The project features a labyrinthine system of pools, accented by mirrored sculptures that reflect the surrounding landscape and nature. This central aquatic theme serves as the nucleus around which protected shelters for guest relaxation and privacy are distributed. The wetland area is transformed into an artificial lagoon, doubling as a theater for events and floating art installations. Located near one of Bali's most stunning beaches, Sadhana offers panoramic sea views, integrating the natural beauty of the island into the resort's experience.

Communal areas within the resort adhere to a linear design approach, enhancing the natural elements and seamlessly integrating with the environment. These spaces function as platforms for social interaction, exemplified by the large green marble table designed for the Omakase ritual, situated amidst reflective water mirrors and lush vegetation. Guest rooms are designed to bring outdoor elements indoors, fostering moments of reflection and tranquility. Water and vegetation permeate the built environment, transforming each suite into a private sanctuary.
