Difficult Site Becomes Gorgeous Indonesian Resort

A long and narrow site was offered to Robin Nederkoorn by a developer for less because it had a very, very steep side access.

Architect Popo Danes saw the incredible potential in the narrow strip despite the dificulties and design challenge, and advised his client to go ahead.

The result is the fabulous Longhouse, or the Tiara Nusa Estate, Goa Gong, Bukit Jimbaran-Bali in Indonesia.

The rocky and barren site was so steep that it was almost written off, but the architect has made it work.

The challenging access is not for the unfit.

But this only makes the end result, once attained, feel like something of a Shangri La.

Having climbed the steep stairways, the mountaintop resort becomes all the more glorious a destination.

With four floors in front but only two at the back, the uneven land contour is an integral part of the design.
