Abstract

Architecture is inseparable from visual aspects in the form of representation as a way to establish communication. Due to digitalization and the rapid development of technology, there has been a shift in the paradigm of image representation. Manual images become digital images, from sketching and drawing to image-making and rendering. Digital rendering is considered to be object-oriented and quantitative. It has the characteristics of being precise, fast, reflecting form and materiality, with a photorealistic image as a result. There is no visible involvement of subjects such as architects, image-maker, and observers in the process because the image represents the final outcome. Here, the role of representation to evoke imagination and deeper interpretation is lost, because it does not leave room for intervention and contemplation of the design. That is why another kind of digital method emerged in the world of representation, instead of “rendering” the design as an image, it is relevant to the act of “making” an image as design representation. Its characteristic as a representation method makes the produced images have the ability to be evocative, in order to make its viewers contemplate and interpret the design, which makes it a qualitative representation. The aim of this paper is to understand the act of image-making through digital collage as a medium for qualitative representation in architectural design. By comparing digital rendering and collage images obtained through literature studies, this paper wants to offer the author’s viewpoint on the qualities and experiences brought by architectural representation.

Abstract

The environmental condition of particular landscape contributes to the way of life of people living inside it. The characteristic of Gunung Sewu karst landscape in the south of Gunungkidul Regency causes the regular drought every year. The communities who live in the area, in which the majority of them work as traditional farmers, deal with such situations and gradually adapt to harmonize their lives with those conditions. In order to cultivate their land more intensively under the pressure of environmental conditions, the farmers build omah alas, a simple house to live around their field. Omah alas has characteristics as result of the relationship between people and landscape. This paper aims to identify the characteristics of omah alas as living space for traditional farmers in karst area, specifically in Kemadang Village, and the influencing factors. This research used qualitative approach and the data were collected by field observations and informant interviews. The results showed that there are three types of space layout that are caused by site conditions. The influence of spatial character is reinforced by economic motives.

Abstract

This paper aims to determine the form, type, and utilization of public open space in the urban kampung and see the extent of tolerance in it. Limited land does not make the urban kampung stop providing public open space for its citizens. For this reason, three samples of urban villages were chosen that are considered to represent the characteristics of urban kampungs in the city of Surakarta. The three kampungs are Pringgolayan Village which is the center of several home industries, Karengan Village is a village on the banks of the Solo River, and Mloyokusuman Village is a traditional kampung within Beteng Keraton. This research was conducted by direct observation and interviews with key informants. The results obtained from this study are that there are various types, forms, and uses of public open space in urban villages. As well as the high level of tolerance in the use of public open space in urban kampung so that although there is limited land, conflict tends to be minimal.

Abstract

Thermal comfort is a basic human demand in interacting with space/architectural design. Determination of thermal comfort criteria can help the designer/architect in improving quality, function, and user thermal experience in an artificial environment. ISO 7730: 1994 standard states that the thermal sensation experienced by humans is the result of climate parameters (such as air temperature, radiation temperature, humidity, and wind speed) and human parameters (such as activity and clothing). These parameters were the focus of this study. The work program of this research collaboration was basically divided into 2 phases of activity, namely measuring and monitoring the conditions of thermal comfort in the Gallery 1 environment, Affandi Museum and providing recommendations for improvement of Gallery 1 thermal environment conditions. Primary data was taken from the indoor and outdoor measurement of air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity for 6 months. Physical architectural measurement of this study building and questionnaire methods followed the ASHRAE scale which was simplified to determine the level of thermal comfort, the scale of which was 2 (hot) to -2 (cold). The result of the measurement and analysis using a calculator based upon the ASHARE standard indicated that Gallery 1 of the Affandi Museum was in uncomfortable conditions. While the results of the questionnaire of 20 analyzes showed that at least 87,5% of respondents felt discomfort in Gallery 1, however, 60% of the respondent were still able to enjoy the collection and the atmosphere in gallery 1. The effective temperature index which provide 27,5-27,6 C and 66,7% RH as acceptable indoor environment in warm humid climate at Affandi museum case.

Abstract

Development can be described as two sides of a coin, the first side provides benefits, but on the other side it turns out to have to sacrifice for some people. Jatigede Dam, located in Sumedang Regency, West Java Province, was built in 1998 and its construction resulted in 28 submerged villages. The communities whose areas are submerged must create new villages and switch professions that used to have a livelihood as an agrarian society must switch professions to become aquatic culture communities. This paper discusses experiences in the proposed (re)structuring activities of the Paku Alam Village area in Darmaraja District around the dam. The activity is carried out through the method of recalling the community collective memory, which is brought together with the context of changes in the livelihood culture and ritual culture that is still owned by the village community so that the changing area can be accepted as a "new village" for the community. The data is obtained through searching sites that are considered important by the community, ritual activities that are usually carried out, people's daily lives, and the bad memories of drowned villages, reconciled with the present and future context as part of the region's arrangement. The result is a regional proposal that is expected to meet people's expectations.
