Retreat centers market themselves on words like \u201cgrounding\u201d and \u201cpresence,\u201d then wall you into a climate-controlled box with a playlist of ocean sounds piped through a speaker. The irony rarely gets mentioned: a space built to reconnect you with nature usually spends a lot of energy keeping nature firmly on the other side of the glass.<\/p>\n<p>Pablo Luna Studio, a design firm based in Bali, seems to have gotten tired of that contradiction. Its newest project, the Lotus Yoga Shala in Ubud, doesn\u2019t use air conditioning, doesn\u2019t rely on walls in any conventional sense, and doesn\u2019t try to insulate people from the climate they came halfway around the world to feel. Instead, the building works with the heat, the humidity, and the surrounding jungle rather than against them, which is a much harder design problem than it sounds.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pablolunastudio.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pablo Luna Studio<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-649021\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-649021\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-02.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"a86ab68d19ea348b54a73417-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"a86ab68d19ea348b54a73417-text\/javascript\"><\/p>\n<p><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The shala takes its shape from an actual lotus flower, and not in a loose, \u201cinspired by\u201d way that architects sometimes use to justify a pretty rendering.

Each petal grows out of a structural system of petung bamboo, with primary arches made by bundling three lengths together and split bamboo woven across them into a gridshell. At the edges, the load gathers into small clusters of three to five poles, which keeps the perimeter open and airy instead of propped up by a dense ring of columns. It\u2019s a genuinely clever piece of structural logic, using a material that bends and flexes to do what steel and concrete would need far more mass to accomplish.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-649023\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-649023\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"a86ab68d19ea348b54a73417-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ads-2 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"a86ab68d19ea348b54a73417-text\/javascript\"><\/p>\n<p><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>What I appreciate most is the restraint around the ground itself.

Daylight and air move through freely, views stretch out toward the river and the vegetation beyond, and the practice space essentially becomes an extension of the landscape it sits in. For a yoga studio specifically, that openness does more for the experience than any amount of curated interior design could. You\u2019re not looking at a mural of nature.

Actual climate-responsive design asks harder questions about airflow, shade, and material, and it usually produces something that looks less like a spa and more like it grew out of the ground on purpose. Bamboo helps that case considerably. It grows fast, sequesters carbon while it\u2019s alive, and requires none of the energy-intensive processing that concrete or steel demands, which matters more every year as the building industry gets pressed to account for its footprint.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-649027\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-649027\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-04.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-649028\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1600\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-010.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-649028\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1600\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/20\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"The Bali Yoga Studio Quietly Refusing to Use Air Conditioning\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/the-bali-yoga-studio-quietly-refusing-to-use-air-conditioning\/lotus-yoga-010.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>None of this makes the Lotus Yoga Shala a universal template.
