Abstract

Rapid urbanization in humid tropical climates has led to an increase in the construction of contemporary tall buildings due to population growth and land shortages, leading to an increasing number of tall building constructions in urban areas. However, these buildings face several challenges, such as climate, environmental impact, and excessive energy consumption. Integrating Yeang’s principles into tall buildings can overcome these challenges. This research explores the application of Yeang's principles to contemporary tall buildings in humid tropical climates, specifically considering sun path and wind rose projections. There are eight iconic contemporary tall buildings that were selected in humid tropical climates based on their public significance as case studies to analyze their building design and compare their implementation with Yeang's principles. Despite some buildings adhering to Yeang’s principles, there are several factors that influence the building’s design, leading to certain modifications. These adjustments impact the building’s form and structures. By looking at how design implementation compares to Yeang's principles, this study shows the challenges and opportunities of creating sustainable and adaptable tall buildings in humid tropical environments.

Abstract

This research aims to conduct a spatial mapping analysis for Kamal Muara Fisherman Kampung to understand the development dynamic of its housing fabric. It focuses on identifying and exploring the potential for spatial hybridity, a key factor in the transformation of the kampung’s physical layout. The study identifies a critical issue in the current spatial aggregation, which lacks optimal development and coherence, thereby emphasizing its character for strategic planning and design intervention. A qualitative interpretive methodology is employed, utilizing a typo-morphological approach. The primary research instrument involves digital mapping techniques. The mapping process consists of three main stages: (1) map extraction, (2) morphological analysis, and (3) typological synthesis. The expected outcome of this research is the formulation of a spatial algorithm for model development, with a particular emphasis on generating a prototype for residential units that could serve as the structural core of the kampung’s spatial network.

Abstract

This study explores the transformation of function, form, and materials in the adaptation of the traditional Tongkonan house into the Toraja Church in Surabaya. The Tongkonan, a culturally significant dwelling for the Toraja's people, undergoes various changes when adapted to an urban context. Using a qualitative descriptive method and comparative analysis, this research examines differences between original Tongkonan houses and their architectural reinterpretation in the Surabaya church. The findings reveal that the function has shifted from residential to religious use, materials have changed from wood, bamboo, and thatch to concrete, steel, and glass, while the iconic curved roof form has been largely retained. These changes reflect a balance between preserving cultural identity and meeting modern building requirements. The study highlights how vernacular architecture can evolve through adaptation, offering a sustainable approach that respects tradition while responding to contemporary needs in urban environments.

Abstract

This paper reimagines architectural landmarks within the hills of Labuan Bajo, proposing an approach where architecture seamlessly integrates with the landscape rather than asserting dominance. The study examines how design strategies can amplify rather than overshadow the natural environment, positioning nature as the true landmark through ephemeral architecture. Using Plowright’s force-based framework within an architectural competition, the research employs a research-by-design methodology to iteratively refine solutions that dissolve built interventions into the terrain. By integrating Labuan Bajo’s topographical and visual characteristics, the design leverages adaptive modularity and sustainable strategies to ensure perceptual fluidity within the site’s ecological and cultural context. This approach contributes to landmark design by demonstrating how architecture can function as a dynamic extension of the landscape, fostering harmony rather than visual competition.

Abstract

Colonial buildings in cities like Malang face pressure to modernize without losing historical identity. This study applies a descriptive qualitative method involving field observations, literature review, and interviews, analyzed using conservation architecture principles. The research highlights the importance of preserving colonial heritage by adapting it to modern functions while maintaining architectural integrity. The transformation involved converting residential spaces into hotel facilities and adding new infill structures to support the new function. Findings reveal that interventions respecting minimal intervention, reversibility, and adaptive reuse enable both preservation of heritage and modern functionality This research aims to promote sustainable preservation practices and demonstrates how adaptive reuse can help colonial buildings remain functional and relevant in today’s urban context.

Abstract

Accessibility for wheelchair users is a crucial aspect of inclusive hospitality facility design, especially in countries with an aging population such as Singapore. With 13.3% of the population aged over 50 in 2024 and a projected 28.6% by 2030, the need for accessible spaces is becoming increasingly urgent. This study employed a content analysis method with a descriptive approach, in which the architectural floor plan of the Pan Pacific Orchard Hotel was redrawn and overlaid against the accessibility standards set by the Building and Construction Authority. The evaluation focused on five key elements: safety, visual focal points, corridors, cores, and user well-being. The findings indicate that the hotel not only meets technical accessibility requirements but also successfully integrates aesthetic elements with safety functions. Reflectively, this study highlights how the application of universal design can contribute to the creation of inclusive, meaningful, and adaptive spatial experiences for users with limited mobility. As such, the hotel serves as a model of design that promotes sustainability and competitiveness in the global hospitality sector.

