What a Balinese Builder Really Thinks of Modern Bali Villas

A Balinese builder who has built in Bali for 30 years walks through a modern villa in Bali and gives his honest opinion: the design, the materials, the details he loves and the ones he would change. Made Sudita is a local builder and a member of his village Banjar, the traditional Balinese community council. He remembers Canggu when it was only rice fields, worked abroad in Australia and Belgium, and came back to build at home. In this episode he explains what foreigners should know before building or living in Bali: why you never build higher than a temple, why building near a river is risky, and how the Banjar works with newcomers who want to stay, live or do business in the village. Bali Forerunners is a documentary series about the people who shaped Bali's creative and cultural identity. Filmed at a villa by OXO. #Bali #BaliVilla #BaliForerunners    • What a Balinese Builder Really Thinks of M...
