Abstract

A mosque is a place of worship oriented towards the Qibla, which for the Yogyakarta area is in the northwest direction, or 294.7°. The Qibla will affect the orientation and possibly the shape of the building. The northwest direction of buildings in Yogyakarta has a relatively high solar factor value. The orientation of the building and the dominant shape of the building towards the Qibla cannot be avoided by architects because of the rule of shafts during congregational prayers. This research is expected to find the practical orientation and layout of photovoltaic installations that function as shading, which can reduce solar heat radiation. It is hoped that the distinctive orientation of the mosque will have great potential to produce maximum renewable energy by installing solar/photovoltaic panels. The orientation has excellent potential for a mosque building to produce maximum renewable energy by installing photovoltaic (PV) panels in addition to the roof. This research aims to clearly and measurably determine the potential for renewable energy in an existing mosque, namely the Ulil Albab Mosque, Yogyakarta. The method used in this research is to carry out simulations on all facade orientations using FormIt software to find the most effective potential facades for installing PV. This research shows the most significant potential for installing photovoltaics without disturbing the performance of other buildings and getting optimal energy on the side west by producing 86,76 kWh/year.

Abstract

The architecture of the mosque building is one of the most developed building typologies in Indonesia, and it has a high variation of form. This study evaluates how the mosque envelope affects its primary function as a prayer hall. Religious worship that requires solemnity is influenced by a spiritual atmosphere where lighting is important. This study takes a deeper step by identifying the lighting configuration produced by the openings in the mosque envelope and evaluating its effect on solemnity. Illumination data, building physical information of envelope and openings, and calibrated photo documentation are collected from three Yogyakarta Mosque building cases representing vernacular, Middle Eastern, and contemporary styles. These data are analyzed according to light intensity, contrast ratio, light distribution, and visual acuity to identify how it affects the formation of a spiritual atmosphere through the generation of visual performance, such as concentration and ability to focus, mood, and comfort. Bright, high-contrast, dramatic, and colored light can undermine the potential for evoking solemnity, while dim, low-contrast, uniform, and natural intensity prevents distractive visual information from flowing into the brain, resulting in a less challenging effort to focus and concentrate. A uniform light generates more visual comfort compared to high contrast as it maintains less eye-adaptation. A serene, calm, dim, humble, and soothing ambient is considered relevant to the generation of solemnity as it promotes humility and assists the prayer to feel calm and relaxed. Further research is needed to reveal the optimal model of mosque shape and opening configuration that contributes positively to the generation of solemnity.

Abstract

The architecture and space in traditional Javanese mosques are synchronized with previous religions and cultures. Islamization takes the form of synchronization, acculturation, syncretism, adaptation and adoption by Traditional Javanese Mosques of animistic beliefs, dynamism, Hindu Buddhism, and Javanese culture. This research is unique because it compares traditional Javanese mosques with Hindu Buddhist buildings in the form of temples. This research aims to examine the synchronization of animism, dynamism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Javanese towards the architecture and space of traditional Javanese mosques in three elements. The first element is spatial systems such as land use and vegetation. The second element is the physical system which includes building form and massing, roof, and gate. The last element is the stylistic system, especially for outdoor ornaments. The research method used compares Hindu Buddhist buildings and artifacts in Indonesia and traditional Javanese mosques. The conclusions are there are a synchronization of spatial elements in vegetation, synchronizations of physical elements in roofs and gates, and synchronizations of stylistic elements in the gate ornaments synchronized from Kala to floral motifs. Keywords: islamization; mosque; space; vernacular architecture

Abstract

Short-term accommodations created to meet the needs of passengers in transit are known as transit hotels. The purpose of this study is to examine the necessary interior facilities for Indonesian transit hotels, with a focus on supporting and priority facilities. Three transit hotels situated in airports, train stations, and rest places along highways were the subject of semi-structured interviews and observations as part of a qualitative descriptive method. Qualitative analysis was performed on the gathered data, which included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that depending on the location and length of the trip, different facilities are needed in transit hotels. All transit hotels must have priority facilities such as lobbies, reception areas, waiting lounges, and beds. On the other hand, supplementary facilities such as restaurants, fitness centres, prayer rooms, smoking areas, meeting spaces, locker rentals, and spas can be customized to fulfil the demands of users. In the end, this study offers helpful recommendations for the successful and efficient design of transit facilities for hotels, improving the transit experience for visitors to Indonesia.

Abstract

The coastal ecosystem provides biodiversity that is attractive for exploration and essential to support global life systems. However, these areas have become increasingly vulnerable due to climate change and human activities. Therefore, infrastructure development in coastal regions must prioritize sustainable practices to protect these ecosystems. This paper explores the potential of Restorative Environment Design (RED) in coastal zones, synthesizing fundamental principles from Attention Restoration Theory (ART), sustainable coastal infrastructure management, and multisensory human experiences in coastal environments. The study develops a design framework integrating three dimensions: (1) Identifying coastal management strategies, including habitat restoration, soft engineering, and eco-engineering; (2) Assessing multisensory properties and experiences of coastal zones; and (3) Applying the core components of restorative environments, including being away, fascination, extent, and compatibility. This study also presents a conceptual model for RED implementation in coastal zones based on the proposed design framework. The conceptual model illustrates how zoning strategies, guided by fundamental principles, can address ecological restoration while enhancing human well-being through restorative design. The results of this study ultimately provide insights for designing coastal spaces that promote mental recovery, community engagement, and long-term ecological sustainability.

Abstract

Pasar Tengah in Bandar Lampung has evolved as a vibrant trading hub, developing spontaneously and organically over time. Due to the limited availability of land and the use of roads for both social and economic activities, understanding the spatial configuration of this area is crucial for analyzing movement patterns and activity distribution. This study investigates how the spatial configuration of Pasar Tengah influences the distribution and concentration of social and economic activities within the market. Connectivity and spatial integration are key factors shaping the strategic placement of commercial spaces. By employing space syntax analysis and reviewing relevant literature on market activities, the research identifies areas with dominant activity levels based on connectivity and integration metrics. The findings highlight key locations with high activity concentrations, though other factors must also be considered when selecting sites for commercial development. Keywords: Bandar Lampung; connectivity; integration; Pasar Tengah; space syntax

Abstract

This study examines the performance of cool roofs and green roofs in a tropical climate in Indonesia. It compares a modified pitched roof designed as a cool roof with a flat roof equipped with vegetation functioning as a green roof on single storey building. A simulation method using EnergyPlus is employed to model the building and evaluate roof performance. The evaluation focuses on their efficacy in mitigating heat flux, enhancing thermal comfort, and reducing energy consumption. The results indicate that green roofs can decrease heat flux by up to 91%, lower temperature by up to 13.14°C, and reduce energy consumption by approximately 60%. Meanwhile, cool roofs can achieve up to a 95% reduction in heat flux, a temperature decrease of up to 11.58°C, and an energy savings of up to 55%. Specifically, green roofs demonstrate superior performance in reducing heat gain within the room during daytime. Conversely, cool roofs are more effective in providing thermal comfort during nighttime. For buildings predominantly occupied during the day, the application of green roofs is likely to result in greater energy savings compared to cool roofs.
