Casa Cemagi 2 Bedroom

Two-bedroom villa in the Cemagi 'Baliterranean' style: Mediterranean shapes (arches, curved walls, soft edges) over a tropical floorplan. Clean white interiors, natural finishes, no decorative noise. The bedrooms read as restful sleeping rooms rather than feature suites.

On a 91 m² plot in Cemagi, this two-bedroom design gives most of the open ground to water. A long, narrow pool runs beside the living room, with pale stone paving on one side and dense tropical planting on the other. It ends at a white boundary wall cut with an arched niche, a fitted bench and woven wall plates, and two woven loungers sit on a shallow ledge in the water.

The 101 m² plan follows the Tropical Mediterranean style Balitecture calls Baliterranean, and its ground floor is one open room under a slatted timber ceiling. A sunken lounge is set into the floor beside the glazing, the kitchen island is clad in terrazzo with timber stools pulled up to it, and the white stair climbs on floating timber treads with lit niches in the wall beneath. Grass and rattan pendants break up the white plaster.

Upstairs, the bedroom renders show an arched plaster headboard with small display niches, timber beams across the ceiling and full-height black steel glazing. Bathrooms use speckled terrazzo-look tiles, a freestanding speckled bath and timber ladders for towels.
