Abstract

In Indonesia, the availability and quality of housing is a significant challenge. One potential solution that needs to be explored is the incremental housing strategy, which can provide options for users as their needs and income grow. This research aims to explore and develop affordable housing design ideas that specifically target the criteria of subsidized housing in Indonesia, based on the exploration of the national regulation related to the subsidized housing, and developed from the principles of affordable housing design such as the separation of functions and mass, the exploration of structure and materials, and the use of a cohesive form. Using design-based research as the design method, the research resulted in two alternative ideas for affordable housing. The design development as well as construction cost estimates use standard commercial building materials to get an idea of the possibility of building affordable housing with standard materials. This research is a valuable step in the exploration of ideas for affordable housing in Indonesia and will provide a valuable reference for future research and development of affordable housing in Indonesia.

Abstract

Among the various types of residences, the boarding house stands out as a distinctive temporary home, acting as a surrogate environment for individuals who are far from their permanent homes. Beyond serving as a place of shelter, it supports the continuity of daily life by offering spaces for rest, study, and social interaction. This is particularly significant in architectural education, where learning involves multimodal methods: visual, aural, read/write, and kinesthetic. These learning styles are deeply embedded in studio-based practices like model-making. However, a research gap exists in understanding how architecture students’ study activities influence spatial dynamics and territoriality in shared boarding house environments. To explore this, a multi-method approach was used, including traffic lane observations, interviews, and image documentation. Findings revealed two types of territorial infringement: one caused by academic activities such as design work and model-making, and another involving contamination and minor spatial violations during detailed model production. These infringements stem from shared ownership, limited space, and the nature of architectural tasks. The study suggests two architectural design strategies to mitigate these issues: incorporating fixed features to define zones clearly and providing semi-fixed features to accommodate changes in use. These solutions aim to balance communal living with individual academic needs.

Abstract

Jawi Temple as a relic of the Singasari Kingdom is vertically composed of three levels of buildings, namely the base, body, and roof which are terraced, tall and slender, and towering, resulting in the idea to conduct a study related to the symbolic meaning in the form of the three segments. This article is a summary of the results of qualitative research on the interpretation of the symbolic meaning of the three segments of the Jawi Temple building. The results of the study obtained show that (a) the three levels of the Jawi Temple building are interpreted as the feet, body, and top of the mountain; (b) the three levels of the Jawi Temple building are interpreted as the feet, body, and head of humans; (c) Jawi Temple contains symbolic meaning as the natural levels of Bhūrloka, Bhuvarloka, and Svarloka in Hinduism and the natural levels of Kamaloka, Rupaloka, and Arupaloka in Buddhism; (d) Jawi Temple is a symbolization of Mount Meru which has a foot, body, and peak which in its top area is the location of the Kingdom of Heaven; and (e) the four similar faces of Jawi Temple are symbolic of Cosmogony in Hinduism and the embodiment of Lord Brahmā.

Abstract

Urban public spaces enhanced with waterscape features offer notable benefits for psychological well-being, particularly through multisensory and spatial engagement. Although theoretical frameworks on healing waterscapes have gained attention, empirical research examining user perceptions within real-world urban settings remains limited. This study investigates how visitors perceive four psychological variables of waterscape design (social, behavioral, cognitive, and emotional) in a prominent public space in Denpasar, Bali. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire, developed from established design sub-criteria, and distributed to visitors at Lapangan Puputan Badung. Responses were analyzed using JMP software to explore perceptual trends across the four variables. Findings indicate that emotional and behavioral aspects received the highest perception scores. Elements such as natural vegetation, organic materials, and ambient natural sounds like rustling leaves, bird songs, and flowing water were strongly associated with feelings of comfort, calmness, and restoration. On the other hand, social and cognitive aspects, including opportunities for interaction, spatial legibility, and acoustic clarity, were rated lower, suggesting areas where the current design may not fully support psychological needs. These insights highlight a perceptual imbalance in the spatial experience of the site. The study contributes practical implications for urban designers and landscape architects in enhancing the restorative qualities of waterscape environments.

