Quirky old warehouses, design stores, furniture showrooms, and creative studios are all on the itinerary of Bali’s newest tours hosted by Interior Design Retreats. Founders Henne Mercer and Anna Powers, both long-time <a href="https://destinasian.com/category/bali">Bali</a> residents and interior designers by trade, saw the need for an insider experience that taps into the heart of Bali’s design and creativity in all its forms. Their full-day itineraries focus on different neighborhoods across the island (namely Sayan and Mas in Ubud, Canggu, Kerobokan, and Sanur), giving design-lovers and interiors-shoppers a shortcut to creative inspiration. According to Mercer, “visitors often sign up to more than one tour. Some people have done them all.” On the Krazy Kerobokan tour, for example, design hot spots include Budiman Ong’s Ong Cen Kuang lighting studio; Nyaman Gallery, which has art from across the Indonesian archipelago; and a business specializing in locally sourced petrified wood and the fast-cooling volcanic lava known as obsidian. —Penny Watson
