Abstract

Ulama have taken an important role in the people of South Kalimantan, not only in terms of social cohesion but also in the forerunner of Muslim settlements. Taking the case in Sekumpul Martapura, This study tries to identify the development pattern of the Sekumpul settlement delineation due to KH Muhammad Zaini Abdul Ghani's da'wah activities, and identification of changes in the function of the area. The settlement delineation spatial-sprawl obtained by Google Earth and Geospatial Information Agency and supported by structured interviews with key informants using a snowball sampling technique. The results showed the expression of spatial delineation development in the Sekumpul area run naturally and adapted what looks like an octopus pattern with the road network as its dominant factor. In the 1980s until recently the Sekumpul area has experienced three times changes in its function, from the center of propagation, residential, into economic functions with its religious tourism concept. There were no specific guidelines found in the da'wah material regarding the technical aspects of spatial development. One important message conveyed by KH Muhammad Zaini Abdul Ghani was to uphold the rights of guests. This concept was then very tightly held by the residents of Sekumpul, which impacted on the maximum provision of facilities and infrastructure for the pilgrims.

Abstract

The facade has become a major element in the formation of visual characters in an Old Jakarta area. But to improve the visual quality of the historic area, which is full of conserved buildings, changing the facade is one thing that is not permitted. Public space is the main alternative in improving the visual quality of the Jakarta Old Town area. This study aims to identify the physical elements that have an influence on the visual formation of the Jakarta Old Town area. Data were collected using a questionnaire for 10 respondents. By using a regression test, the relationship between variables was tested to investigate the effect between variables, and analyzed with a post positivistic approach. The results show that public space that affects the visual quality of Jakarta's Old City are four elements with linear formation; including roads, streams and pedestrian paths; and one square element (shared space)

Abstract

The study has tried to answer the question of how the dominant discourse in the city tries to create meanings and forms an interpretation by using signs and symbols. Accordingly, common semiotics of Dur Untash city has been investigated. In three steps, including preparation, organization, and final report or conclusion, a content analysis method has been done. First, deconstruction views of reading place are explained and how an interpretation discourse is formed. Then we investigated some standard semantic features of Dur Untash city and an image of some familiar ideas and signs is projected. Finally, a bipolar semantic interpretation of these signs and images is presented. The dominant discourse of the city has wanted to catch a meaning, but none of its symbols and characters has such a valid capacity and authority. Therefore, the dominant discourses could not conjure spatial features controlled by meaning-making

Abstract

Nusantara architecture, which is the result of creative ideas from the Nusantara people, tends to be created with simple materials and equipment. However, the Nusantara architecture, which comes with its ancient identity, does not mean that it has no creative value. This study explores the application of Mangunwijaya's "Use and Image" theory in seeing the form of creativity in Nusantara architecture. The data was collected through various literature reviews to conclude how the "Use and Image" theory was applied in Nusantara architecture. Two traditional architectural objects, namely the Tongkonan in Toraja and Mamasa, and the Batak Toba architecture were chosen as study objects. The study results show that the Guna aspect's application lies in the architectural details of the construction, the roof appearance, and materials function-related. Meanwhile, the application of image lies in describing the meaning associated with the building finishing. This further study strengthens the fact that Nusantara architecture is the result of the Nusantara creative ideas in adapting to geographical and climatic conditions

A sense of place is essential in attracting tourists to visit heritage sites for a long time. This article aims to assess the relationship between the Sense of Place between tourists, domestic and international, and the length of stay in the Kota Bharu Cultural Heritage Zone. A total of 445 tourists participated as respondents by filling out a questionnaire survey. At the same time, data analysis was carried out using One way ANOVA. The results showed that the Sense of Place in the Kota Bharu Cultural Heritage Area affects tourists' length of stay with eight correlated scales. Those eight scales are authenticity, historical value, distinction, harmony, maintainability, and cleanliness. This study also finds several important implications for local governments and tourism practitioners in maintaining a tourism destination's economic and social attributes. This study is expected to serve as the basis for future studies related to the design of urban areas and other heritage tourism sites

Abstract

Leadership has an expansive meaning because it is a field study that comprises several different dimensions such as psychology, management, organization, and politics. On the other hand, the study of leadership’s role on urban development issues is still relatively scarce, especially in developing countries. The literature shows that local governments under the mayor as the highest-ranking position of municipal prioritise urban development is very much a function of socio-cultural norms and leadership styles. Therefore, mayoral leadership is vital regarding local government interventions to promote urban beautification in Indonesia. It is undeniable that leadership is a significant aspect of urban governance. Taking a case study in Surabaya, evidence shows that leadership plays important roles in urban governance, especially in facilitating and advising processes. Drawing on analysis of relevant documents, literature, and interviews with key decision-makers in Surabaya, the findings indicate that the quality of mayoral leadership has played a vital role in enhancing the beautification of urban form in Surabaya as a result of the urban design process. The mechanisms underlying this role include that the mayor has a sound understanding of the urban design and has been able to intervene to insist on good urban design as policy and has the standing to approach officials and community members on the urban beautification process. The quality of mayoral leadership has played a vital role in shaping the better urban beautification of Surabaya. A Mayor who has a wide-ranging grasp of urban design has advantages for the local government.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the influence of the Malay culture and customs on the Malaysian peninsula on the architectural forms of houses and mosques. The discussion is carried out on architectural elements with the object of discussion of houses and mosques. The traditional Malay house has a house topology on stilts with high poles, a layered roof, the primary material with wooden structures, and many openings (ventilations) that illustrate adaptation to the tropical climate. The type of house is determined by its roof shape, namely Bumbung Panjang, Bumbung Limas, Bumbung Perak, and Bumbung Perak Bumbung Limas. On the other hand, a mosque is a very important building for the Malay community because it is a space for congregational prayer and a formal education/teaching center for religious education, and an administrative center for communities. The overall impression of the mosque is described as a building with a flat hypostyle roof. This typology follows a religious concept of Malaysian people regarding many aspects of design on the holiness of mosques designed to develop seven architectural elements
