LOOKING ACROSS VILLA TEMAN ROOF LINE TO THE SETTING SUN. THE ROOF FORM IS MAKING AN IMPACT ON THE SKYLINE OF LOVINA AND GENERATING A LOT OF POSITIVE INTEREST IN THE VILLAGE. THE LOVINA BEACH IS JUST BEYOND THE TREE LINE AND PALMS ON THE LEFT OF THIS PHOTO AND IS ONLY 70 METRES AS THE BALINESE CROW FLIES
THE REFLECTIVE SARKING (TO KEEP THE ROOM BELOW COOLER AND DRY) IS NOW BEING INSTALLED OVER THE BEDEG BAMBOO CEILING LINING. TIMBER BATTENS HOLD THE SARKING IN PLACE AWAITING THE INSTALLTION OF THE ROOF TILES. THE ROOF ON THE LEFT IS OVER ONE OF THE PREMIUM VILLAS WHILE THE HIGHER GABLE ROOF ON THE RIGHT IS THE ROOF OF THE DELUXE VILLA. THE BUILDER IS DOING A GREAT AT MAINTAINING THE PROGRAMME WITH 3 MONTHS LEFT UNTIL THE FIRST GUESTS START ARRIVING - WILL THAT BE YOU???
THE ROOF TAKES SHAPE ON THE DELUXE VILLA, THIS VIEW IS FROM THE JALAN (ROAD) LOOKING TOWARDS THE ENTRY TO THE VILLA. THE ENCLOSING GARDEN WALLS WILL BE CONSTRUCTED OVER THE COMING WEEKS TO PROVIDE FULL PRIVACY TO THE VILLA. THIS ROOF WILL EVENTUALLY BE FULLY TILED TO MATCH THE BEDROOM WING
LOOKING ACROSS THE PRIVATE COURTYARD FROM THE LIVING AREA OF THE DELUXE VILLA TO THE BEDROOM WING. THIS COURTYARD IS NOW READY FOR POOL AND CONCOURSE TILING AND ONCE IT HAS BEEN PLANTED WITH LUSH TROPICAL PLANTS IT WILL BE READY FOR SUN LOUNGES AND YOU.
A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE LAST PHOTOS - THE BEDEG WOVEN BAMBOO CEILING LINING HAS BEEN INSTALLED OVER THE ROOF RAFTERS AND CREATING A VERY INTERESTING CEILING AS SHOWN IN THESE PHOTOS. THIS CEILING IS THE ONE LOCATED IN THE DELUXE VILLA.
LOOKING ACROSS THE DINING AREA TOWARDS THE FRONT ENTRY OF THE LIVING PAVILION OF THE DELUXE VILLA. THE HIGH CEILING ALLOWS FOR AN UPER MEZZANINE FLOOR OVER THE KITCHEN AND BAR. THAT AREA IS THE TV AREA AND ALLOWS FOR ACCOMMODATION OF AN ADDITIONAL 2 ADULTS (OR CHILDREN) FOR A TOTAL OF SIX PEOPLE. THE LARGE GABLES AT EACH END CATCHES THE BREEZE TO HELP KEEP THE VILLA COOL.

PREPARING THE CEILING MATERIAL - HAND WOVEN BAMBOO BEDEG.

IT IS THEN WASHED AND SEALED AND READY FOR INSTALLATION OVER THE TOP OF THE EXPOSED RAFTERS.
THE FINISHES ARE NOW BEING DONE IN THE BATHROOMS, HERE YOU CAN SEE THE ROCK WALL AND THE STONE PILASTER IN THE SHOWER. THE CURVED GARDEN WALLS AND SETDOWN BENCH WILL HAVE A TERRAZZO FINISH MATCHING THE FLOOR
"As complicated as it may look, the building layout is really very simple" SAYS THE ARCHITECT, "It just looks over designed".

