Leveling a site is cheaper upfront. After that, the math starts running the other way.
We fit the master plan to the existing terrain — buildings sit at different elevations, the slope gets terraced. Less earthwork, more retaining walls, a longer timeline upfront.
In exchange, every villa gets its own view, unobstructed by the one next door, and water drains along natural slopes instead of a storm system that would otherwise need to be built and maintained.
On the slope in Kintamani, that added up to eight villas with a view of the Batur caldera, instead of the four that would have fit on a leveled site of the same size.
