Villa Vastu is a compound of -3-major buildings and -3-smaller edifices, a large swimming pool, a lotus pond and a parking area. This ensemble is set in a plush tropical garden of 3700 m² with thousands of flowers and plants, circled by a parameter wall. The view opens to the magnificent panorama of the palm tree studded valley of the Ayung river and the range of extinct volcanoes.
THE DESIGN
The Design of Villa Vastu is somewhat unique. It is based on the age-old Indian science of building, named VASTU (comparable to Feng Shui). Vastu is Hindu-born and so connects to Bali with its marvelous Hindu culture. You will feel the difference.
The design also reveals a credible “green footprint”. For instance: waste water is cleaned and filtered in a multi-level cascade and serves as water for banana trees. Fresh water is lifted from a proprietary deep well. Solid sanitary waste is degraded biologically. All roofs are covered with the expensive alang-alang (thatched roof). The beautiful furniture is made from handwoven water hyazinthe roots.
Villa Vastu is also home of many valuable, original Balinese pieces of art, such as: paintings, sculptures (wood and limestone) and songket (embroidered handwoven textiles). They pay homage to the artistic genius of Paradise Island.
THE HOUSES
Villa Vastu consists of -3-larger buildings (and -3- smaller buildings) with a built space of app.1009 m².
