APPROACHING VERTICAL GREENERY AS PUBLIC ART: A REVIEW ON POTENTIALS IN URBAN MALAYSIA Nur Izzah Abu Bakar; Mazlina Mansor; Nor Zalina Harun
Journal of Architecture&ENVIRONMENT Vol 12, No 1 (2013)
Publisher : Department of Architecture, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS)

When landscape becomes the work of art, it is becoming more significant to the community. However, finding practical and effective ways in which public art could present an environmental cause is yet to be fully explored. Therefore, one way to approach this issue is by increasing the Vertical Greenery technology's application, especially at the wall of building in the city. Vertical Greenery (VG) varies in term of definition, but all in all, it can be interpreted as the growing of plants in, up, or against the facade of a building. On the other hand, public art can be referred as an artwork that is located in public space, which welcomes public interactions. Thus, in order to further study the potential of VG implementation as public art, this paper reviews 25 selected real life projects in urban Malaysia as reference studies, which include Kuala Lumpur, Selangor Johor and Penang that applied VG in their development. It explored whether the VG’s implemented is, for public art. Based on the study, the researcher found that VG is implemented for its environmental, economic and aesthetic value. The researcher also noted that all VG that has been implemented at the developments in some ways portray the basic idea of public art which is an artistic expression that is positioned in a freely accessed public space for the public to use, but not just any art placed outside yet still carries the basic concept of art, which to beautify spaces. Hence, the result had shown significant potentials for VG to be introduced as a new form of sustainable public art in urban Malaysia.

THE GABION HOUSE REVISITED Regan Potangaroa

Publisher : Department of Architecture, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS)

Most material on a “Green Concept” for addressing the environmental, social, cultural and institutional issues resulting from global warming and climate change through the implementation of architecture and environmental design usually starts with the “big” picture, policy/theoretical statement. And then migrates towards the “specific design” criteria. However, there is a problem with this approach and experience questions whether it adequately or often appropriately connects with practice as it migrates?The paper revisits a community in Port au Prince Haiti that received gabion houses constructed as part of the response to the 12 January 2010 earthquake. The gabion house was perceived within the humanitarian shelter community as an excellent green concept because it reused rubble, could be built using local skills and was economical comparable to other options. Thus, the question posed to the community after nearly 2 years of living in these gabion houses was whether the houses were more effective than the “standard” house? And from that reflective process are taken design tips for possibly a more humane and Greener Concept.

SPATIAL CONTROL TO REDUCE URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT IN URBAN HOUSING Nurrahmi Kartikawati; Arif Kusumawanto
Journal of Architecture&ENVIRONMENT Vol 12, No 1 (2013)
Publisher : Department of Architecture, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS)

As the world’s issue of global warming, built environment has to be designed to reduce global warming effects such as urban heat island. A large building coverage with small amount of vegetation tends to have urban heat island effect. Some urban housing have typical spatial character that trigger urban heat island effect. Some physical aspects give wide contribution to urban heat island effects, such as space configuration, vegetation and land coverage. The influences of these aspects can be observed by simulating the aspects. As the heritage preservation region, some urban housing such as Kauman Jogjakarta can’t be redesigned by changing its main buildings. Therefore, space configuration changing in a simulation can help to know the influence of space configuration type to thermal comfort of the region. Choosing the right material type to cover the soil will give a good contribution to reduce temperature. The presence of vegetation with various types can reduce heat expose to the areas. Some types of vegetation give a big contribution to reduce temperature. As the material study, choosing the right type of vegetation can reduce temperature and increase microclimate comfort. Areas with high density leafs plants give better contribution to microclimate comfort. High dense leaf plants in existing area were planted with certain pattern. The existing space configuration as perpendicular circulation pattern gives better microclimate condition than random pattern. There are some aspects to reduce the urban heat island effect in urban housing by controlling urban housing space on three main aspect: land coverage, vegetation and space configuration.

