Abstract

Urbanization is increasing the need for and building sites and vertical housing. Changes in residential typology cause changes in housing preferences and meanings. This study aims to reveal the dimensions of residential meanings — the study conducted in two stages with a sequential mix-method. The first stage is qualitative research using an explorative grounded theory approach. The categories and variables identified in the first stage of the research are used in the second phase of research quantitatively using the correlational research approach. The data collected were analyzed by factor analysis to reveal the dimensions of residential meaning — the dimensions of the revealed mapping distinguished by the type of occupancy, namely site, and vertical dwelling. The vertical house tends to be perceived as having more social and physiological significance, personalization, tranquility, hiding, economy, and self-actualization than site occupancy.

Abstract

Cafés have often been used as informal learning spaces by Indonesian college students in recent years. However, as a public space, cafes are considered by several people as not suitable for learning activities that require a high level of concentration. This research aims to identify café spatial characteristics that can affect learning activities and students’ flow experience. Flow, as defined by Csikszentmihalyi (1990), refers to a state in which individuals engage in an activity with deep concentration, a sense of control, and intrinsic enjoyment, often accompanied by a loss of time awareness. The relationship between the state of flow and learning activities is also explored. The research uses a mixed-method approach. In the first stage, an exploratory qualitative study was conducted to indentify key spatial factors and patterns of student learning in cafés. In the second stage, an explanatory quantitative study was carried out, using closed-endded questions derived from the qualitative findings to test the realtionships between spatial characteristics, flow dimensions, and learning activities through factor analysis, regression, and correlation analysis.   The analysis results show enjoyment as the dimension of flow experience students tend to encounter when studying in cafes. The findings implied that café spatial characteristics must stimulate positive emotions, prevent visual and audial distractions, and promote social interactions between learners to boost flow and smooth the learning activities.
