Bali is a beach resort paradise,

where various distinctive hotels and B & Bs provide services.

There are many kinds,

 and you can even find panoramic villas made of containers.

This romantic and fashionable resort house is a project called [villa Mola],

which is implemented by two Italian

and French designers named Giorgio and Fran ç OIS.

The two designers gained experience in short-term leasing business in the Philippines,

 and later realized the tourism potential of Bali and decided to invest in the island.

Based on the concept of recycling and saving time and money,

the container architecture is finally selected.

 Transforming shipping containers into

excellent villas in Bali is not a simple project,

and the choice from recycling to soft decoration should be carefully designed.

The container villa, with a swimming pool and private garden,

has a total of two floors, and a 2-storey building

is used on the ground floor of the building × A 20 foot shipping container

 and a 2x40ft high cube shipping container are used on the upper floor.

This design creates a total living space of 120 square meters (1300 square feet).

The space on the first floor of the residence

is mainly used as the living room and kitchen.

 It can be seen that the space spliced by multiple containers is very spacious,

and the two functional areas are separated by a hollow iron ladder in the middle.

If we do not calculate the cost of land, swimming pool and furniture,

but only the cost of building a house,

the construction cost of the container villa is US $74000,

equivalent to about 500000 yuan.

The house has an open kitchen that can

accommodate many people cooking at the same time.

Cabinets and household appliances are set against the wall,

and a large area of aisle is reserved between the dining table and cabinets.

 The kitchen wall paved with ceramic tiles can not only damp proof,

but also weaken the industrial attribute of the container

 and decorate it with a warm smell of fireworks.

The walls of all containers facing the garden and swimming pool have been removed

and replaced with fully transparent panoramic glass windows,

which not only brings warm natural light,

but also connects the indoor and outdoor scenery,

so that residents can feel the beauty of outdoor natural scenery indoors.

The bedroom of the residence is set in the container on the second floor,

and there are two bedrooms with independent bathrooms.

The space of the two bedrooms is very spacious.

All furniture is available and made of logs.

The floor is also paved with cork to create a comfortable resting environment.

The end of the bed is facing the panoramic glass window.

Lying on the bed, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery outdoors.

[villa Mola] the current rental price of the room

is from $200 per night, equivalent to about 1343 yuan.
