Abstract

A house perhaps is a dream for everybody. Whatever the condition, one’s live mostly is started, enjoyed and finished in a house. However, not everybody can afford their dreaming house. Most poor people in urban areas have to live in substandard housing. Although hundreds of experts have been sent and millions $US have been spent to solve this problem, however, housing problems in the Third World is still acute. In fact, part of Indonesia people specially some of urban Balinese should live in slum settlement. For some people, slum is perceived as a problem. However, from different perspective, slum can be regarded as a solution especially for the marginal groups in urban areas. What is our opinion? What cause of slum? And what is appropriate solution to improve it?

Abstract

The shortage of housing in urban areas of Indonesia has been an obvious reality for long period of time even worse since the economic turmoil in 1997. The question is how will we deal with the problems? What approach can we grasp so that we can improve housing condition effectively?This is a preliminary study of housing transformations that may provide major contribution for housing in the future. This paper is based on literature review of a wide range of case studies all over the world.The result shows that through transformations, owner-occupiers can gain a considerably more space not just to accommodate their domestic activities but also to generate income, reach a higher social status and improve housing conditions. Through intensive and extensive research, it has been found that housing transformations can considerably heighten housing conditions. Even without any supports or aids from the government, extension activities have continuously enlarged and enhanced housing condition.So, I suggest that transformations must be a suitable alternative for housing provision, probably not just in urban areas of Indonesia but also in rural areas. In the light of the international literature, it is likely that we could benefit from a favorable attitude towards housing transformations in Indonesia. Unfortunately, we rarely find research in this area especially in Indonesian context. So, it needs further studies as a basis for making appropriate solutions of housing problems in the specific conditions.
