Architectural villa design plans and 3D renders for a Bali tropical home

Good villa design in Bali is a negotiation between three things that always pull against each other: what you imagine, what the plot allows, and what the budget covers. We start with the plot โ€” orientation, slope, views, prevailing wind and the local zoning setback rules โ€” because those constraints decide far more than a moodboard does. From there we develop a concept, test it in 3D so you can walk through it before a single brick is laid, and produce the full construction drawing set the builder and the PBG permit both need. Whether the villa is a private home or a rental investment changes the design completely, and we design for the actual goal.

What This Service Includes

Plot-First Concept

We design around your land's orientation, slope and views โ€” capturing the rice-field or ocean aspect and shading the right rooms from the afternoon sun.

3D Visualisation

Photoreal renders and walkthroughs so you approve the real thing, not a floor plan you have to imagine. Changes are cheap on screen and expensive in concrete.

Construction Drawing Set

Full architectural, structural and MEP drawings to Indonesian standards โ€” the documents the builder works from and the PBG permit requires.

Yield-Aware Layouts

For rental villas we plan bedroom count, privacy, pool placement and service access around occupancy and nightly rate, not just looks.

How It Works

  1. Brief & site study

    We capture your goals and budget and study the plot โ€” zoning, setbacks, slope, sun and views.

  2. Concept design

    Floor plans and massing options, refined with you until the layout is right.

  3. 3D renders

    Photoreal visuals and a walkthrough so you sign off on the real design.

  4. Construction set

    Complete architectural, structural and services drawings, ready for permit and build.

What It Costs

Design is usually charged as a percentage of build cost or a fixed fee for the full construction set, and it is credited into the project when we build it for you. As a guide, a complete design package for a single villa runs USD 6,000โ€“18,000 depending on size and complexity. See the pricing page.

Where It Fits in Your Project

A finished design feeds straight into the PBG permit and a turnkey build. If you have no land yet, start with land sourcing.

What Owners Ask Us

Do you design to a specific budget?
Yes โ€” budget is an input, not an afterthought. We design to a target cost and flag early if a feature pushes past it, so you decide trade-offs on paper rather than discovering them mid-build.
Can I bring my own concept or architect?
Absolutely. We can develop your sketch into a buildable set, value-engineer an existing design, or work alongside your architect to make a foreign design practical for Bali's climate and trades.
Do the drawings cover the PBG permit?
Yes โ€” our construction set is prepared to the standard the PBG (formerly IMB) application requires, and we lodge it as part of permits and legal.
How long does design take?
Concept to approved construction set is typically 4โ€“8 weeks depending on revisions and villa size, often overlapping with permit preparation.
Do you account for Bali's climate in the design?
Always โ€” cross-ventilation, deep overhangs, raised damp-proofing, covered outdoor living and drainage for monsoon rain are designed in, not bolted on later.
