Abstract

Central Aceh Regency possesses a rich vernacular architectural heritage represented by Umah Pitu Ruang, a traditional house that reflects the cultural identity of the Gayo community. However, its application in contemporary tourism architecture remains limited. This study examines the architectural transformation of Umah Pitu Ruang in the design of the Bamboo Umah Pitu Ruang cottage in Aceh Tengah and explores the use of local bamboo as the primary building material. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed through literature review, conceptual design analysis, field observation, physical measurement of bamboo, and semi-structured interviews.
