Abstract

Traditional Indonesian architecture holds climate-responsive strategies that are relevant to sustainable design, but these principles have not been systematically translated into contemporary architecture. This study aims to identify and analyze the principles of climate responsiveness in traditional Lampung houses and their potential for today's sustainable design. The study uses qualitative case studies with field observations, architectural documentation, simple thermal condition measurements, and semi-structured interviews with 15 informants consisting of residents, traditional leaders, and architectural practitioners. The data were analyzed thematically and comparatively. The results identified an interconnected climate-responsive configuration in traditional Lampung houses, characterized by site- and wind-responsive orientation, elevated floors approximately 1.2–2.0 m above ground, opposing openings that facilitate cross ventilation, large roof volumes, shading elements, local timber materials, and adaptive spatial organization. Spot measurements showed lower indoor temperatures than simultaneous outdoor temperatures during the observed periods; however, these measurements are interpreted as indicators of passive thermal response rather than direct evidence of thermal comfort. The study contributes a Lampung-specific climate-responsive design framework that translates vernacular principles into measurable criteria for contemporary sustainable architecture.

Abstract

Climate change and the digitalization of cities demand public spaces that are adaptive, inclusive, and user-oriented. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the application of human-centered design and thermal comfort, accessibility, safety perception, duration of use, and microclimate performance as an indication of climate resilience. The mixed methods method was used through behavioral observation, temperature and humidity measurements, questionnaires to 120 users, and interviews with eight stakeholders. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation, and thematic analysis. The results show that vegetation, shade, adaptive furniture, universal access, and information technology are positively related to the quality of user experience. The research concludes that the integration of environmental performance, inclusive design, and user-oriented technologies supports the development of smart, climate-resilient public spaces
