Walls |
In Bali, any owner who intends to build a house first builds
walls around his land... and sets a special ceremony for this event
(we're in Bali, the island of Gods).
In
fact, there is no obligation to build very high walls. And no obligation to
build a wall on the valley side, that we wanted to keep
open.
|
|
So, at the end of 2012, we've built the basement of 3
masonry party walls (stones and cement, steel) on North, East and South
sides, as they appear in red on the plan below.
|
|
|
|
|
In fact, we simply built the low
part (basement) of these walls : 50 cm deep and about 50 cm
above the ground, they are 20 cm wide, with steel every 3 m for
future pillars.

North side (path side) |
North side, the wall is partial to allow the entrance of
building material trucks : on the plan, it's the 20m section. The 15,5m section
remains open.

North side wall, seen from the entrance, and from the land.
|
|
South side (neighbour 'Y' side) |
South side party wall has been rebuilt on the exact
location of a previous dry-stone wall. In the SE corner where stands a small
temple (mauve color on the plan), a rock makes any wall useless. This walls
starts at about 10 m from the corner.

South wall when facing East, and arriving at the edge of the land, valley side.
|
|
|
|
East side (neighbour 'X' and school side) |
|
|
|
East side party wall is a double one : 2 walls distant of 1 m from each other to manage a passage.