Abstract

Stadium spatial planning should always include circulation access for all users. Circulation routes must be clearly differentiated for spectators, players, and stadium management. This separation of access is intended to prevent conflicts between different spatial functions. The circulation in question refers to entry and exit access within the softball stadium building. With the numerous access points and rooms in the facility, clear identification signs (signage) are essential to help users quickly understand their surroundings and navigate to their destinations. In terms of layout, the softball stadium includes several spaces and rooms designed to support all visitor activities. Generally, a good building must have better spatial pattern arrangement, this can be assessed by measuring the sight distance that affects the achievement of space for movement. As a primary requirement for a stadium where human movement in the building must be fast in circulation, access in and out is a crucial part. The method used to answer this problem uses isovist polygons, where the results of data analysis from previous studies are incorporated to determine sight distance through the point of achieving spatial syntax. If previous research produces connectivity, integrity, and clarity quantitatively through the study of space syntax in the softball stadium building. As a result, a computerized display pattern will be obtained for several sides of the softball stadium layout. Visibility, using recognition measurements using isovist polygons, measures the user reach within the softball stadium based on key points of user circulation.

Abstract

Karet street corridor is one of the historical street corridors in Surabaya that picture the blend character of Colonial and Chinese architecture. These unique characteristics started to decrease and even vanish in some buildings in the street, through the development of Surabaya. This research aims to map the existing condition of the facade and outlining possible conservation strategies by using field observation with qualitative analysis. All the sixty two buildings alongside the street corridor will be grouped into four condition levels: excellent, good, fair, and poor that were based on integrity of the facade, the suitability of materials, and the quality of surface finishes. The result showed that in areas with low activity, the damage is more commonly found than one in busy commercial zones. It also revealed that a combination of deterioration pattern and user behaviour affect the conservation strategies that could be applied in these buildings. This study recommends a zoning-based conservation in response to the deterioration of the facade, including full restoration, maintenance for good and fair condition, and preventive action for well preserved buildings. Overall, this research recommends preservation alternatives to maintain the authenticity and cultural significance of Karet street for years to come.

Abstract

In Indonesia, which is the most populous Muslim-majority country in the world, there is currently a shortage of water sources and mosques are considered as one of the public building that produce water waste the most because of the ablution (wudhu) activities. A medium-sized mosque, for instance, consumes water between 3,000 and 3,500 liters daily. Therefore, this study is aimed at incorporating green building and fiqh in the reuse of ablution wastewater. Using a qualitative-descriptive method, this study investigates the water use behavior, technology of water taps, and treatment feasibility for the study of mosque typologies. Wastewater from ablution is considered light greywater and is in a safe range of pollutants (TSS 0 mg/L, BOD 2.3 mg/L, COD 7.4 mg/L, pH 8.4) which meets the requirements of class I clean water. Multi-stage sedimentation, sand-zeolite, activated carbon, and UV filtration can minimize the demand on clean water by 40-60%. The fiqh principle of reuse, assuming that water’s fundamental properties and volume (over two qullah or ~270 L) do not change, is pertinent here. The combination of these techniques confirms that ablution water reuse satisfies the green building water-efficiency objectives while also manifesting the Islamic principles of cleanliness (taharah) and moderation (wasatiyyah).

Abstract

Thermal comfort is crucial in building design because it can affect the occupants’ health, productivity, and well-being. For older adults, thermal comfort becomes critical, as aging can decrease their physiological ability to adapt to the environment temperature changes. Using field measurement and questionnaire survey, this research assessed the thermal comfort of older adult occupants in a naturally ventilated housing in Lawang District, Malang, Indonesia. Adaptive Comfort Model (ACM) was used to analyze thermal sensation (TSV), thermal acceptability (TA), and thermal preference (TP), with utilizing a psychometric chart. The result of the study indicates that climate-responsive and naturally ventilated housing can sustain acceptable thermal condition for older adult occupants, highlighting the importance of adaptive design strategies to enhance comfort and support healthy aging in tropical highland environment.
