Shade is everything in Bali. We design and build timber pergolas over terraces and pools, carports, poolside gazebos and traditional Balinese bale — open-sided pavilions perfect for lounging, massage or outdoor dining.

Structures are built from durable hardwoods with engineered joints and footings, and can be roofed with alang-alang grass thatch, ulin shingles, clay tiles, glass, polycarbonate or left open with climbing plants.

Local conditions: Uluwatu

Uluwatu is drier than the rest of south Bali but exposed to strong sun, wind and salt spray on the cliffs. Outdoor joinery needs UV-resistant finishes, stainless fixings and timber chosen for weather resistance.

Popular styles in Uluwatu

Uluwatu style is coastal and raw: natural timber, limestone, concrete, rattan and bold indoor-outdoor living with ocean views.
