Tips and Considerations for Selecting an Architect in Bali
When you have purchased land and fulfilled all legal requirements, you can begin constructing your Bali villa. While choosing an architect is generally the same process everywhere, there are a few things to take into account when choosing one in Bali.
- Be cautious of “international” businesses that, in reality, outsource all of the work to local businesses and charge exorbitant fees for their services. To get a better understanding of how they operate, it is advisable to meet with prospective architects in their office rather than at a coffee shop.
- Seek out companies that have dealt with foreign clients before, as there can be big differences in style preferences between local and western clients. For instance, whereas local clients might prioritize shade, western clients might prefer larger windows.
- Refrain from paying the whole amount up front. We gave a deposit to a “international firm” for one of our projects, but all we got back was an AutoCAD drawing with information from an earlier customer. In the end, we were able to locate another company that was more committed to our undertaking.
You can locate an architect in Bali who can create the layout of your ideal home and provide excellent service by using these pointers and conducting thorough research.
Services to Ask of a Bali Architectural Firm
It is crucial to take into account both the range of services provided and the price of an architectural firm in Bali. For a typical-sized villa in Bali in 2022, a good architect should charge approximately $10,000 USD, and this price should cover the whole range of services, such as:
- Electrical layout and managing the installation procedure.
- Structural consultant: This person will create structural drawings using the architect’s idea as a guide.
- Quantity surveyor: This individual will guarantee the accuracy of the Bill of Quantities and the purchase of all materials at the going rate and in the right amounts.
In Bali, a lot of architects also have preferred contractors that they have previously collaborated with. This can be a good option because it guarantees continuous communication between the contractor and the architect and guarantees that any modifications to the construction process are made for the right reasons rather than to save costs.

Is it safe to buy a villa in Bali?
Yes it is quite easy to buy property in Bali safely if you know how the process works. Many foreigners use “nominee agreement” for buying a property. This is where a local Indonesian citizen is nominated to own/buy property on behalf of the foreigner buyer. It seems easy way to overcome the ownership problem, but we don’t recommend it, because the foreigner has no protection over the property. The nominee can jut run off with the property.
