Abstract

A city is said to be accessible if its implementation accommodates users’ needs, including those with special needs, either disabled, elderly, children, etc. The environment is considered accessible if it ensures users' equality, equity, and living without a hitch. Surabaya, a city with great appreciation and recognition, known to be one of the best cities in the world, is still yet not to be entitled as an accessible city, despite all the greatness of the town, which improve the people living in it. Like most cities in Indonesia, Surabaya is built mainly normative oriented to buildings and urban infrastructures and facilities, not human-orientedapproach. Some failures in urban design implementation are common, for instance: tree roots and their placement are still interfering pedestrians on the sidewalk; most signage is still not informative enough for people with special needs in streets and public facilities; guiding blocks for blind people are far from decent to be safely and comfortably used in a daily basis; parks pay no attention to their accessibility; etc. This paper offers an idea about how to live as a blind person in Indonesia and how the experience is considered the primary part of a design process. The idea is generated to propose the design criteria for redesigninga public park. The data is gathered through participant observation by referencing from a blind’s point of view. Taman Bungkul is chosen as a field study as it is one of the best and the oldest parks in Surabaya and has been recognized and actively used by the residents. The proposed idea is formed by directly experiencing and observing what it feels like to be blind amidst public facilities designed for the non-disabled. The design criteria weigh how blinds gather information, percept spaces and distances, and use their senses such as aural, olfactory, tactile, and other senses. The result proposes design criteria for existing public facilities that are more accessible, visitable, comfortable, and inclusive for everyone, especially for the blind. The design is presented and graphically communicated.

Abstract

Tindoi Fort continues to be threatened because of not yet get the full support of the community to preserve. Tindoi Fort should be a valuable asset for the government if it is managed seriously. The purpose of this study is to revitalize cultural heritage sites by providing new vitality through a sustainable tourism approach. The study uses a combination of interpretative historical strategies, to find out the original form of the fort through observation and in-depth interviews. Then a qualitative strategy with a descriptive approach is used to determine the social character and community culture locally so that can support tourism activities. The results of this study are the formulation of the criteria and concept of revitalization including the physical restoration of the fort, the arrangement of tourism based on environmental conservation, the arrangement of the creative economy center, the arrangement of socio-cultural activity areas that support local wisdom attractions.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between architecture, digital placemaking, and time, addressing theoretical gaps and their relation. While digital placemaking has seen significant advancements, its integration with architecture and temporal dynamics remains insufficiently explored. To bridge this gap, the research conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) of 448 articles published between 2014 and 2024, with 23 selected for in-depth analysis. Using qualitative content analysis, the study identifies key intersections between these domains. Findings reveal that contemporary architecture is fundamentally transformed by digital technology as design strategy to shape how places connect across time that could connect collective memory. By uncovering critical dynamics between architecture, time, and digital placemaking, the study proposes a theoretical framework to guide future research and innovative design strategies. Emphasizing the interplay of spatial and temporal interactions in architectural design, this research enhances understanding and provides a foundation for projects that align with the evolving demands of digital placemaking, ultimately shaping human experiences in digitally augmented environments.

Abstract

Architectural design through the concept of wayfinding for mental health facilities can support the patient's healing process, by providing designs that can influence cognitive behavior. The main problem is how to solve the spatial disorientation in the building. The healing architecture theories observe and harness the environmental elements as a factor in the design of a building. This information is applied to help the occupants in the process identifying their environment. The statement provides a basis for ideas of ideas regarding the architecture that provides information on the occupant, and it presents a hypothesis about architecture as a guide the user inside the building (wayfinding). The design proposal aims is to produce proposed structures designed as facilities to deal with mental health disorders according to the needs of the patient, and knowing what architectural elements can be used in using the concept of wayfinding as a result of research.
