Abstract

Despite significant physical deterioration and the absence of comprehensive digital documentation, Sumenep Palace remains an important architectural and historical heritage site. The goal of this paper is to propose a digital conservation scheme using augmented reality technology. The system integrates photogrammetry, LiDAR scanning, and manual measurements to produce accurate three-dimensional (3D) models. These models, freely available on Android devices, were implemented in an augmented reality (AR) application we developed, using marker-based (QR code) tracking. Testing showed object loading times ranging from 8 seconds to 11 minutes, depending on the number of models, highlighting the need to optimize geometry for mobile AR. The resulting program functions both as a conservation database and as an interactive, accessible tool for teaching history. This approach can serve as a replicable template for other heritage sites in Indonesia, while also demonstrating the potential of augmented reality as a means of protecting digital cultural assets.

Abstract

The Graduate School of Syiah Kuala University consists of five main buildings, one of which is Building B. Building B serves as a space for educational activities at the master's (S2) and doctoral (S3) levels. Based on observations, Building B features windows (openings) of very large dimensions, with the building and window orientations facing west and east. This condition results in excessive and glaring natural lighting, causing thermal discomfort. Consequently, the rooms are often used with curtains, artificial lighting such as lamps, and tinted glass windows, specifically ray-band glass. This study aims to evaluate the natural lighting levels in lecture rooms based on the Indonesian National Standard (SNI No. 6197-2020). Data collection was conducted using a quantitative method, obtained through direct visual observations and field measurements, including openings, building dimensions, and illumination levels measured with a Lux Meter. The measured illumination values were then analyzed based on the SNI No. 6197-2020 standard and the observational results, enabling the identification of factors affecting natural lighting intensity. The findings indicate that the natural lighting levels within the building do not meet the SNI 6197-2020 standard for classrooms, which is 350 Lux. The average illumination value measured using the Lux Meter was 109.69 Lux.

Abstract

This study aims to map the characteristics and potential uses of digital virtual media as extensions of spatial architecture within the context of tourism. Beyond serving as mere representations, this study argues that digital virtual media function as a transformation of spatial architecture. The concept of multi‑spatiality emphasizes the inseparable relationship between physical and digital architecture. In the context of tourism, architectural objects such as museums are experiential spatial designs that can be further expanded through digital virtual media. This qualitative study uses the Aceh Tsunami Museum as a case study. Through observation, various media‑based modes of representing this architectural object were identified. This study focuses on mapping the characteristics of each media-based spatial model. The findings from this characterization are synthesized into three main concepts: multi-access, multi-user, and multi-time, which together represent an extension of the architectural experience itself. This study positions architecture not only as a physical structure but also as an evolving spatial entity, extending beyond mere duplication to encompass diverse digital and virtual dimensions.

Abstract

The implementation of the sustainable development paradigm requires the collaboration of various parties. This is not easy to achieve due to the conflict of interest and dominance of certain aspects. This study explores the concept of holistic sustainability within traditional communities in the context of water resource conservation, using the cultural landscape of the Sumberawan Site in Malang as a case study. The research contributes to the development of local-traditional knowledge, which has proven effective in supporting sustainable development initiatives. The methodology employs Claude Lévi-Strauss’s structuralism to interpret the conceptual meaning embedded in the cultural landscape of Sumberawan Temple. Syntagmatic analysis is used to examine the sequential elements within each ‘myth,’ while paradigmatic analysis investigates the relationships between interchangeable ‘myths.’ Pattern identification is conducted through a binary opposition model. The study finds that the preservation of the Sumberawan water source is rooted in the strengthening of spiritual beliefs and the holistic integration of social and environmental elements. The message of conservation is transmitted across generations through myths, folklore, cultural rituals, artifacts, and spatial arrangements.

