Exterior: Bale Bengong on the patio, Pas for Land Limited
Exterior September 15th, 2009
Ayunda have an obsession to have a blank bale (Balinese gazebo) to relax in the afternoon. However, the yard is very limited, not enough to put a small gazebo.
It was not just Ayunda who has such an obsession. Having a blank bale is great, because it can be used to eat food or to just sit together with family. But, again, limited land become a stumbling block to create a bench staring at the house.
The solution, create a blank bale in places other than the page, such as in the garage the car, at no laundry near or above the terrace. As done in this house, bale blank “stepped up” to the front porch.
Whole wood
All parts of this blank bale-well-structure and floor made of merbau wood in seal with politur. Why use wood merbau? The first reason, merbau wood waterproof and resistant to termites; suitable for gazebo outside the home. The second reason, of merbau logs easily found in the form of bars intact, unlike other wood species such as camphor or bangkirai. It is important, because at this gazebo, poles using a wooden fruit intact.
To cover the roof, used reeds tied to bamboo. Rows of dried reeds arranged in piles and very tightly to form a thickness of more than 20cm. With this thickness, a leaky roof is not easy. Some craftsmen gazebo ignore this, the weeds are not too tightly drawn and thick that the rain water easily penetrated.
In Dak Beton
In addition to blank bale structure itself, other things must be noted is the structure of the terrace, especially the columns and roof terrace. Because the load is heavy (have to bear the blank bale and people), should the roof terrace with casted concrete 10-12 cm thick (the same as ordinary floor not thick). Concrete is also serves as a foundation, where the “plant” the pillars of the gazebo structure.
Ayunda dream has come true, now he can have a blank bale for relaxing. How about you, are interested in trying?

Suitable for Bengong
What exactly bangong bale? Blank bale is another name of Balinese gazebo. Originally, the bale is not used for the blank, as now, but for a place to store the results of food while, before going into the barn. When not used as a place to store food, the people gathered there to chat. Well, kagiatan this conversation which then becomes a trade-mark the blank bale.
Balinese Gazebo has several distinctive features, ie using a 4 pole main backers, with a roof of reeds (or shingles) with a crown at one end, and using a raised floor about 30 cm from the ground.
Where to Start?
Some landscape consultants and contractors providing services bale it blank, as well as PT. Tunas Jaya Sanur and PT. Amtara Nirmala and PT. Bali Design. Or can also use the services of many gazebo maker in the making of the park, such as the Road Lenteng Agung. But usually, in places where the latter, the gazebo is made ready for use, can not be ordered to size. The quality of the materials used were not as good as the quality of wood in the landscape contractor.
Exterior: Between Fences with Waterfall
Exterior September 4th, 2009
Fence on this one is unique. The idea to combine the fence with waterfalls coming because the owner wanted to have a waterfall but knock the existing land area. The solution is to create a fence that once can drain the water.
When seen first glance, this fence is no different from ordinary fence. But after observed more clearly be seen that the water “out” of the fence. The water comes from pipes buried in the fence. Water will “travel” on the wall and placed in the small pond at the bottom of the fence. To appear more alive and natural, their owners adorned the front pond with water plants and also fill the pond back with some ornamental fish.
This idea seemed easy to follow because the manufacturing process was not complicated. Construction of the fence as a fence wall construction in general, using bricks bonded with mortar and sand. Used as an outer layer of the rock Templek-gloss coating. The purpose of coating is not easy to mossy fence and look more beautiful.
Three functions can be obtained at the same time owner. Having a fence, fish pond, and waterfalls in one place. Creative, huh?
