Building

We reduce the use of fossil fuels in the building process of our villas and prioritize reducing pollution in the air, land, and water. Through efficiency measures in all aspects of our development, we are able to allocate more resources towards sustainable energy solutions. Our villas do not include air conditioning, electrical stoves, electrical hot water generation, incandescent bulbs, or fossil fuel backup generators.Instead, we utilize passive design techniques for natural ventilation, gas stoves, heat pumps, LED bulbs, timer-connected pumps, and gravity tanks for water. We conduct research and implement lifecycle cost analysis to guide our long-term decision making regarding energy consumption. Our future plans involve the use of solar panels, customization of electricity meters, and the reduction of light pollution.

At Mandala Eco-Village, we prioritize the preservation and responsible management of Lombok's freshwater resources. To achieve this, we employ various strategies such as preserving, treating, and recycling water. Our approach includes the implementation of wastewater gardens, a centralized sewage water system, and the use of grey water for irrigation purposes. We also employ bioseptic tanks to treat black water and install metering systems to collect data and detect leaks for efficient water usage. In our swimming pools, we utilize an efficient pool size along with a double filtration system consisting of sand and diatomic filters. Additionally, we promote water conservation by incorporating dual flush toilets to minimize water consumption and prohibit the use of waterfall showers. Moreover, our drainage system is designed to ensure rainwater is absorbed back into the soil, preventing water runoffs during heavy rainfall. We have a well-planned rain management strategy that includes surface water collection methods during the rainy season. Through these measures, we demonstrate our commitment to preserving water resources and promoting sustainable water practices within our community.

At Mandala Eco-Village, we demonstrate our respect for the land by practicing responsible waste management. Our approach encompasses the efficient utilization of energy, human efforts, time, technology, and financial resources to achieve sustainability goals. Starting with simple actions like providing a central food station for construction workers to reduce individual food packaging waste, we extend our commitment to our homes by using environmentally friendly cleaning and self-care products. We prioritize the upcycling of debris and actively partner with local plastic waste depots, contributing to the local economy while minimizing environmental impact. In addition to our focus on sustainable infrastructure, we implement a comprehensive waste management plan, ensuring a responsible and circular approach for our customers. Through these endeavors, we strive to make a positive impact on the environment, fostering a sustainable and harmonious community.
