The project was realized together with Greywoods.pro team. Located in the southern part of Bali on the Bukit Peninsula, in the Pecatu area, this project sits on a corner plot at the intersection of two small streets. The site is surrounded by authentic Balinese architecture featuring house temples for religious offerings, lush tropical vegetation, and a web of electrical cables stretching above the roadsa characteristic feature of the local context.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Drawing inspiration from this rich environment, the design embraces simplicity, creating a composition of clean, large-scale geometric forms. The concept revolves around the idea of contrasts, designed to enhance both the project and its surroundings.Save this picture!On one side, the clean, contemporary forms of the structure highlight the expressiveness of the surrounding architecture and landscape. Small decorative elements and verdant plants become even more pronounced against the minimalist backdrop. Conversely, these bold geometric forms stand out as a focal point, juxtaposed against the intricate details of Balinese homes, dynamic cable lines, and abundant greenery.Save this picture!Light plays a pivotal role in the design, interacting thoughtfully with the architectural forms. Every element was carefully considered to respond to sunlight and shadow: round columns beneath a massive overhang, ribbed faades with cornices, cantilevered signage, and the dappled morning shadows cast by a Frangipani tree onto the building's main faade.Save this picture!In the evening, the lighting concept transforms the experience. The "outside-in" approach allows the building to seemingly dissolve into the night, with soft, targeted illumination subtly accentuating key forms and details. This restrained external lighting sets the stage for the warm interior glow radiating from the restaurant's main hall, drawing the eye and creating a sense of intimacy.Save this picture!This architectural project is a harmonious interplay of form, texture, light, and material, seamlessly integrated with its context. It serves a dual purpose: acting as both a complementary backdrop to its surroundings and a striking landmark that defines and elevates its environment.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Kabupaten Badung, Bali 80361, IndonesiaLocation to be used only as a reference.

  • Best Battle Harem Anime
    gamerant.com
    Mixing action with a solid amount of fanservice, the battle harem genre is an intriguing subset of harem anime that offers the best of both worlds. Similar to regular harem series, these anime feature a protagonist surrounded by a bevy of beauties. Theres a slight twist, however, as these seemingly harmless girls are clad in overpowered combat abilities.

  • Shackled Beast Boss Guide - Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist
    gamerant.com
    Parrying has become almost a necessity in modern video games, adding a layer of depth and skill to combat. Yet, when you fire up Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist and play for a couple of hours, you can't help but notice its absence. To some extent, it makes sense since Lilac, the game's protagonist, is not really a fighter. She's what's known as an Attuner, capable of harnessing the power of Homunculi to fight by her side.

  • I think I found the most wholesome game in the Playdate Catalog
    www.engadget.com
    I didnt set out to play jump rope STAR!when I picked up my Playdate this weekend. I was actually looking for something else, but lazily searched only half of the correct title and found myself staring at jump rope STAR! at the top of the results instead. Curious in part because Hot Rope Jump was one of my favorite minigames in Mario Party 2 back in the day I clicked on it, and was greeted by pictures that look like something Id tape to my refrigerator if given by a 5-year-old. It was kind of a say no more moment; I purchased it immediately. As youd expect from the title, jump rope STAR! is a jump rope game for Playdate. It offers a few different modes for solo and co-op play, the latter involving two players sharing one device. I havent run into many multiplayer games for Playdate, so that alone is pretty cool. The game was made by Chris Corciega (Soinksters Games), but the art was designed by a talented 5-year old, Maya. And it is adorable. As you try to set new high scores, you use the crank to control the swing of a jump rope held by a bipedal bunny and a striped pig (?). Okay Im not entirely sure what the second character is, but those two are swinging the rope, and the goal is to do so in time with the little stick-figure girls jumps so you dont trip her up. Her timing isnt always consistent and she speeds up as you progress, so it starts to get pretty tricky after a minute or so. But, achieving perfect swings will earn you points in the Star Meter thats on the side of the screen, and once its filled, you can use that power to temporarily slow down time and get more swings in while the girl is in the air. In the other modes, things get a little more complicated. Playing with a friend in the two-player catch mode, for example, one of you will have to press buttons to move the girl around so she can catch falling stars while the other person swings the rope. (Very hard to do on your own, I discovered). Its a simple but fun little game, made even better by the fact that you can involve someone else in the silliness. Both adults and children would be able to enjoy it, and there is a kid mode for a more forgiving style of play if you dont want family game night to get too competitive. This strikes me as another one of those perfectly Playdate games the kind that just seems like a natural fit for the device, and that youd show your friends to try to get them to understand its charm.

  • 19-Foot High Bookshelves with a Deejay Booth This Streetwear Store is Breaking All The Rules
    www.yankodesign.com
    The one word you usually associate with a library is quiet, but step into this library and youre greeted with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a DJ booth with a massive sound system. Designed almost as if libraries met counterculture, this is the Nude Library a streetwear store in Barcelona, Spain.This space doesnt whisper sophistication the way a conventional library does; instead, it cranks up the volume and tells you to pay attention. Designed by El Departamento for the Nude Projects flagship store in La Roca Village, its where architecture meets attitude. The shelves frame the room like a stage, elevating the DJ boothliterally and metaphoricallyinto the spotlight. When the music starts, the sound resonates off the wood, filling the space with energy. A librarian worth their salt wouldnt survive a day in this place!Designer: El DepartamentoThe Nude Project is a brand that champions creativity and self-expression, a philosophy echoed throughout its flagship store. Known for its bold streetwear that blends urban aesthetics with artistic flair, the Nude Project caters to a young, vibrant audience. The stores prime objective isnt to purely sell clothesits to cultivate a community. By incorporating design, music, and a striking visual narrative, the Nude Library becomes more than a retail space; its a hub for inspiration and individuality.Whats genius here is the flow of the design. The shelves serve as the backbone of the room, giving it warmth and depth. The woods natural texture feels grounding, a perfect counterpoint to the industrial coolness of the sound system integrated within. That DJ booth doesnt just sit there awkwardly; it fits, almost too perfectly, as if the entire space was built around it. Theres something irresistibly cheeky about the way it all comes togethera space that takes itself seriously but doesnt lose its sense of fun.Beyond the music and the drama of the shelves, theres an intentional softness tucked away in the fitting room. Baby blue tones dominate here, with rounded forms and a sense of calm that feels like a deliberate contrast to the rest of the stores boldness. Its a thoughtful touch, giving visitors a moment to pause and reset before diving back into the high-energy main floor. Its this kind of balance that makes the design feel alive, like its breathing with you as you move through it.The unique juxtaposition of a library with a club make the store a place you cant ignore. Its the kind of store that makes you linger, not because youre shopping but because the space itself is an experience. The shelves tell one story, the music tells another, and somehow theyre all part of the same conversation. Its not just retail; its an interaction, a memory, a reason to return.Sure, libraries are supposed to be quiet. But this one throws that idea out the window, replacing it with beats, energy, and creativity. The Nude Library rewrites the rules and then plays them at full volume.The post 19-Foot High Bookshelves with a Deejay Booth This Streetwear Store is Breaking All The Rules first appeared on Yanko Design.
