Located in the tranquil village of Pererenan, Bali, Akashi Bali is a unique six-bedroom home that reimagines tropical living through a vibrant blend of creativity, light, and movement. Designed by Alexis Dornier, this 1385 m² residence is a masterful expression of modern architecture filled with joyful spirit.

🎨 Sculptural Void Inspiring Wonder

The heart of the home features a bold architectural element — a sculptural central space that floods the house with natural light and ventilation. Within this area lies a curved sliding element, serving as both a playful center and a functional design solution. More than just an innovation, the sliding element invites interaction and joy, embodying the home's philosophy: architecture should inspire happiness.

A custom-designed handle system mimicking a flowing conveyor enhances the sense of movement through vertical space. Open floor plans and strategic views ensure this central area becomes a dynamic connector visually and physically linking the levels of the home.

🌿 Balance of Playfulness and Serenity

While the interior radiates kinetic energy, the lower level opens to a serene pool, offering moments of tranquility. Surrounded by exotic greenery crafted by Bali Landscape Company, the outdoor area emphasizes a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor spaces — a hallmark of Dornier's design.

The integration of natural materials, open spaces, and tropical flora reflects the beauty of Bali's climate and its potential for year-round indoor-outdoor living. This harmony between vibrancy and peace makes the home feel alive yet rooted.

✨ Synergy of Interior and Landscape

The interiors, designed in collaboration with Severiano and Alexis Dornier, reflect the home's overall philosophy: organic flow, tactile finishes, and openness to nature. Carefully selected materials and minimalist details ensure each space resonates warmly and with intention.
