Situated on the northern coast of Bali, the Tiing has been designed as a ‘reward for the intrepid’. Understanding that this project would need a point of differentiation to pull people out of the well-worn tourist paths of southern Bali, the Tiing is a boutique resort embedded into its local and cultural context.

Due to its remote location, the design deliberately leans on traditional materials and construction techniques. Knowing that concrete is the preferred construction method, and that bamboo is plentiful, a series of bamboo formed concrete walls were erected on site to create this important view corridor.

At each end, the walls become shear, referencing local Balinese gateways prevalent throughout the island. These gateways are highly decorated totems, shear-cut on the travel path to encourage the eye and the spirit to drift onwards.

About the
Professional

NIC BRUNSDON is a practice of designers and architects who are globally connected, experienced and purpose-led. The practice is committed to the delivery of well-conceived and thoughtful architecture. We work within a select range of built environment typologies (namely, housing, hospitality, cultural and civic) with a common approach to sustainability, community, and wellness. 

Our projects are located throughout Australia and globally, this international connection shaped our philosophy that our projects must be responsive to the local land and people, evoke emotion, and are based on a process of inclusivity.

Our primary studio is located in Perth, WA on Whadjuk Noongar Boodjar. Our satellite studios are found in Sydney, NSW on the lands of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and in Melbourne, VIC on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. We work together as one team without borders.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
