Aman has launched the STUDIO NvS-designed Amankila Residences to market. Master-planned for Bali’s Karangasem Regency, the 11 luxury homes are a modern interpretation of the language of the neighbouring resort, drawing inspiration from local village planning and the hotel’s enduring architectural design. The steep terrain affords each villa sweeping views of the Lombok Strait, with a terrace-fronting infinity pool that merges with the horizon echoing Amankila’s iconic tiered pool. Thatch-roofed pavilions step across the hillside, connected by open walkways and a natural stone plinth. STUDIO NvS was engaged by Aman to master plan the development and design the architecture and interiors of four distinct villa types. Construction will begin in 2025.

STUDIO NvS Director Fiona Nixon continues her engagement with the NUS School of Architecture in 2020, this year running a master’s studio in luxury resort design titled ‘Grace, Peace and Place’.
