As an archipelago of many cultures, you’ll find no shortage of breathtaking wonders in Indonesia. And as time progresses and technology advances, it is essential for our rich cultural identity to remain at the forefront. Figures like Yori Antar, the champion architect of Nusantara, are key in creating memorable structures that still respect the nature of Indonesia.

As an award-winning architect that graduated from the University of Indonesia, Yori Antar is famously known for his work in preserving the village of Wae Rebo, Flores in 2008, restoring the traditional Mbaru Niang houses. This particular experience awakened his passion and appreciation for traditional architectures, inspiring him to take traditional culture and bring them forward through timeless structures.

Since then, Yori Antar has been involved with a variety of traditional village restoration projects, from Labuan Bajo to Danau Toba. With an extensive knowledge of the rich cultural architecture, Yori Antar recently collaborated with other maestros of architecture, Sibarani Sofian and Dhaval Barbhaya to design a reimagined housing development in West Serpong, Maestria Residences by Farpoint.

Maestria Residence is designed as a modern haven, a solution for young millennials and excited Gen-Zs who are looking for their dream home. With that vision in mind, Maestria Residences is thus planned with a generous amount of green areas and public spaces for people to interact and socialise. An abundance of pedestrian areas allow residents to meet their neighbours and access all that Maestria has to offer with ease!

Yori Antar understands that we Indonesians are essentially tied to the outdoors, thus inspiring him to design a home that embodies the spirit of ‘gotong-royong’ or togetherness. He hopes that the homes in Maestria Residences will continue to foster a sense of belonging and community within the residential area.

The units themselves  at Maestria Residences are built using the rich local resources and designed to be acclimated with the tropical weather of Indonesia with its fluid design that allows cross ventilation and natural lights—a sustainable design that aims to keep these homes alive.

To Yori Antar, a home needs to live alongside the people. It’s not just mere measurements, but it’s about infusing the spirit of harmony inside this extension of yourself. A place to return to and be your true selves.

Maestria Residences is thus equipped with a variety of amenities, such as a lush, 6000sqm Central Park, a serene Central Lake, a modern wellness clubhouse, and more development to come so you can live life the way you want to the fullest in the comfort of your own home.

Aside from being affordable, we also offer exclusive promos and limited discounts to make your househunting much easier. Visit us at https://maestria.co.id/ and book your units today!
