Abstract

This study examines the transformation of the functions and architectural form of the Bale Banjar in Kuta as a space for communal deliberation and the preservation of Balinese culture amid modernization, globalization, and the pressures of tourism. Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach within an interpretive paradigm, the research involved participant observation during pesangkepan wargi (customary deliberation meetings), in-depth interviews with 5–8 informants (including kelian banjar and senior krama), and triangulation with historical archival sources, focusing on three Bale Banjar in the Kuta area. The findings reveal hybrid adaptations of the bale pesangkepan to accommodate economic discussions (accounting for 60% of sessions), an increase in the frequency of deliberations to once every two weeks, the persistence of nonverbal interactions and the bale kulkul as a traditional calling symbol, and the addition of modern LPG-based perantenan (kitchens), which extend the duration of krama participation by 30–40% per session through the provision of fast food. The discussion affirms the resilience of the Bale Banjar through the principles of Tri Hita Karana and Nawa Sanga zoning, wherein material adaptations enhance pawongan (human relations) without eroding the spiritual awig-awig, although the growing dominance of material concerns risks shifting customary priorities. The conclusion highlights the Bale Banjar as a hybrid living entity of the Desa Pakraman, and recommends architectural conservation as well as longitudinal mixed-methods studies for national architectural design guidelines. The study contributes a narrative model of deliberative space for the preservation of urban Balinese culture.

Abstract

This study evaluates the thermal comfort performance of Baitul Makmur Mosque located in the coastal area of the Kapuas River, Pontianak. The research aims to identify the factors influencing indoor thermal discomfort and to propose passive design improvement strategies. Field measurements were conducted using thermohygrometers and anemometers at six interior and exterior observation points for 30 days during five daily prayer periods. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation was performed to analyze airflow behavior under different environmental conditions. The results indicate that indoor temperature frequently exceeds thermal comfort limits, particularly during afternoon prayer periods, while relative humidity remains consistently high throughout daily cycles. Airflow analysis shows that the existing ventilation system is unable to distribute airflow effectively, resulting in stagnant airflow zones and uneven thermal distribution. CFD simulation confirms that the mosque building configuration restricts airflow penetration despite strong external wind potential. The study recommends passive design improvements including cross ventilation optimization, enhancement of upper ventilation openings, and addition of shading elements to improve thermal performance. The findings contribute to passive thermal design knowledge for mosque buildings located in humid tropical coastal environments. Keywords: thermal comfort, mosque building, passive design, natural ventilation, CFD simulation

Abstract

This study aims to identify the patterns and levels of spatial transformation in traditional houses in Bayung Gede Village, Bali, and to understand the transformation process within the social, cultural, and spatial cosmological context of the Bali Aga community. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method, incorporating field observations, interviews, and plan reconstructions of six purposively selected house samples. The results indicate that spatial transformations can be classified into four main patterns: the addition of utility spaces, the expansion of domestic spaces, the transformation of spatial functions, and the adaptation of activity spaces. Furthermore, based on the level of intervention, the transformations are categorized into three levels: minor, moderate, and major. An analysis based on the Hulu–Teben concept reveals that spatial changes predominantly occur in the teben zone, which is profane and more flexible, while the hulu zone, which holds sacred values, remains preserved. This finding suggests that spatial transformations occur selectively and gradually without eliminating the fundamental structure and cosmological values of traditional spatial organization. Therefore, traditional houses in Bayung Gede Village demonstrate an adaptive capacity in responding to modern needs while maintaining their vernacular architectural identity.

Abstract

The Ceking Rice Terrace tourist area in Tegallalang, Gianyar is one of Bali's iconic agrotourism destinations, relying on the scenic beauty of terraced rice paddies as its primary attraction. As tourist visits increase, pressure on spatial utilization in this area intensifies, potentially threatening the preservation of the terraced paddies and the ecological-cultural balance of the local community. Desa Adat (Traditional Village) Tegallalang holds authority based on awig-awig and pararem, reinforced by Bali Provincial Regulation Number 4 of 2019 on Traditional Villages. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Traditional Village's role in controlling spatial utilization in the tourist area. A qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach was employed through field observations, in-depth interviews, and review of customary regulatory documents. The findings indicate that the Traditional Village has performed its control function through awig-awig, area arrangement pararem, and co-management with subak; however, its effectiveness remains constrained by weak coordination with local government, economic pressure from tourism businesses, and limited institutional capacity. This study recommends strengthening collaboration between Desa Adat, Desa Dinas, and local government within a spatial control system grounded in the Tri Hita Karana values.
