Samskriti

Cultural Center | Bali | 2016

‘Samskriti’ which means ‘culture’ in Sanskrit contains every elements that made a civilization, including art. The idea of this design is to make a space that can preserve, promote and hopefully someday will produce its own culture. The design purpose is to create small-scaled exhibition spaces that combine indoor and outdoor and connect them with corridors, while keep respecting the ‘Sanga Mandala’ concept for the programming. Jimbaran is well known for the seaside landscape and culture, thus making it as the main inspiration for the design elements such as water feature to create seaside ambiance, the cream color of the hardscape which represents sandy beach, and the recycled boat timber used as the facade cover. This theme is a strong representation of Indonesia as a maritime nation. The project was selected for the top 15 entry of the Jimbaran Art and Culture Center Competition. It was a collaboration effort with Dicky Tanumihardja of Recode Nation and Amar Djihadsyah.

Therefore, this design will introduce CSW as “Cakra Selaras Wahana’, which is stands for “Cakra” – circle shape, “Selaras” – harmonious with the surrounding, and “ Wahana” – transit space for connecting the bus and train users.

Mah-Mo

Private Residence | Jakarta | 2012

Casa de Montana

Private Residence | Sentul | 2016

Located on a corner site, at the foot of Mount Pancar, the site faces directly to one of the rivers that originate from the mountain. Being on a corner site gives the house two advantages: unobstructed views and also maximum natural sunlight. Since the beginning of the design exploration, the architect strives to respond to the trapezoid shape site and the two different axes: one that is parallel to the neighbor and one that is parallel to the street. Every room in this house maximizes natural sunlight, hence saving the energy bill. Having the inner court at the center of the house allows more rooms to benefit from it.
