Abstract

Due to the geographic condition of the country, Indonesia is very vulnerable to natural disasters (BNPB, 2017). As a response, this country has various mechanisms of assistance to disaster-affected communities and assistance to fulfil basic needs for disaster victims, one of which includes the provision of ‘huntara’ as temporary shelter for the victims (BNPB, 2008). Because of its temporary nature, transitional shelters in Indonesia generally have a relatively short life cycle of building materials and may produce quite the amount of waste which would be harmful to the environment. This study attempts to understand the material life cycle process in transitional shelters built during the eruption of Mount Merapi Eruption in 2010. This study uses the approach of qualitative research with two main data collection methods—observations and interviews. This study found that the design of transitional shelter for this disaster had allowed for most of the building components to principles of Design for Disassembly, which supports the potential for material loops to occur and possibly to fulfil the characteristics of sustainable transitional shelter. However, neither the victims nor the aid providers were fully aware of this potential: thus, it could not be optimally utilised. This condition is quite unfortunate, considering that Indonesia is very prone to disasters so that transitional shelters will often be needed. Therefore, further studies are required to formulate various design standards for transitional shelter in Indonesia to optimise the potential for longevity and minimise environmental impacts.

Abstract

Land availability is increasingly limited, so it is not surprising that land prices are getting more expensive. However, behind the high price of land, there is a lot of empty space, especially in settlements, in the form of vacant land, buildings, ready-to-build land and built-up land that is not utilized or stalled. There are houses in settlements that are purchased only for investment so that they are not used or occupied by the owner, vacant land such as land under a network of sutets, and land in the form of lots ready to build in unsold housing. This condition is of course very unfortunate given the high price of land and the very high needs of the community for land, especially for housing, social space and as a place of business. Therefore, this research is to see how the occupants agree to fill the empty space in the settlement, using qualitative methods. The results showed that most residents agree that empty spaces in settlements should not be left empty for too long, but can be used for useful things while maintaining public interests, not harming others, not disturbing others, positive activities. and keep the environment clean. The use of empty space in settlements, both formal and non-formal by residents of the premises, is as a place to raise fish, place animal cages, plant fruit and vegetable gardens, park vehicles, play areas for children, place temporary leaf trash, sports fields and night markets.

Abstract

The tectonic knowledge of the people who live in floating houses comes from the understanding of the tradition of building land on stilt houses because the fishing communities who live in floating homes also live on land. However, the climatic conditions above the water are extreme and different from the ground, causing the tectonics of the floating house to adapt to the climatic conditions on the water so that the floating house has resistance to natural disasters on the water. The problem of this research is that there is a change in the tradition of building from traditional mainland stilt houses to floating houses, thus creating a unique tectonic expression in floating homes. This study aims to reveal the tectonics of floating homes based on the tradition of building and surviving on the water. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method with an ethnic-architecture approach. The results showed that the tectonics of the floating house originating from the mainland stilt house tradition underwent changes in several parts, especially in the lower and middle structures. However, it does not change the concept of Bugis society's cosmology. Extreme climatic factors influence the formation of floating house tectonics. For the resilience of houses on the water, a structural system is needed to anticipate climatic conditions.

Abstract

Public space is one of the important elements in a city to accommodate the citizen to do various things. However, it is not uncommon for public spaces to be ignored or unused by the community. Looking at this phenomenon, this study aims to look at the relationship between physical characteristics, activities, and sense of place of a public place. The research used qualitative methods in the first stage and quantitative methods in the second stage. The first stage explores the physical characteristics and activities in public spaces, as well as the user's perceived sense of place. The second stage reveals the correlational relationship between dimensions of physical characteristics, activities, and sense of place. From the results of the correlational analysis, it is revealed that the physical characteristics of the natural environment encourage a sense of meaningful place and encourage refreshing activities which also encourage a sense of meaningful place. In addition, productive activities are carried out by the physical character of the arts and kept away by the physical character of the social atmosphere and parking, as well as encouraging a sense of meaningful place. The physical character of the novelty encourages recreational activities and discourages socialization. In addition, the physical character of accessibility also encourages recreational and socialization activities. As for the physical character, many choices encourage socialization and consumptive activities which then create a sense of only knowing a space.

Abstract

One of the urban infrastructures that reflect the development of a city is a Crossing Bridge. If a city is more developed, the activity of human movement between regions will increase. Crossing Bridge, which is one of the Street Furnitures, functions to ease the people's mobility safely without distracting the flow of existing vehicles. In fact, Crossing Bridge have not been optimally utilized by pedestrians, it can be seen by pedestrian behavior that is applied when passing through the highway by jumping over the barrier. As happened on the Pandanaran road section in the city of Semarang, this behavior causes the bridge to malfunction and brings up further phenomena such as stairs changing into seats and circulating bridges being occupied by homeless people. The purpose of this research is to uncover the connection between the privacy attributes and pedestrian convenience, with the setting conditions of the Pandanaran Crossing Bridge in Semarang, by using a quantitative paradigm approach. The results of the questionnaire in closed form and the Behavioral Mapping method will then be analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis techniques, until it will finally be revealed that the lack of property strength on the Crossing Bridges, which is not able to meet the pedestrians' attribute needs, causes some people choose to cross directly.