Abstract

The Indonesian government initiated the establishment of Ibu Kota Negara (IKN), relocating Indonesia’s capital to East Kalimantan to address the unsustainable and uneven existing urban development, along with the impacts of climate change issues. As the first city in the country to be built from scratch, IKN represents an opportunity to pioneer a sustainable environment by adopting Net Zero Energy (NZE) standards. The scope of this paper is limited to discussing city planning and the green building sector. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method based on literature review to analyze the evolution of urban development policies in Indonesia towards Net Zero Energy (NZE) standards on the development of IKN. Furthermore, this paper focuses on the government’s efforts to transform from previous policies to the NZE framework through public sector reforms, policy and regulation reform, implementation, and challenges. It also delves into the early stages of NZE adoption on a national scale within Indonesia's unique socio-political context. The IKN serves as a pilot project for achieving NZE, its success is crucial not only for demonstrating the feasibility of NZE nationwide. Hence, the execution of IKN should be neutral and free from any political intentions to ensure its citizen-centric purpose is not obscured.

Abstract

The complexity of settlements is shaped by the diversity of user activities and the intensity of social interactions, both of which are influenced by accessibility and spatial configuration. Connectivity systems play a crucial role in linking shared spaces and public services, thereby supporting social and economic activities. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of spatial configuration patterns in Benteng Keraton Buton using the space syntax method, combined with Geographic Information System (GIS) overlays. Space syntax analysis is employed to assess accessibility based on three key variables: connectivity, integration, and spatial intelligibility. The findings reveal that public spaces and key facilities are concentrated in areas with high levels of accessibility, while areas with low connectivity tend to experience spatial isolation. These results support existing theories of spatial configuration, which propose that accessibility influences the intensity of space utilization and patterns of social interaction. This study offers new insights into the spatial organization of historical settlements and presents a data-driven approach to inform preservation strategies and the sustainable management of similar heritage areas.

Abstract

The community waste bank is recognized as an important element in urban waste management, but its effectiveness is often limited by suboptimal spatial configuration, which hinders social interaction and community participation. This study examines the relationship between spatial configuration and social interaction patterns in community waste banks to reveal how spatial layout influences the quality of social interaction at the Klampok Kasri 2 Waste Bank Unit. Space Syntax is employed as a relevant method to analyze the influence of spatial accessibility and connectivity on social behavior. The research focuses on eight waste bank units. Data analysis was carried out using the Space Syntax method and structured observation. The results show a strong correlation between spatial integration and the intensity of social interaction, while connectivity has a moderate influence. Areas with high global integration consistently support more frequent social interaction, whereas spaces with moderate integration levels foster a greater diversity of social activities. These findings contribute to enhancing the effectiveness of community-based waste banks through improved spatial configuration. They also provide a foundation for developing strategic spatial planning guidelines aimed at increasing social interaction and community participation, both of which are critical to supporting sustainable urban waste management.

Abstract

The third space is an interaction space that connects spatiality, history, and social aspects. As a space that surpasses other spaces, the third room should also show good urban design quality. This study seeks to reveal the characteristics of the Third Space in the historical street of Kayutangan and its relationship with the Quality of Urban Design through behavior mapping techniques based on Naturalistic Observation. The research uses a qualitative approach with observation units of activity type, frequency, direction of face, spatial distance, duration of activity, gender, age, and environmental stimulus in observing the character of the Third Space. This unit was analyzed using the dimensions of imageability: sense of place, place identity, and attractiveness. It was found that there are 13 symptoms of the Third Space in the area and their relationship with the quality of urban design. These aspects are the heterogeneity of activities, the participation of informal actors, the existence of street vendors, cultural heritage, permeability, sense of healing, sense of navigation, sense of reflection, architectural didacticism, the completeness of street furniture, social interaction, interaction between street furniture and informal actors, and the existence of iconic buildings.

Abstract

This research aims to explain the idea of the presence of Sasak women's space in the nensek tradition in Keloke Hamlet. This study uses the Ricoeur hermeneutic approach. Data to explain this was obtained through field observations and interviews. The findings, including those related to women's space and its existence, are explained by the existence of high life values that support the nensek tradition. Among them, it is seen as a religious value that is the basis for the formation of women's space and then becomes a cultural mandate that requires every woman to be a grandmother and be able to be a grandmother. The nensek tradition is seen to continue to grow, in line with the ideals by which Sasak Keloke women can reflect to see themselves in their life journey. In other words, with the nensek tradition inherited from their ancestors and the survival of women's space as a cultural mandate, Sasak women can meet their ancestors again, which is also proof that they have carried out their duties as heirs of the culture left by their ancestors.
