport, foyer, and two guest rooms; the terrain on the uphill side is retained by a low wall made of weathering steel. The main level houses the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The open floor plan highlights the dichotomy between the two halves of the site: ribbon windows screen the view of the street opposite picture windows that frame the treetops and lake. The upper level includes the master suite as well as a private study and media room. Doors from the master bath and study open onto another outdoor terrace that offers sweeping views of downtown Austin.