Abstract

In the seventeenth century AD, the Sultanate of Aceh under the leadership of Sultan Iskandar Thani made a manuscript entitled Bustanussalatin. This manuscript contains the story of the creation of the universe, the relationship between God and man, the lineage of the sultans of Aceh, as well as a small section about the royal garden called Taman Ghairah. The existence of this garden is still questionable, but scholars who research this garden associate three buildings nearby the former royal palace as a remnant of this Garden. This paper questions whether this garden was built or not and when it was built and the loss of this garden. Through literature review and archival research, this paper tries to trace the presence and disappearance of this garden. The Bustanussalatin manuscript provides information on the development of this garden during the reign of Iskandar Thani. Meanwhile, researchers believe that this garden was already built during the Iskandar Muda era. Portuguese maps provide information that this garden did not exist in the sixteenth century, while a map of the Netherlands in the nineteenth century before the start of the Dutch Aceh War, also does not depict this garden at all. This research proposes the idea that this garden was likely built during the reign of Iskandar Muda and was lost before the Dutch military aggression to Aceh.

Abstract

The Island of Bali is not only rich in natural conditions and landscapes but also has unique socio-cultural and architectural characteristics. This makes the island of Bali a tourism and research destination, especially the indigenous villages that are called Bali Aga. There are approximately twenty-five villages spread and lies on in the four areas of the Bangli Regency. These Bali Agavillages are unique for implementing the original Balinese traditions. Mostly the Bali Aga villages take place in the fringe ofmountains, hilly areas, and along the shores of Lake Batur. The observations on the architecture of the houses found that there arefew traditional buildings called sakaroras still extant. This cannot be separated from technological and communication developments that affect people's lives. The study aims to explore the existence of the indigenous villages in the Bangli Regency,mainly to document the architecture of traditional houses that still exist. Observations were carried out to obtain primary data regarding the architectural conditions of the sakaroras. Interviews were conducted with the village leader to get information aboutthe history, the village’s needs, and the sakaroras house condition. This study found that most sakaroras houses have been turned into a modern house style. This research implies that it is essential to document the existence of the sakaroras place, which tends to change as evidence of cultural heritage and the identity of traditional Balinese architecture. Public awareness to maintaincultural heritage needs to be encouraged through programs to foster the importance of preserving traditional houses.

Abstract

The attractiveness of physical settings covers from its initial concentration on ordinary settings to anthropogenic environments, including the beauty of everyday life in the late twentieth century. A mosque is a place of worship that tends to be influenced by the legacy of glorious Islamic civilization in Indonesia. The current modern architectural design shows the existence of environmental aesthetics and local culture without losing the essence of the mosque as a place of worship. This study aims to determine the public's perception of architectural criticism of mosques with unique designs based on modernity and local culture. The method used is a descriptive case study scrutinizing respondents' perceptions in criticizing the mosque building through online questionnaires. Twenty respondents with an architectural background and 20 without architectural knowledge were chosen to answer Likert scale-based questions. The questions refer to three architectural aspects: symbols or characters, attractiveness, and functionality of the mosque. The results showed that respondents with architectural education background dominantly perceived an eminent consensus on the three architectural features compared to the ones of non-architectural environment. This indicates that respondents with an architectural education background understood the symbolic facet of the setting's attractiveness of mosque better when viewed from architectural criticism's point of view.

Abstract

Each settlement has specific characteristics and characteristics based on their respective backgrounds. Gang Nibung Samarinda is an urban kampong settlement on the banks of the Karang Mumus River of Samarinda City. Characteristics of riverside settlements are different from settlements that do not have rivers, these characteristics can be reviewed from how the community adapts to be able to use space on housing and environment in riverside city villages. The community adapts to be able to meet its needs causing changes in residential space and environmental space. Characteristics of the condition of the Gang nibung settlement site, which is mainly surrounded by rivers, make the orientation of occupancy facing towards the river makes the space on the riverbank becomes used space for its people. This study uses field study methods in reviewing space adaptation activities in riverside villages. This research uses field study methods in reviewing space adaptation activities in the riverside village environment. The results showed that the adaptability pattern of space is influenced by the pattern of the type of clarity of the activity that is accommodated, the pattern of openness of the design of a space, and the pattern of the relationship of space with the surrounding environment.
