Villarci
Situated in the west region of Java, on the peak of Bogor, lies a classic and spacious villa known as Villarci. GeTs Architects take notes on how to carefully incorporate distinctive natural values while embracing the breathtaking and awe-inspiring 360-degree perspective: from Salak Mountain, a scenic view of Bogor city, and the vast terrain of the site itself. The site is complemented by a lightweight white rectangular mass with thick arches of long exterior arcades that seem to sit well within the surroundings. It rises softly above the contour, establishing itself as a significant point of reference.
GeTs Architects briefly examines the client’s favorite architectural movement of the late 18th and early 19th centuries by highlighting its notable features. The design furthermore presents a contemporary version of the client’s enchantments towards the conventional characteristic of that architectural movement. The architectural arrangement exhibits a false conformity to basic forms. In addition to visually representing a contemporary update, a lightweight white rectangular mass with thick arches of long exterior arcades promotes air circulation, solar shielding of interior openings, outdoor shades for heavy rain, and on top of that providing space for relaxation and social interaction. It turns into a powerful visual focal point for the surrounding natural landscape. Along with sweeping through and directly responding to site conditions, it also blurs the line between front and back facades. However, the contrast of solid black stonework is a subtle nod to Bogor’s Dutch Colonial architecture, emphasizing the substance of the stonework and acting as a transition to the natural backdrop of the villa.
With its solid rectangular characteristic and dominant silhouette, the soft shapes within the arches do not shy away from their existence. Additionally, it echoes on a more comfortable scale throughout the internal spaces, particularly in the arched carved wooden doors. The oversized faux wooden beams complement the rest of the Spanish Mission Revival-inspired architecture with its worn, aged, yet warm feel. With restrained materials used across the exterior architecture, the material in interior spaces complemented it: the terracotta and Talavera-patterned tiles provide a splash of color and personality to a rather broad and unadorned white plaster surface. With the usage of veneered timber products and the colored tiles here and there, the whole atmosphere is introduced towards softness, warmth, and comfort. The large paned windows are ideal for counteracting the overall atmosphere and help to imbue a humanizing element to the solid black-and-white architectural structure.
Villarci's overall architecture had to find a careful balance between sanctuary and embracing the stunning vista that the entire sides of the villa are vastly exposed to; all while reflecting the imagined lifestyle of the villa with the refined furnishing.
In essence, the building exists as a stacked arches shell, balanced carefully upon stonework that binds into the sloping topography below. All of the objects are arranged like telescopes, linking the contour to other masses and giving the entire area distinct vantage points in between.
Employing locals strengthened the bond between the work and the Ciapus landscape by integrating diverse construction knowledge. A new positive language was created through the participative process, giving the local community a sense of accomplishment, pride, and identity.
