Pablo Luna Studio Blends Bamboo Architecture with Nature in Bali and Beyond

Pablo Luna Studio, located in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia, specializes in architecture that harmonizes with the environment. The firm designs hospitality venues, wellness retreats, and residences that seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor spaces, inviting nature into the experience. Advocating for construction in tune with nature, they utilize sustainable materials and harness natural elements like sunlight, wind, and rainfall as design advantages. Notable projects include the Lotus Shala in Ubud, a bamboo yoga pavilion with a concave wooden canopy, promoting tranquility and balance, as 'shala' translates to 'home' in Sanskrit. Another creation, the Manta Shala, on Nusa Penida's coast, features a roof that echoes the graceful movement of a manta ray. Their portfolio also includes an eco-lodge in Uganda and various wellness spots in Bali, focusing on passive climate control to minimize energy use. More projects are showcased on Instagram.
