Core Subject :
ARSNET is a scholarly journal dedicated to capturing creative exploration in design process. Abbreviated from architectural design network journal, ARSNET serves as a platform for various design disciplines; from architecture, interior, and other spatial design discourses. The journal focuses on contemporary design approaches and practices in Indonesia informed by its social, cultural, and environmental contexts, in parallel to the development of design discourses globally. 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 is also interested in understanding how these creative processes apply in current times of technological advancements. 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 expand design methods, creative processes that question or speculate ideas that trigger design possibilities, or creative processes within the pedagogical settings. Submissions in the form of project 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

This paper proposes a transformative spatial design strategy within the context of Small Office/Home Office (SOHO), a dwelling type that merges live and work functions. Responding to the challenges of limited urban land and evolving work-life patterns, the proposed design introduces spatial configurations that adapt to multiple domestic and professional needs. Using a qualitative research-through-design methodology, the study explores how architectural elements can support hybrid inhabitation. The design framework focuses on three interrelated concepts: adaptability as a form of spatial and modular negotiation; temporality as the integration of time into spatial logic; and flexibility, enabled through sliding walls and transformable furniture. These frameworks are then tested through scenario-based design iterations that visualise spatial transitions across time. Findings suggest that SOHO typologies can be reimagined to support the integration of living and working, offering responsive environments that accommodate shifting the rhythms of use. By embedding modularity and temporal logic into spatial organisation, the project contributes to the discourse on architectural versatility and proposes a framework for future-oriented urban living.

Abstract

Lingering space appears incompatible with the cinematic. It neither advances nor transforms, resisting narrative progression and formal resolution. This paper, however, argues that the space that lingers constitutes a distinct cinematic condition within architecture. Challenging the assumption that animation depends on movement, the study examines how suspended, non-assembled spatial configurations sustain structural adjacency without consolidating into enclosure. The analysis is based on a practice-led photographic study of a furniture workshop, where wooden components, unfinished frames, tools, and material residues remain in partial states of assembly. Through a series of still images organised as analytical grids, the paper examines how repetition, obstruction, shadow, dust, and accumulation produce a condition of delayed movement, in which space holds itself in temporal persistence rather than progression. The still image does not generate animation through motion; instead, it intensifies the lingering already embedded within the spatial arrangement, operating as a photographic trace rather than a narrative sequence. In the absence of movement and transformation, animation emerges through the accumulation of matter and deferred spatial process. By reframing stillness as animation, the paper proposes lingering space as a mode of cinematic architecture in which movement is not enacted but held in delay.

Abstract

This study examines the generation of theoretical and practical knowledge in the evolution of design frameworks. Current discourse views design practice as an intuitive process rather than a knowledge-driven one. This study argues that theory as design knowledge informs practice, and knowledge generated from a reflective design practice informs possibilities of theoretical propositions. This article focuses on examining the flows of knowledge that underlines the evolution of pattern-based, force-based, and concept-based design frameworks within the architectural discourses from the year 1400 to 2020. Rather than focusing on the duality of theory and practice in architectural knowledge, the study emphasises the different generations and appropriations of knowledge emerging from the dialectical relations between theory and practice. Alteration of subsequent practice informed by such knowledge reflects a dynamic evolution of the design frameworks. By mapping the evolution of design frameworks in architectural discourses over time, the study contributes to establishing how design frameworks are grounded in theoretical and practical thinking to adaptively produce knowledgeable designs.
Translating the architectural language of localities Paramita, Kristanti Dewi

Abstract

Architecture operates and conveys meaning through language, using such means to build spatial experience as well as invite new propositions and reconfiguration of spatialities. The collection of articles in this ARSNET issue explores the various contexts and applications of language in defining architectural localities. Exploring settings such as urban spaces and urban facilities, workplace environment, and even entirely new terrain, the architectural language of localities manifests through cultural and material practices, aesthetic embodiments, and speculative inquiries. Through this issue's investigation of language as creative methods of designing and experiencing space, the idea of localities becomes more dynamic, continuously speculated and reinterpreted across contexts and temporalities.

Abstract

This paper explores indirect curing as a spatial strategy for designing a restorative environment within the context of salutogenic architecture. Current healthcare practices support recovery mainly through direct medicinal approaches to cure ailments, with more focus on being sterile and creating isolation. The study argues that the process of indirect curing can also be implemented through architectural interventions by focusing on the integration of nature as restorative objects and healthcare settings that can aid the recovery process. This study qualitatively explores the capturing nature as an indirect curing strategy through examining four case studies of health care spaces. Based on analysis towards the use of architectural features and spatial mechanisms in these case studies, the study found direct and indirect mechanisms of capturing natural light and vegetation, creating an immersive sensory experience. The analysis demonstrates how nature becomes a multifunctional layer that acts as an atmosphere-giver and as a therapeutic medium, encouraging the recovery process. Capturing nature as a spatial strategy provides a therapeutic experience while improving the overall experience of a salutogenic healthcare environment.
Architecture in flux Paramita, Kristanti Dewi

Abstract

Architecture exists in flux, shaped by the rapid social, cultural, and environmental transformation in current society. The articles in this edition of ARSNET explore various contexts and design methodologies that emerge amidst such rapid and often disruptive changes. The study discusses different conditions produced by such changes, from the inevitability of time that leads to deterioration, environmental pressures that create separation from nature, to high rates of urbanisation that led to limitation of living space and changes to users' livelihood. Discussions elaborated in this edition outline how architecture in flux may lead to alternative design approaches. These approaches range from construction practices that celebrate impermanence; design operations that value neglected, incomplete, and hidden areas; architecture that calls for reconnection with nature; to exploration of adaptive and inclusive objects and spatialities for multiplicities of users. In doing so, this edition highlights the changing processes and relationships of the built environment in the state of flux, towards architecture that continuously evolves and celebrates change.
