ARSNET is a publication platform dedicated to creative exploration in design disciplines, from architecture, interior, and other spatial design discourses. It takes particular interest in the behind-the-scenes processes: the inquiries, experiments, trial and errors, and speculations, be it performed individually or collaboratively as part of professional or pedagogical design practices. The journal also seeks to investigate how such design processes are informed by its social, cultural, and environmental context, particularly (but not limited to) Asian countries. The journal is also interested in understanding how these processes apply in current times of technological advancements, exploring such creative processes in computational design practices and digital environments. Discussion of these creative processes must be theoretically engaged, creating a dialogue between academic discourse and design practice. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that address design exploration, which may include but not limited to creative processes that reinvent or manipulate existing design approaches, creative processes that reflect on the mechanisms of everyday objects or phenomena, or creative processes that question or speculate ideas that trigger design possibilities. Submissions in the form of project and book reviews and academic design project reflections are also welcomed, recognising the potentials of a multidisciplinary outlook and utilisation of mixed media within the design process.

Abstract

With the rising concern for global warming, reducing electricity consumption and promoting daylight utilisation for healthier living conditions are among residential buildings' top priorities. The utilisation of natural light for indoor lighting, particularly in tropical countries like Indonesia, provides health benefits and improves psychological well-being. However, the current condition shows that artificial lighting still accounts for the majority of energy consumption in residential buildings and, arguably, the failure to maximise daylighting was largely due to a limited understanding of the design of openings. This paper aims to exemplify how virtualisation can assist designers through simulation tools to better predict and analyse daylight behaviour in indoor conditions through openings, which are oftentimes neglected by designers. Despite technical challenges, such 3D simulations of daylight visualisation can help to determine the best opening strategy. Thus, this paper compares three lighting simulation tools—Dynamic Daylighting, VELUX Daylight Visualizer, and Rhinoceros Grasshopper, showing the optimal visualisation of lighting quality for tropical context. Based on the model's accuracy as well as input quality and output analysis, the simulation tools are examined for their practicality and detailed daylight 3D visualisation output. This study demonstrates how the simulations of daylight visualisation inform not only the visual image of the window design, but also crucial parameters for designing openings. The parameters enable precise quality of simulation, elaborating the optimum design for performance required in tropical context.

Abstract

This paper is an exploration into the idea of agglutinating as a building adaptation strategy. This paper examines agglutinating as a potential operation to address the interplay and affective relations between spatial elements, creating a 'sticky' interior which merges or combines these elements. The study in this paper addresses agglutination as the process of re-reading the site in evocative and productive ways, rediscovering the underlying architectural logic which generates new ideas. The study is based on a fourth-year interior architecture design studio project at the Universitas Indonesia, which focuses on various experiments in regard to the theme of adaptative reuse. The experimentation allows for a deep understanding of the agglutination operations and the resulting sticky interior, discovering the interplay between different layers of contexts, substances, contaminants, and temporalities. Through the agglutinating process, a series of affective qualities of the sticky interior are figured as a variety of adaptive operations: as zones of contact and encounter, as a channelling of bodily and spatial experiences, and as the interplay of preserved connection between objects, functions, as well as values. The glutinous capacity of spatial composition nurtures the project's dynamic through which playful and provocative design experimentations are performed.

Abstract

This paper explores the revitalisation of urban vacant spaces driven by creative and cultural capitals. Such revitalisation reflects a creative placemaking approach and this study aims to investigate architectural strategies used to reshape empty spaces in urban environments in such an approach. The use of a creative placemaking approach provides the possibility of expanding urban renewal methodologies that can capture the dynamic needs and demands of society. The case study used in this research is The Hallway Space Bandung. This research uses qualitative methods with a creative placemaking theoretical framework. Data collection was done by semi-structured interviews and field observations; supported with secondary data collection from social media, online articles, and interview videos. The study found that the vacant space is activated as a youth culture space through engagement with local art communities. Such engagement activates the space through multi-purpose spatial arrangements for creative uses, open-plan spaces for collaborative activities, and utilisation of architectural elements as the platform of art. This paper argues that creative placemaking initiatives enable the appropriation of urban vacant space, establishing new public spaces that are innovative and adaptive to new situations and needs of society.

Abstract

This paper argues that introducing algorithmic thinking to basic design pedagogy should give prominence to the basic logic and attitudes rather than learning the computational devices and tools. This paper examines the integration of computation or algorithmic thinking into a basic design studio in architectural education at Universitas Indonesia. The integration is conducted through a colour composing exercise that comprises four major stages: identifying patterns, rulemaking, colouring-composing, and reflection. The findings from this study demonstrate how the students are utilising algorithmic thinking as the primary reason to design their colour composition in different ways and complexity. Furthermore, the students can also point out some underlying concepts and creative strategies of design computing concerning colour composing. The findings of this study indicate the importance to promote students' understanding of computation that is not merely tools but more into design reasonings and skills.

Abstract

This study aims to reflect and expand the notion of modularity in architectural design methods. The discussion about modular architecture is certainly familiar across architectural discourse; where its universality has been repeatedly challenged by the post-modern movement. The study aims to unpack and rethink the method and significance of modularity, not only as a means of repetition but as a contextual design response. The study generate reflection towards two lodge architecture design projects. The architecture of lodge provides complexities with regard to various programmatic needs, temporal occupation, quick construction processes, and often deep connection to the surrounding environment. This study examines four reflective concepts which expand the idea and method of modularity in architecture. First, the roof modules in lodge architecture promotes efficient spatial programs. Secondly, the use of modularity allows parallel operation of the building and the construction process. Thirdly, modularity enables construction of architecture as parts constructing the whole, creating connection between spatial scales. Fourth, modularity constructs the inside and outside experience, providing  connection with environmental context. This study offers a new perspective on repositioning and expanding modularity, not only as a means of repetition but also as a form of contextual design thinking.

Abstract

Architecture is driven by a set of rules which governs design actions and practices; which vary depending on the expected design objectives and intentions. The collection of articles in this ARSNET issue provides different perspectives that revisit the manifestation of rules in the design process. This edition highlights how rules do not only apply to form-making in the quest for beauty, nor it is limited to the social and cultural constraints that create a rather fixed and limited design manoeuvre. Through this issue's investigation of rules in design pedagogy and practice across contexts, some new objectives of rules in design are offered, demonstrating a more fluid and open manifestation of rules in the creative design process.
