Is a De Reus Designed Spa in the Cards for Ubud?
This project has been on the website of architect Mark de Reus for a couple of years. But there’s no indication whether it’s going to be built or not. The master plan (below) shows a spa resort with 60 rooms, which are tree-housey. Sort of.
De Reus has been the design engine for much of the Kukio development on the Kohala coast in Hawaii. It’s a vast golf community where most of the villas have been bought by Silicon Valley and Wall Street über rich couples of a certain age.He also did work for Tommy Soeharto’s Pecatu Indah mega-development (see below).
De Reus partners with a Jakarta firm, PAI, for his projects in Indonesia, including a slew of flash pads in Jakarta. He’s also tight with Stephen Zeffert of Sequoia Contract Works, a sourcing agent and furniture maker who made his name in Jakarta with MOIE Home Furnishings. Zeffert’s done well peddling behemoth-teak furniture out of workshops here in Bali, too.
