Krea House
Krea House is a private villa in Sanur, Bali, designed as an off plan project that explores how thoughtful planning can transform a compact site into a comfortable home. Built on 150 square meters of land, we applied a purposeful layout strategy to fit three bedrooms within a two story villa without feeling crowded. The ground floor is arranged as an open communal space with a pool, living, dining, and kitchen area, while the upper floor is dedicated to private rooms.
The facade features Ulin sirap, typically used for roofing, reinterpreted here to create a natural and refined appearance that ages beautifully over time. Technology also plays a role through a smart home system that controls lighting, access, and daily functions.
To respond to Sanur’s warm climate, we introduced a terracotta cooling system that naturally lowers temperature through evaporative cooling, allowing fresh air to flow into the main living spaces and enhance comfort throughout the house.
