Villa Louvre

This villa brings luxury and comfort together with a clean, modern tropical design. The dominant broken white colour palette gives the whole space a calm, elegant feel, while touches of natural stone and warm wood keep it grounded and inviting.

White-framed, small-paned glass doors fill the walls on every floor of Villa Louvre, a Modern Tropical design for Bali. They sit against white render and screens of diagonal timber lattice under timber-slatted soffits. Planting fills deep planters along the balcony edges and trails down the facade, so from the garden the upper floors read as green ledges.

A green-tiled pool fills the courtyard at the foot of the house, with a weathered timber deck on one side and crazy-paved stone on the other, and a bedroom opens straight onto it. On the top floor, a long terrace under a timber-slatted pergola holds an outdoor kitchen with a barbecue, and a dining table that runs most of its length.

The three-bedroom plan keeps to broken white and pale timber inside. A sunken lounge with blue cushions faces the courtyard and the dining table is lit by woven pendants. The bedrooms have slatted timber headboard walls with shelving lit from within. One bathroom puts a freestanding tub outdoors against a wall of rough white stone, and in the garden a stone-lined arched niche holds a cushioned bench.
