This ancient Balinese Umah was built in accordance with the concept of asta kosala kosali Bali, which is the method of arranging land for residences and sacred buildings in accordance with philosophical, ethical, and ritual foundations by focusing on the embodiment of selecting auspicious days to build a house and the implementation of Yadnya.

The size of the building are also determined by the anatomy of the home owner. Use the soles of your feet to calculate the distance between two buildings.

Furthermore, the building’s primary materials are highly traditional, mostly clay, which is used for walls and flooring, as well as bamboo and dry straw roofs.