THE VIEW FROM THE ROAD WHERE THE FRONT ENTRY POINT WILL BE AND LOOKING TOWARDS VILLA ONE ON THE LEFT AND VILLA TWO ON THE RIGHT. VILLA THREE IS LOCATED BEHIND VILLA TWO ON THE EXTREME RIGHT HAND SIDE. THE FRAMING OF THE ROOF OVER VILLA ONE IS NEARLY FINISHED AND THE ROOF FRAMING OVER VILLA TWO IS TAKING SHAPE. VILLA TWO IS HIGHER AS IT HAS A MEZZANINE FLOOR FOR ADDITIONAL SLEEPING AREA AND THE TV ROOM
LOOKING AT THE VILLAS FROM AN ELEVATED LOCATION, THE BEDROOM WING CAN BE SEEN IN THE BACKGROUND BEYOND THE ROOF FRAMING. MIKE IS JUST BACK FROM A 9 DAY TRIP OVER THERE TO SUPERVISE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE ROOF TO ENSURE THAT HIS IDEA FOR A SIMPLE ROOF FRAME IS ACHIEVED.
JUDGING BY THIS PHOTO TAKEN JUST BEFORE HE LEFT, HE FAILED MISERABLY IN HIS SUPERVISING ROLE TO ACHIEVE A SIMPLE ROOF FRAME. THIS LOOKS MORE LIKE A CASE OF PICK UP STICKS GONE WRONG THAN A SIMPLE BALINESE ROOF. HE ASSURES US THAT IT WILL LOOK SENSATIONAL ON COMPLETION - DO YOU MEAN THERE IS EVEN MORE TIMBER TO GO INTO THIS ROOF???
LOOKING ACROSS THE COURTYARD FROM THE OPEN LIVING, MEALS AND KITCHEN AREA TOWARDS THE TWO BEDROOMS ON THE OTHER SIDE. THE PLUNGE POOL IS ON THE RIGHT, SUN LOUNGES WILL BE IN THE CENTRE AND THE BALANCE OF THE COURTYARD WILL BE PLANTED OUT WITH MANY LUSH TROPICAL PLANTS - PASS THE COCKTAIL LIST PLEASE.
LOOKING BACK FROM THE BEDROOMS TOWARDS THE OPEN LIVING AREA. INSIDE THERE IS A BAR AREA, KITCHEN AND AMPLE BANQUETTE SEATING ALONG THE PERIMETER WALLS - SOUNDS LIKE A PARTY ROOM TO ME. ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE PHOTO IS THE FIRST OF NUMEROUS FRANGIPANI TREES TO BE PLANTED. THIS INTERNAL COURTYARD WITH ITS OWN PLUNGE POOL HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PROVIDE MAXIMUM PRIVACY AND TRANQUILITY - PASS ME ANOTHER COCKTAIL PLEASE
ONE OF THE FEMALE WORKERS PLASTERING AND PAINTING THE CEILING IN A BEDROOM. THE FEATURE WALL BEHIND THE BED IS NEARLY COMPLETED AND THE FULL LENGTH BENCH HAS BEEN POURED
THE NEXT DAY, THE ROOM ALMOST LOOKS READY FOR GUESTS WITH THE CEILING DONE, THE FEATURE WALL COMPLETED AND THE AIR CONDITIONING INSTALLED. IF YOU LIKE THE IDEA OF NO DOORS AND NO BEDS THEN THIS ROOM IS FOR YOU
THE ENSUITE BATHROOMS ARE TAKING SHAPE WITH THE CORNER SHOWER FORMED AND THE GARDEN WALLS DONE. YOU CAN SEE HERE THAT THE BATHROOMS ARE PARTLY OPEN TO THE SKY ABOVE THE GARDEN AREAS. THE FLOOR WILL BE POLISHED TERRAZZO AND SOME FEATURE STONEWORK IS TO BE ADDED TO THE WALLS
AT THE RIGHT HERE YOU CAN SEE THE SKETCH OF WHAT WE WANTED FOR THE BATHROOM VANITY BENCH. THIS SKETCH HAS BEEN NAILED TO WALL SO IT DOES NOT GET LOST. THIS PHOTO AND THE NEXT ONE BELOW SHOW THE ADVANCEMENT FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY. SEEMS LIKE A MINIMAL TRANSITION FROM ONE TO THE OTHER. OUR BUILDER IS DOING A TERRIFIC JOB BRINGING OUR IDEAS TOGETHER AND IT IS ALL VERY EXCITING TO SEE THEM BECOMING A REALITY.
THE VANITY BENCH WITH SPACE FOR TWO VANITY BOWLS AND PLENTY OF ADDITIONAL SPACE FOR THOSE OVER SIZED MAKE UP CASES. PLANTS WILL BE IN THE TWO LEVELS OF INDOOR GARDEN AREA ON THE RIGHT. LOOKING GOOD SO FAR..............
