A Peek in Paradise: The Bali Homes That Chose Terra Water Ceramic Filters

How four of Bali's most-loved (and most-photographed) homes are choosing clean water, the sustainable way.

Joglos, villas, and restaurants — Bali Interiors has captured them all. Since launching its now-viral YouTube series A Peek in Paradise in August 2021, the Bali-based interior styling and photography studio has toured some of the island's most beautiful homes, racking up over 8.4 million views and quietly shaping the way Bali builds. Ten seasons in, the series still finds new spaces worth falling in love with — and lately, we've spotted a few familiar faces along the way: our very own Terra Water ceramic filters, doing their job in some of Bali's most photographed kitchens.

Here's a peek into a few homes that welcomed Terra Water in.

Casa Bloom — with Siobhan + Annie

Season 3, Episode 4

Equal parts Mediterranean and Moroccan, Casa Bloom was designed for true indoor-outdoor living — and became one of the most photographed villas in Bali. True to the home's philosophy of sourcing locally and sustainably, the space is fitted with a Terra Water Ceramic Series filter, keeping the design (and the drinking water) true to its roots.

Casa Nomada — with Erika + Marco

Season 4, Episode 6

One of Bali's most sought-after photography locations, Casa Nomada pairs a soft, sun-washed palette with a Terra Water Ceramic Series filter in white. Erika and Marco — who built Casa Nomada from the ground up — have been Terra customers since our earliest days, and we couldn't be prouder to still be part of their home.

Umah Majegau — with Ed

Season 7, Episode 1

Tucked deep in the village of Pererenan, Umah Majegau was built to live in harmony with its surroundings, honoring local Balinese craftsmanship at every turn. It's a philosophy Terra Water shares — every filter is handmade in Indonesia from natural clay and charcoal — which made the Ceramic Series a natural fit for the home.

Rumah Tenang — with Stinne + Herman

Season 10, Episode 4

Built as a wooden joglo designed to minimize energy use and blend into the landscape, Rumah Tenang is a masterclass in low-waste living. As Stinne put it on the show, cutting down on plastic started with their Terra Water filter — “the first thing we got when we moved here,” and still going strong four years on.

Why These Homes Choose Terra Water

Across Indonesia, most families still rely on bottled or gallon water to drink safely — Indonesia is the world's third-largest consumer of bottled water, a trend closely tied to limited access to safe water straight from the tap (Bouhlel et al., 2023).

Terra Water offers a simpler, more sustainable way. Our ceramic filters are handmade from locally sourced materials — terracotta clay, activated carbon, and silver nanoparticles — to remove contaminants and deliver safe drinking water straight from the tap. On average, Terra customers save around $250 USD a year they'd otherwise spend on bottled water or boiling fuel. It's a small filter with a big job: fewer plastic bottles, safer water, and healthier homes across Bali and beyond.

Our Terra Lite Filters remain in stock, and pre-orders are now open for the Ceramic Series and our Limited Edition Copper Series. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, and join our mailing list so you never miss a drop.
