Bali has a wonderful selection of beautiful luxury villas to choose from, each more impressive than the next. Each villa showcases the unique tastes, creativity, and imagination of the designer or owner, often via distinctive structures, eye-catching design elements, and characterful aesthetics that give each villa its own delightful personality and appeal.
From timeless and traditional to minimalist and modern, when it comes to luxury villa architecture and design, Bali presents a treasure trove of styles to suit all preferences and tastes with one of the most popular being the contemporary style architecture that is often preferred by the stylish and sophisticated homeowner.
What Is Meant By Contemporary Architectural Style?
Contemporary architecture is a blend of modern styles, which are quite diverse and feature a wide variety of influences dating from throughout the 20th century. It can also mean today’s building styles, which refer to designs that are popular in the current times with a focus on clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and superior functionality while in harmony with nature.
Some key elements in contemporary architectural style would include keeping the indoors and outdoors connected for a feeling of spaciousness with maximum natural lighting. Other key elements include using natural and sustainable components to bring nature into the home like hardwood floors, bamboo finishing, and volcanic stone walls as well as floor-to-ceiling doors and windows and skylights to let the sunshine in.
In terms of practicality, the contemporary architectural style comes with an open kitchen complete with appliances such as refrigerators, a stove with an oven, and an open plan living and dining area overlooking the outdoors or architectural elements that bring the outdoors in. The main goal is to create a feeling of openness and a sense of airiness, thereby minimizing the need for artificial lighting or air-conditioning for the benefit of sustainability.
What Is A Contemporary Villa?
A contemporary villa features a modern, sleek exterior with clean lines and minimalist elements including a flat roof. Expect a “no-frills” approach, with cubic or rectangular construction shapes and a neutral color palette with furniture that maximizes style, comfort, and functionality. A contemporary villa would also be complete with all of today’s amenities like wifi and a flat-screen TV, other modern appliances, and cleverly concealed storage spaces to avoid clutter or unsightliness.
As mentioned above, a contemporary villa would also feature a blend of natural and sustainable materials and a strong focus on allowing natural light in. A contemporary villa would also offer ample outdoor living space like an outdoor terrace, a balcony, a roof terrace, or a garden.

A great example of a contemporary architectural villa in Bali would be Blackpool Villa, in Umalas near Seminyak.

The villa comes with three bedrooms, all cozy and inviting, and light and airy thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass windows and strategically placed windows. There are sumptuous beds, fresh white walls and brown hardwood floors, a balcony, or a terrace. All three bedrooms come with a marble ensuite with a standing shower and a vanity.
