Umah Kuno Bali is the traditional Balinese house built based on Asta Kosala Kosali, the sacred architectural system of Bali. Each building within the compound—such as the family shrine (sanggah), kitchen (paon), ceremonial pavilion (bale gede), and sleeping quarters (bale meten)—is carefully placed according to spiritual and cosmic principles. The layout reflects harmony between humans, nature, and the divine, following the Balinese philosophy of Tri Hita Karana.
