About
Type: Villa
Location: Canggu
Status: Residential
Build area: 1,460m²
A courtyard villa organised around sculptural architecture and layered outdoor spaces.
Mandala The Oasis was designed in collaboration with Mandala Places following the successful completion of Ulu Cliffhouse.
Located in Canggu, the villa was conceived as a private retreat that balances openness with privacy within a dense residential setting.
The arrival sequence is defined by a restrained brutalist façade that shields the interior from neighbouring properties. Passing through the entrance threshold reveals a contrasting sense of openness, as four identical guest suites are elevated above the arrival walkway, creating visual connections towards the surrounding rice fields.
At the centre of the villa sits a sculptural open-air folly that forms the spatial heart of the project. The structure features large carved openings that frame views through the surrounding spaces while allowing light and shadow to shift throughout the day. Suspended above a still reflection pond, a frangipani tree appears to hover within the structure, creating a striking focal point within the courtyard.
Beyond this central space, the villa opens into the main living areas where the kitchen, dining, lounge and entertainment spaces are connected in a continuous sequence. A 30-metre infinity pool with a sunken bar runs along the edge of the garden, while the upper level houses the master suite with a private rooftop terrace and sunken lounge.
Interior design was developed by the in-house team at Mandala Places, with artwork commissioned by Jake Ross and x_y_o_k_i_i_x. Lighting design was by Studio Nimmersatt. Photography by Indra Wiras.