Architecture is one of human works that consumed a lot of energy. Present research shows that architecture consumed more than 50% of total energy in the world. That is why awareness of sustainability issues become prominent issues among architects, architecture students and academics. Practically sustainability concept is not some thing new for some countries. Traditional settlements used similar concept to sustainability concept, for example Bali Aga settlement. The settlement showed how the community used the concept as tradition and way of their life.The Bali Aga architecture was developed between 9 to-11 AD and mostly located in the highland or the mountain of Bali. The word “Aga” is used to distinguish the highland settlements from the rest of traditional settlements of Bali which mainly located in the down line of Bali, particularly in the southern Bali. Bali Aga settlements are located mostly in eastern and northern Bali. The village of Tenganan is the prime example of the genre, and for this discourse, the research site was Julah village in Buleleng Regency. This village is located on the northern part of Bali.Referring to Bali Aga’s traditions and customs, the community recognized the relationship between the people and the environment. Bali Aga architecture shows the expression of their tradition that keep the environment sustained. This paper will discuss about tradition of Bali Aga community and how they articulated through their architecture. The aims of this study are to increase the awareness of modern soceity on sustainability issues and learned from tradition of Bali Aga community how to keep environment friendly.

SUSTAINABLE RURAL HOUSING AND THE CHALLENGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE: EXPERIENCES FROM ETHIOPIA Peter Kellett; Elias Yitbarek Alemayehu
Journal of Architecture&ENVIRONMENT Vol 12, No 1 (2013)
Publisher : Department of Architecture, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS)

There is now overwhelming evidence that global warming is taking place, but the impacts on the built environment are less effectively documented. Similarly, climate instability is an additional factor in increasing movement of rural populations to ur-ban centres. Inadequate living conditions in rural areas are also recognised as key components in encouraging such migration – hence efforts to create improved rural housing which is sustainable, affordable and desirable is a fundamental challenge. The Ethiopian Institute of Architecture, Building Construction and City Development (EiABC) at Addis Ababa University is committed to developing research and practice into ways of planning and designing housing and settlements to make them more responsive to both to climatic instability and the challenging socio-economic circumstances of Ethiopia. This paper reports on an on-going experimental sustainable rural housing project which is working with local communities to improve traditional vernacular housing through a range of innovative technologies and practices. Following detailed research into local construction technologies and lifestyles, full size prototypes were constructed to explore the positive elements of vernacular architecture within the framework of sustainability, and to test both the technologies and response of residents. This project is one of several live construction projects in the university which is also developing proposals for urban communities. These innovative projects are analysed in the context of climate change responses and sustainable development paradigms.

Surabaya is the second largest city in Indonesia and has been categorized as a metropolitan. The development of Surabaya is quite fast in terms of physical development. That condition can be observed from the number of high rise buildings at the city centre corridors. One of the corridors in Surabaya city centre is Jalan Pang-lima Sudirman. The corridor is a high density mixed-used area, dominated by commercial and service such as office retails and hotels. From the measurement, it was found that land subsidence happened at Jalan Panglima Sudirman which in the future will impact on environmental physical condition at the location. Therefore, observation of certain items mainly related to urban physical element impact on land subsidence was important. The result expected is the visibility of urban physical element impact in land subsidence at the corridor of Jalan Panglima Sudirman Surabaya.

Publisher : Department of Architecture, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS)

Ternate in North Maluku province has assets with a coastal marine area 5547.55 km2, wider plains than just covering 250.85 km2. Coastal areas become large enough portion for housing development; although prone to disasters, grow uncontrollably, lack of public facilities and the lack of environmental controls. This causes the quality of the coastal environment so declined. Arrangement is needed to prevent the development of sporadic and slums, as well as to anticipate disaster. The purpose of this study is to produce a model of the arrangement of settlements in the coastal zone of the water Ternate, for disaster mitigation. The research method is qualitative with purposive sampling system. The results showed that very precise grid pattern applied in the coastal areas because it can maximize the land use, circulation becomes more fluent evacuation, distribution function and development of the area easier, either macro or micro in accordance with the needs of the region. In addition, the grid pattern can support human circulation and transportation effectively and efficiently.
