Working without a blueprint, indigo artist Sebastian Mesdag crafts a dreamy dwelling over the course of six years.
For many of us, the idea of building a home from scratch, with no blueprints, in rural Bali is so outlandish as to practically be science fiction. But for Sebastian Mesdag, who grew up traveling the world, trekking to Indonesia with his globetrotting parents as a teenager, and watching them revamp old houses in Spain, taking on such a challenge felt almost natural.
This dreamy, minimalist family home on an indigo farm in Bali isn’t his first architectural endeavor—after college, he renovated a traditional mud house in India, and then he moved to Australia, where he built a straw bale house. So, crafting a teak home in the jungles of Indonesia is really only the next logical step.
Sebastian and his family live minimally but happily here at the end of a dirt road.
