Bali Architecture Design Process

Bali Architecture Design Process

See our Bali Architecture Design Process, from consultation to detailed design. All projects are approached with clarity, creativity, and client alignment.

1
Step 1. Initial Consultation & Site Review
Every project begins with a conversation. We take the time to understand who you are, what you envision, and the constraints or ambitions that shape your project — from timeline and investment to lifestyle or brand identity. Once we’ve aligned on the broader vision, we conduct a thorough site review. Whether in person or remote, this step allows us to understand the physical context: sunlight, views, access, topography, vegetation, and neighboring influences. This foundational insight sets the tone for how the project can unfold — unlocking design potential while identifying risks early.

Step 2. Project Brief & Feasibility
Together, we shape a clear and actionable project brief. We map out spatial needs, performance goals, aesthetics, and cultural or environmental considerations. At the same time, we assess feasibility — analyzing local regulations, site limitations, and logistical realities that may affect the outcome. This stage is essential for bridging your aspirations with what's actually possible. It gives both creative direction and practical grounding, forming the lens through which all design decisions will follow. We also explore early program options, cost indicators, and a project roadmap that supports confident decision-making.

Step 3. Concept & Schematic Design
With clarity on intent and scope, we begin exploring the form, feel, and flow of the project. We present moodboards, sketches, spatial diagrams, and schematic layouts that bring the vision to life. This is a highly collaborative phase — designed to encourage your input and ensure we’re heading in the right direction before committing to full detail. It’s where storytelling, functionality, and place all begin to intertwine. Every idea is backed by intent: how people will move through space, how the structure will breathe, how the design will feel over time. This process lays the creative and emotional groundwork of the project.

Step 4. Detailed Design & Documentation
Once the direction is approved, we develop a comprehensive design package that integrates architecture, interiors, engineering, and landscape. This includes detailed floorplans, elevations, material specifications, lighting plans, structural coordination, and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing) layouts — depending on the service scope. These documents form the basis for permit approvals, construction tendering, and coordination with contractors. Our aim is not just to document, but to translate vision into precise, buildable drawings while protecting the integrity of the original concept. This is where design intention becomes executable reality.

Realisation & Delivery

CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION

Once the design is complete, we remain actively involved to ensure it’s executed as intended. During construction, we act as your representative — reviewing drawings, answering contractor queries, and making site visits as needed.

We coordinate with the builder, resolve design-related issues, and monitor quality and progress against the approved drawings and specifications.

If changes are required during the build, we assess and document them carefully to maintain design integrity and client approval.

This phase ensures the design is not only envisioned — but delivered, aligned with your expectations and the original concept.

FF&E PROCUREMENT

Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment (FF&E) 

We offer full-service procurement to bring your interiors to life — without the stress. From sourcing and customization to logistics and installation, we manage every step with care.

FF&E refers to all the movable items that complete a space: furniture, lighting, decor, appliances, art, and accessories. We coordinate directly with trusted suppliers and fabricators to ensure each piece meets the design intent, budget, and delivery timeline.

Whether you’re outfitting a single villa or an entire hospitality project, we deliver seamless, design-led solutions — all the way to the final cushion.
