An inventive bamboo villa in the heart of Bali. Designer Elora Hardy returns home to the Indonesian jungle to create a fantastical structure shaped by nature and sustainability.

Neither David Hornblow nor his daughter, Amelia, ever envisioned owning a house on Bali, much less a bamboo aerie perched precipitously above a river. The family’s jungle adventure began some three years ago, when, on vacation, they paid a visit to Green Village, a planned community of bamboo residences just outside the ancient inland town of Ubud.
