Abstract

Primbon as Javanese local knowledge has been a guide for Javanese everyday and ritual life, included buildings, for decades. This paper intends to investigate the use of primbon in the Kraton Yogyakarta (Palace of Yogyakarta) as the representation of the sultan (king). The investigation was conducted through interpretive criticism to reveal the degree of conformity under the rules and principles in primbon as an attempt to form a new perspective in understanding the primbon. The analysis focuses on verses 172 and 194–196 of Primbon Betaljemur Adammakna, which deals with the arrangement of buildings. By transliterating the verses into English and interpreting the application of the verses in Kraton Yogyakarta, the study demonstrated the manifestation of the primbon verses in the kraton’s building arrangement. The study of primbon reveals the role of kraton as the representation of the earth in the universe, while the representation here displays the hierarchical arrangement of building facilities, from sacred to nonsacred or from private to public.

Abstract

This paper aims to show that for the safety of the occupants in today's architecture, we could learn from the spatial arrangement of the past architecture. In this paper, the adoption of the historiography method from historians was used to trace the genealogy of past architecture. Historiography is a method that is used to trace history back to the past to understand the past. By using historiography, the genealogy (line of a descendant) of vernacular Javanese building will be traced to find the transitional space in the spatial arrangement of the complex of housing. And then, the genealogy of vernacular Japanese buildings will be traced too, to find the transitional space in their spatial arrangement housing. To represent the European building, the genealogy of the Greek building will be used. Again, transitional space will be traced in their building. After that, the finding from these tracing will be compared to find the similarity and differences of the transition spaces. The result of this study showed that people from countries of samples did not design their building with open access to the spatial arrangement. There is always a transitional space from outside of the building to inside of the building. Because open access will make the occupants of the building prone to safety. Not only from tangible (physical) threats but also the intangible threats.

Abstract

Penulisan sejarah arsitektural diperlukan sebagai tanda keberadaan arsitektur itu sendiri. Tanpa penulisan sejarah, arsitektur tidak akan dapat ditelusuri perkembangannya dan tidak akan dapat dipelajari presedenpresedennya, tidak akan dapat dikritisi kebenarannya. Tetapi penulisan sejarah tentang arsitektur harus hati-hati supaya tidak terjebak ke dalam penulisan sejarah yang pada akhirnya lebih mementingkan aspek nonarsitektur atau dengan kata lain penulisan sejarah yang non-arsitektural. Buku ini berusaha membedah tentang pemahaman dari sejarah arsitektur, pendekatan-pendekatan yang dapat dilakukan untuk menulis sejarah dan kegunaan dari sejarah arsitektur. Dengan membedah tentang pemahaman akan sejarah arsitektural maka dapat ditemukan metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan sejarah arsitektural yaitu metode historiografi arsitektural. Pembacaan buku ini menggunakan metode critical reading sehingga dapat diulas pemahaman akan sejarah arsitektural.