Abstract

Abstrak Dalam perencanaan ruang publik di kawasan cagar budaya, arsitek dan perencana umumnya lebih fokus pada aktivitas formal dan mengabaikan aktivitas informal. Aktivitas informal di ruang publik muncul tanpa perencanaan namun sejatinya dipicu oleh aktivitas formal yang dirancang. Fenomena ini membentuk suatu ritme ruang urban yang kontradiktif sehingga menghasilkan makna ruang publik yang ambigu. Penelitian ini mengkaji fenomena kontradiksi ruang sosial publik yang timbul akibat informalitas sebagai dampak revitalisasi kawasan cagar budaya dengan mengambil Kawasan Siola di Surabaya sebagai studi kasus. Studi dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berdasarkan teori rhythmanalysis dari Lefebvre dengan metode wawancara dan observasi lapangan. Pembacaan ruang dilakukan dengan mengkaji lima variabel: elemen fisik dan non-fisik, jenis kegiatan, pola penggunaan ruang, objek pengisi ruang, serta dimensi waktu. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa aktivitas informal memiliki peran penting dalam pembentukan ruang kota. Informalitas menjadi elemen kunci dalam menanggapi dinamika ruang kontradiktif dan menjadi tantangan dalam pendekatan desain urban di kawasan perkotaan, khususnya kawasan cagar budaya.   Abstract In the process of planning of public spaces within heritage areas, architects and planners tend to focus on formal activities while neglecting informal ones. Informal activities in public spaces usually emerge without prior planning; however, it may be triggered by the designed formal activities. This phenomenon generates a contradictory urban spatial rhythm, resulting in an ambiguous meaning of public space. This study examines the phenomenon of social space contradiction arising from informality as an impact of heritage area revitalisation, taking the Siola area in Surabaya as a case study. The research employs a qualitative approach based on Lefebvre’s theory of rhythmanalysis, using interviews and field observations. Spatial interpretation is conducted through five variables: physical and non-physical elements, types of activities, spatial use patterns, spatial objects, and temporal dimensions. The findings reveal that informal activities play a significant role in shaping urban space. Informality becomes a key element in responding to the dynamics of contradictory space and presents a challenge for urban design approaches, particularly in heritage areas.

Abstract

This study examines the sustainability of the Mbaru Niang house in Wae Rebo Village, Indonesia, through a qualitative descriptive method. The analysis focuses on the spatial layout as well as supporting elements such as materials, climate responsiveness, and communal functions, using visual interpretation and thematic mapping based on environmental, social, and well-being dimensions. The findings reveal how the use of local materials, passive ventilation, communal spatial organization, and flexible design strategies reflect an integrated approach to sustainability. Mbaru Niang demonstrates how traditional architecture, grounded in ecological adaptation and cultural continuity, can inform contemporary sustainable design. While the study is limited by its reliance on secondary data and scope, it contributes to architectural discourse by emphasizing the value of traditional knowledge in creating resilient and context-sensitive built environments.

Abstract

Structure and construction form part of the technical backbone of any architecture degree, yet students consistently find them one of the hardest areas to engage with — particularly when they are expected to apply structural knowledge at the same time as they are still developing a design project in a parallel studio. This paper reports on a qualitative study conducted in Structure Studio III, a third-semester course at a private university in Bandung, Indonesia, that runs alongside Design Studio III. We collected open-ended questionnaire responses from 117 undergraduate students and 8 studio tutors, then analysed them using thematic analysis supported by frequency counts. Four recurring patterns emerged from the data: inadequate mastery of basic structural concepts (raised by 76.1% of students; confirmed by all tutors), persistent difficulties with technical drawing (70.1%; all tutors), the challenge of running a technical course in parallel with a design studio (63.2%; 87.5% of tutors), and a range of organisational constraints that limit how much learning can actually happen in a session (60.7%; 75% of tutors). Tutor responses also drew attention to something the existing literature has not examined: a significant step-up in demand between Structure Studio II and Structure Studio III that students are not adequately prepared for. Taken together, the findings point not to students lacking aptitude but to a series of structural misalignments in how the curriculum is sequenced and coordinated. We conclude with a proposed framework for staging competency development across the three structure courses and coordinating more deliberately with the design studio.

Abstract

This study explores the optimization of louvre facade configurations for west-facing office units in Surabaya’s tropical climate, focusing on enhancing thermal comfort and daylighting performance. Using generative design integrated with Rhinoceros, Grasshopper, Honeybee, and Ladybug, various louvre angles and spacing combinations were simulated and analyzed based on key metrics: Glare Autonomy (GA), Illuminance, and Thermal Comfort Percentage (TCP). Results show that configurations with steeper angles (45°–60°) and tighter spacing (0.4–0.5 m) significantly reduce glare and heat gain, but at the expense of daylight availability. Conversely, flatter angles (0°–30°) increase natural light but compromise comfort. A 45° angle with 0.5 m spacing offers the most repetitive configuration, being able to achieve an average illuminance of 173 lux at 10:00, an average of 95% thermal comfort percentage, an average illuminance of 251 lux at 14:00, and an average glare autonomy of 92.86%, while using a configuration of spacing between 0.25 - 0.40 m and angle of 0° - 25° is also an alternative to achieve a balanced performance. The study highlights the potential of data-driven generative design in creating adaptive, energy-efficient facades suitable for tropical urban settings.
