Text description provided by the architects. Katamama, the first hotel by PTT Family, the group
behind the world-renowned Potato Head Beach Club, gives its parent company a different and
bigger canvas to display its creativity and vision. A rare project involving handcrafted custom
work on a large scale, Katamama is a truly bespoke creation.

Contemporary design elements pay reference to the Balinese lifestyle and lush green gardens that
reflect the natural beauty of the island. The exterior of Katamama takes its cues from the
Balinese building practice of tri angga, a concept where the spatial structure reflects harmony
between the building and its occupants.

Katamama features an elevated lobby allowing guests to view the pool and surrounding
landscape. Rooms that occupy the lower floor are described as “introverted” by Matin, with a
secluded view to the garden. His vision for the building was to allow guests to see a different
angle of the landscape from every level of the hotel.

“The idea behind Katamama was to represent Bali. It should feel Balinese, but modern at the
same time. The main concept is actually the 'modern' architecture of 60s and 70s. It’s very
geometrical. And these days, when almost every hotel in Bali is planned with the curved lines,
it’s quite unusual,” says Matin.

As one of Indonesia's leading entrepreneurs, Akili is known for his passion for the mid-century
look and Katamama’s interiors, fixtures and furnishings reflects this craft-focused take on
hospitality. The raw brick of the walls are highlighted in the suites and wide boards of teak are
used for the flooring. Other wall finishes include solid-timber slats and a rough pale coloured
plaster. The main spaces of the suites are designed to be as open as possible with the bathroom
separated by a set of decorative sliding panels that can open to make the bathroom part of the
main space. Each bedroom looks out onto a balcony terrace with a day-bed, table and chairs and
becomes an extension of the room, with the same hand-made brick material extending out from
the room wall.
