Abstract

This study explores the perception of space felt by humans through architectural models, to see the influence of architectural elements, especially lighting parameters, brightness, elevation and volumetric proportions, influencing human interpretation of the designed environment. This study was carried out by examining 51 model variations with a room area of 4x4x3.5 meters, the model variations were based on variable settings consisting of three main aspects: position of the ceiling, floor and openings; window opening size; as well as ceiling and floor heights. Based on the findings of this study, it is revealed that perceived brightness, spaciousness and comfort significantly influence spatial evaluation, especially the sense of space to improve the quality of the architectural space experience.   Among all variables, comfort emerged as the most influential factor, thus strengthening its role as a core indicator of the success of spatial configuration. This study emphasizes the relevance of physical models not only as a representation tool but as an instrument for measuring the sense of space in architectural works. In architectural education, students use architectural models as the representation of design. This study uses the architectural model approach to measure human perception of space through students, but this study still has limitations compared to evaluating directly on space at the actual scale.

Abstract

School buildings play a vital role in education by serving as physical spaces for learning and environments that affect comfort, safety, and the effectiveness of the learning process. At the junior secondary school (SMP) level, providing adequate facilities and infrastructure is crucial because students are in a transitional phase of cognitive and social development that requires a safe and functional learning environment. In urban areas, meeting educational infrastructure standards often faces challenges such as limited land availability, high population density, and increasing student numbers, all of which influence the layout of school buildings. This study aims to evaluate whether the building layout and facilities of junior secondary schools in Depok City conform to the infrastructure standards set by the National Education Standards. The research uses a descriptive quantitative approach involving 34 schools, considering school capacity, land area, building size, and classroom conditions. The results indicate that land capacity is closer to the standard compared to classroom capacity. However, the imbalance between the number of classrooms and students still causes classroom overcrowding. Overall, most schools fall into the moderate compliance category (58%), with only a small percentage fully meeting the standards, highlighting the need for improvements in educational infrastructure.

Abstract

Heritage revitalization commonly emphasizes physical improvements, while the socio-spatial processes shaping the vitality of public spaces remain insufficiently explained in relational terms. This study examines how the configuration of grey space generates lingering conditions during the public space activation process in Semarang’s Old City. An exploratory case-study approach was employed, using structured spatial observation and behavioural mapping, to identify morphological typologies and patterns of temporary-staying activities. The findings indicate that edge quality, spatial subdivision, scale proportion, shading, and connectivity with active functions contribute to longer-duration lingering. However, this relationship is not deterministic; the interplay between spatial configuration and temporal dynamics shapes lingering intensity. Lingering functions as a transitional phase that links morphological structure and social interaction, thereby supporting the vitality of public space in a gradual, contextual manner. This study positions grey space as an analytical framework for understanding the relational process of public space activation within heritage contexts, extending the discourse beyond purely physical and descriptive approaches toward a more process-oriented perspective.

Abstract

Public open spaces play a key role in sustainable urban development through their social, ecological, and cultural functions. However, their planning and design in many cities remain largely exclusive and have yet to fully incorporate inclusivity and sustainability principles. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the Way Halim Sports Activity Center (PKOR Way Halim) in Bandar Lampung as an inclusivity- and sustainability-based Multi-Purpose Open Space (MPOS) in supporting adaptive public spaces. The study uses a descriptive mixed-methods approach, combining a questionnaire survey of 100 purposively selected respondents with structured field observations. Data were analyzed using percentage-based descriptive statistics, categorized as low (<40%), moderate (40–60%), and high (>60%). The results show that social inclusivity, covering user diversity, spatial comfort, and activity flexibility, achieved high performance (64.8%–77%). In contrast, basic physical accessibility was low, particularly in disability-friendly facilities (38%) and adaptive lighting for visually impaired users (39.2%). Supporting facilities and user participation were rated moderate (42.8%–57%). PKOR Way Halim has strong potential to be developed as an MPOS but requires targeted design and policy interventions focused on universal accessibility. Strengthening public open space planning and management policies, including technical regulations for disability-friendly facilities, is essential to enhance its functionality and sustainability.

Abstract

Growing discussions on public space highlight the need for a more structured understanding of sustainability indicators across diverse urban contexts. This study examines these indicators across 22 selected articles using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and then tests them through an empirical example of the Prawirotaman Street corridor in Yogyakarta to observe how the theoretical concepts operate in practice. The analysis integrates SLR findings with primary data such as field observations and interviews to assess the degree of indicator fulfilment in real public-space conditions. The study offers a comprehensive indicator model and demonstrates its partial applicability in the local context, providing a novel evaluative framework for future public space assessments in Indonesia.

