Living Designs Bali

A landscape should never be a template.

It should belong to a specific piece of earth - its light, its wind, its soil, its horizon. And it should belong just as deeply to the family who will live within it.

Good design responds to place. Great design responds to people in a particular season of their lives — young children running barefoot, quiet mornings before school, long lunches that turn into evenings, parents slowly reclaiming stillness as the years unfold.

What we draw on paper is only the beginning. Over time, trees stretch wider than we imagined, shadows fall in new ways, textures soften, and the garden reveals forms we could only have hoped for during the initial planning.

A landscape isn’t static.
It grows with the land.
It grows with the family.
And if it’s done right, it becomes inseparable from both.

🌿✨ Living Designs Bali had the pleasure of joining the Jia Curated Design Expo this year at the breathtaking abandoned theme park just north of Sanur. We had such a blast creating alongside so many talented designers, and we’re especially grateful to our amazing Sanur team who brought our installation to life.

Huge thanks to our incredible partners who made it all possible:

🙏🏼 — for sponsoring our live aquascape with aquarium, hardware, and softscape. You guys were amazing!
🗿 — for your hand-carved batu paras statues, carved wood, and water feature that made our display unforgettable.
🎨 — for donating stunning Balinese antiques that anchored our installation in the rich tapestry of Balinese art and design.

We couldn’t have done it without you all. Here’s to creativity, collaboration, and celebrating Bali’s design spirit together! 🌺✨

Designing drought tolerant doesn’t mean it can’t look lush.
