We are delighted to share that our project, Kencana Valley Compound, has received two awards from the Architecture MasterPrize Awards.

Kencana Nest was honored with “Best of the Best” in the Architectural Design – Small Architecture category. The project features a wooden pavilion constructed from glulam, showcasing and inspiring innovative use of timber as a primary material.

In addition, Kencana Valley Compound received an Honorable Mention in the Architectural Design – Green Architecture category. Beyond the wooden pavilion, the project also emphasizes the thoughtful design of wooden villas, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable architecture.

We are truly honored to receive these two awards from the Architecture MasterPrize and remain committed to continuously improving and delivering our best work.

It was such a wonderful experience for us to be invited as guest speakers at Pelita Harapan University, where we had the opportunity to share our knowledge and insights with enthusiastic students and participants who are passionate about timber construction.

The event took place on Monday, November 3rd, 2025, together with our fellow collaborator Jeshua Sadeli from Woodlam Indonesia. We shared our ideas and design process behind two of our current studio projects Intertwined Residence and Wellness Pavilion; both exploring the potential of timber as a key design element.

Hosted by Rothoblass Indonesia, this event aimed to inspire architects, designers, and engineers in Indonesia to further explore the creative possibilities of hybrid structural systems in architectural design.

It is an honor to share that Kencana Valley Compound has been voted the Public Winner of the Archello Awards 2025 in the Architecture & Wood category. This recognition represents a collective achievement, and we extend our sincere gratitude to our dedicated team, creative designers, and all collaborators who made this project possible. Being selected as the winner inspires us to continue creating architecture that celebrates wood and honors the local craftsmanship behind it.

We’re deeply honored to be recognized as the Winner of Emerging Talent category by Design Anthology. Our studio remains grounded in context, driven by care for people, and closely connected to place.