Abstract

Multicultural communities in rural areas face challenges in maintaining social harmony while preserving cultural identity within residential environments. Tri Rukun Village in Boalemo Regency, Gorontalo, represents a multicultural settlement inhabited by Gorontalo, Balinese, and Minahasan communities living together within the same environment. This study aims to analyze the roles of customary institutions and community leaders in shaping residential adaptation strategies in Tri Rukun Village. A qualitative method with an ethnographic approach was employed to understand social, cultural, and spatial dynamics within the community. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, while data analysis used thematic coding and the Miles and Huberman interactive analysis model. The findings indicate that customary institutions play important roles in land distribution, housing arrangements, and spatial conflict resolution through deliberative mechanisms based on local wisdom. Community leaders contribute to planning, design, and post-occupancy evaluation processes. Residential adaptation does not eliminate cultural identity but instead produces architectural hybridization through modifications in building materials, spatial organization, and housing elements adapted to social and environmental needs.

Abstract

The proliferation of urban cafes has driven a shift in spatial function, with these venues increasingly used by students as informal learning environments rather than solely for socializing. This phenomenon demands a spatial quality that supports user comfort, particularly regarding lighting design. This study aims to evaluate the performance of natural and artificial lighting in cafes functioning as informal study spaces. A quantitative approach was employed by directly measuring illuminance levels, Correlated Color Temperature (CCT), and glare perception across two cafe case studies. The results indicate that during the daytime, the average illuminance in both cafes complies with the baseline SNI 6197:2020 standard for cafe spaces; however, only one cafe meets the recommended standard for learning environments, and light distribution remains uneven, leaving certain areas below the required threshold. At night, illuminance in one cafe fell below the standard for studying, whereas the other remained compliant. Regarding CCT, daytime lighting in both cafes demonstrated a neutral warm-white ambiance, transitioning to a warm tone at night. Furthermore, daytime glare perception varied between the two cafes, whereas nighttime glare remained consistently low in both cafes. These findings provide an empirical basis for formulating recommendations to improve lighting design in cafes utilized as informal learning spaces.

Abstract

Rapid urban development has increased the public’s need for urban parks as public spaces. However, the lack of a systematic evaluation mechanism based on user behavior has often resulted in facility layouts being out of sync with spatial characteristics and visitors’ activity patterns. This causes park utilization rates to inadequately reflect spatial potential, requiring an empirical approach to understand the relationship between spatial characteristics and user behavior. This study analyzes the distribution of visitor activities and their relationship with spatial characteristics to formulate facility layout recommendations using behavior mapping at Adipura Park in Muara Enim, South Sumatra. A descriptive qualitative approach supported by quantitative data was applied through direct observation over seven days in three time periods. The park was divided into zones based on function and spatial characteristics. Results indicate variations in activity intensity and type across zones. Zones 2 and 3 show the highest utilization levels, while Zone 1 is moderate and mainly circulatory. Zones 4 and 5 tend to be passive due to limited facilities, comfort, and visibility. These findings underscore the importance of aligning facility layouts with user behavior as a basis for urban park planning. The findings provide empirical guidance for designing more responsive, efficient, and user-oriented public park spaces.

Abstract

Physical and tourism-oriented considerations often dominate revitalization projects in historic physical coastal public spaces, while the understanding of users’ spatial behavior remains insufficiently integrated into the design process. This condition risks producing public spaces that are less responsive to local communities’ needs. This study aims to map community behavior to inform the development of a revitalization concept for public spaces in the Ampenan Beach area of Mataram City. A qualitative-descriptive approach was employed through behavioral mapping methods grounded in temporal and spatial observations, supported by visual documentation and archival research. Data analysis identified patterns of activity, spatial use intensity, and the interrelations between user behavior and the site's physical setting. The findings reveal concentrations of informal activities, temporal variations in spatial utilization, and discrepancies between existing spatial design and users’ actual behaviors. These results suggest that behavioral mapping functions not only as an observational tool but also as a conceptual framework for formulating context-sensitive, inclusive, and community-oriented principles of public space revitalization within historic coastal environments. This study is limited by a relatively short observation period and the absence of GIS-based spatio-temporal analysis; therefore, more comprehensive follow-up studies are required to strengthen the findings.

Abstract

Rapid urbanization has intensified mental health challenges in cities, highlighting the growing importance of urban open spaces as perceived relaxation environments. Although relaxation qualities have been widely examined, conventional assessments frequently generalize user characteristics, overlooking the influence of baseline mental health. Consequently, environmental literature often assumes uniform restorative outcomes, neglecting how psychological distress varies across genders. This study investigates gender differences in perceived relaxation of urban open spaces, with a particular focus on psychological distress. This research conduct a cross-sectional study with a semi-structured online questionnaire involving 101 adult participants. The data of psychological distress was assessed using the World Health Organization's Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Relevant environmental elements were identified through word-frequency analysis on semi-open-ended description, and then examined using analysis of variance and correspondence analysis. The results indicate that psychological distress has a more direct association with perceived relaxation than gender. While psychological distress influences how individuals perceive the experience, gender differences shape how those experiences are enacted. This study also reveal that natural greenery and coherent spatial design act as primary relaxation elements, whereas facilities and social interaction serve as secondary elements, utilized differently across gender. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating users' internal conditions into the design process to enhance the relaxation potential of urban open spaces. Design approaches must move beyond the uniform assumptions that often characterize current practice in order to create inclusive and relaxing urban environments that support everyday mental well-being.
