Lokalé
Interiors, custom furniture, and outdoor design, set within a sculptural bamboo venue in Pererenan.
The Project
A venue shaped around a single bamboo gesture.
Lokalé is a commercial luxury villa complex in Pererenan, one of Canggu's fastest-growing neighbourhoods. This is its lobby. The building itself, a sculptural bamboo structure with a shell-form roof, was designed by the project's architect. Our brief began the moment you stepped inside it, and the moment you stepped back out.
For the design thinking behind a lobby like this, see boutique hotel lobby design in Bali.
For the bamboo, timber and stone used here, see sustainable materials for Bali villas.
Bali Best Design picked the project up from there. Interior design, custom furniture, and the outdoor decks and gardens were carried as one continuous process, so the joinery, the loose pieces, and the landscape work were resolved together rather than handed between vendors.

The Approach
Every space was resolved on screen first.
Before construction began, each room existed as a fully rendered visual: materials, proportions, lighting, and furniture placement agreed in advance. It takes the guesswork out of a build: the client sees the finished venue before committing, and our workshop builds to a resolved drawing rather than an approximation.
The pairs below set our renders beside the finished photographs: the same spaces, as drawn and as built.
From Render to Reality
The Setting
The bamboo shell, designed by the project's architect, defines Lokalé's silhouette. Our interior and outdoor work picks up its language: timber, rattan, and woven texture, carried through every space we shaped.
The Reception
A rattan sunburst wall behind a marble-topped desk: a custom centrepiece built in our parent company Bali Best Buy's workshop to the rendered design.
The Lounge
Woven wall discs, layered seating, and a calm material palette: a space designed to feel settled from the first day it opened.
The Terrace
Open-air seating designed for daily hospitality use, with materials chosen to hold up to sun, rain, and salt air without losing their warmth.
“Design and manufacturing under one roof, so the chair in the render is the chair that ships.”

Start Your Project
Planning a hospitality project in Bali?
Lokalé's interiors, custom furniture, and outdoor program came together with one team: designed in advance, built in our workshop, installed as one. We would be glad to do the same for your project. See how we work on interior design in Bali.
