We do not design for effect. We design for the people who will inhabit the spaces we make — for the light that enters each morning, for the textures felt at arm's reach, for the silence of a well-proportioned room.
Ankatana is an architectural practice based in Ubud, Bali. Our work spans architecture, engineering, interior design, furniture and the careful restoration of what already exists. Each project begins with listening — to the land, to the climate, to those who will live there.
Ubud, Bali — since 2012
Technical precision embedded within the design process — structural systems, MEP coordination and construction oversight all in service of spatial quality.
Start a journeyEngineering at Ankatana is not a separate discipline — it is part of the design conversation from the first sketch. We coordinate structural and MEP systems with the spatial logic of every project.
This integrated approach prevents costly late-stage revisions and ensures the technical infrastructure never compromises the quality of the spaces people experience.
Foundations, slabs, columns and frame systems designed and coordinated with architecture.
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems integrated seamlessly into the spatial design.
Detailed engineering drawings and specifications ready for contractor tendering.
Technical oversight during construction to ensure all systems are executed correctly.
"Every project begins with a conversation."
