Abstract

The rapid development of Balikpapan built environment is influenced by the development of the relocation of Indonesia’s capital city to the East Kalimantan Province. One impact that should be anticipated is the increase in immigrant and land conversion due to infrastructure expansion and the effect on the natural urban ecosystem. The disruption of the natural environment can indirectly affect welfare, such as the lack of accessibility of residents to appropriate resources. The quality of the housing environment has a fundamental significance on the quality of life; however, a measurable design approach is still unseen in the Grand City housing in Balikpapan. This research aims to formulate an improvement design strategy for a green neighborhood following the greenship criteria. Using SWOT analysis, internal and external factors were compiled in the qualitative matrix to generate design strategies. The result shows that internal and external source factors support the improvement by depicting the developed area's strengths and weaknesses. The essential enhancements for the area are the movement and connectivity and the building and energy criteria. At the same time, the other improvements are related to the provision and the development of the existing elements could improve the green innovation of the area to be more environmental-friendly.

Abstract

Urbanization, characterized by dense populations and demanding lifestyles, necessitates a commensurate emphasis on urban planning that prioritizes livability. Green spaces, particularly urban parks, are fundamental to this endeavor, serving as vital counterpoints to the built environment and fostering social interaction while promoting well-being. This study investigates Ulin Urban Park in Kutai Kartanegara Regency, East Kalimantan, a region grappling with mental health challenges, including instances of suicide linked to depression, some occurring within the park itself. Recognizing the crucial role of accessible and well-designed green spaces in mitigating such issues, this research employs an evaluative mapping approach to analyze the park's landscape elements. By assessing the availability and quality of these elements against established standards and suitability indicators, the study aims to identify areas for improvement in Ulin Urban Park's design and infrastructure. Field observation through photo taking was done to collect the existing condition of the park’s landscape elements in supporting users’ activities. The findings highlight specific areas where the park's soft and hard character elements, furniture, circulation, utilities, microclimate, and management of noise and odor require improvement and attention. The diversity of vegetation that enhances biodiversity could improve the attractiveness, while the quality of seating areas and other structures will improve comfort and aesthetic appeal. Such improvement in the pathways for both segments will also support the flow and accessibility.
