Abstract

To a certain extent there is a second life to the former Dutch cemetery Peneleh inthe centre of the city of Surabaya, Indonesia. The present days obsolete conditioncan be revitalised through the needed expansion of the pasar; a recreational area to the residents of the densely populated surrounding kampung; a reuse of the former caretaker house at the entrance, which is now a Puskesmas, community health centre, and part of the graveyard can revive as monumental location to show the history.These strong points to revitalise the area are effective through a close connection with residents, planners and authorities, which can be put in aparticipatory process. Dead or alive, potentially the Peneleh area is worth to beredeveloped into an attractive residential part of Surabaya. A heritage worth to visit by domestic and foreign visitors.

Abstract

The presence of pottery industry in Dukuh Krajan a potential to home-based Indus-try that can be developed in Malang. But the existence of craftmen’s settlement is not planned and managed well, so there are several problem that exist such as the lack of natural lighting and ventilation inside the house, kiln in the middle of the settlement pollutes the air and fire risk,and space conflict in craftmen house between domestic and economic needs. Behavioral architecture approach is used to make sure the design result based on the society’s needs and behavior. This is a qualitative study which is focussed on community’s social condition. Samples for this study consists of three elements, place, actors, and activity. For activity sample, data that being observed is covert behavior (collected through interviews) and overt behavior (collected through observation). The expected result is model of an alternative block plan in the pottery craftmen’s settlement. Block plan design shows the arrangement of the building mass and open space in pottery craftsmen’s settlement that can provide solutions to security and comfort of the building. Design performed on selected existing locations, existing condition and community are used as a basis for composing the design criteria.

Abstract

Indonesia’s traditional house have been imposed to steadily extend their functionality at comfortable living. The expanding application of basic in this context has lead to the emergence of the terms responsive technology to describe a building envelope form that can meet such demands, be it to a varying degree of success. Within the scope of this paper, intelligent behaviour for a building envelope by means of psychical process defined as adaptiveness or responsive to the environment which enables the envelope to solve conflicts and deal with new situations that occur in its interaction with the environment. This definition is used as a basis for an analysis of the functions a local technology can be expected to perform in the context of incident solar radiation and indoor temperature to the requirements of the traditional building occupant. Among the characteristics discussed in this paper, are the traditional wall’s ability to adapt the indoor climate and preferences, to choose the most appropriate response in each situation, to anticipate the development of environmental conditions, and to evaluate its own performance. Several stage are discussed: Wogo House’s responsive environment, wall technology, thermal environment and and contemporary context. The result of study in Flores Island illustrated that the traditional house achieved good thermal environment performance by responsive wall technology in Wogo traditional house.

Abstract

Due to the rapid aging of the Dutch population and aging-in-place policies, anincreasing demand for suitable dwellings focused on the human dimension of construction is to be expected. This global issue of aging in place is a wakeup call for us architects to move towards constructions that empower this active aging. A significant contribution can be provided by “Domotics”; which is defined as the advanced technological equipments and services in the domestic environment to sustain and to enhance the quality of aging in place as well as empowerment of the senior citizen (in daily life). This paper is based on literature review, qualitative and quantitative studies i) it seeks to inform the development of domotics technology in the living environment of the older adults; ii) it provides an overview of the multiplicity of needs and attitudes of the older citizens in regards to smart technology in the domestic environment; iii) and develops recommendations to incorporate domotics in the architectural structure of the dwelling keeping the Human factor in mind. This study on senior citizens’ needs and attitudes toward domotics is based upon a triangulation of cohort-group discussions, enabling techniques and in-depth interviews followed by a postal questionnaire survey. The findings indicate that needs, perceptions, environmental and personal attributes of the seniors determine their attitudes towards automation. This attitude can be described as ‘critical/positive’. Too much automation, where little or no consideration is put towards the user’s needs, is regarded as undesirable. Ethical considerations are particularly related to, professional stakeholders, especially caregivers, whereas seniors are mainly interested in the functionality of domotics. The integration and domestication of domotics in a house needs to be a synthesis of the user’s needs, technology, the living environment, services and healthcare.To enable aging in place and the acceptance of (care through) domotics we need, i) to familiarize inhabitants with smart technology, ii) to domesticate and personalize it, iii) as well as to (imperceptibly) apply need-based technology in the (pre-existing) homes.

Abstract

The presence of national trade center and industry in an area could provoke urbanization. As it is known that the problem of urbanization always leads to an increased demand of housing. Similarly, the development of Puspa Agro (AgrobisTrade Center) and industry in Taman Sub-District, Sidoarjo. If the surroundingsettlements grow out of control, the region will eventually face problems like thegrowth of marginal areas. Besides the agricultural sector could also be threatened because of diminishing land area. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent of settlement’s development in Desa Sadang and Jemundo before and after the development of Puspa Agro and industry. Then, we look for the proper arrangement’s concepts of eco-settlement to be applied at the sites. Method used in this study is qualitative descriptive with naturalistic paradigm. This is to obtain factual and accurate description of the changes in settlement’s condition before and after the development of Puspa Agro and industry. Primary data was collected by interview, observation, and physical measurement. The result of this study shows that the settlement’s development is still in the standard of housing and settlements. Also discovered the right concept of eco-settlement’s arrangement to be applied around the trade center and industry.

Abstract

The catalyst for this paper was the continuation of poor national outcomes in Aboriginal employment and quality of lifestyle, despite 35 years of sustained gover-nment service delivery. The persistence of Aboriginal identities and cultures, albeit in transformed states, is a dominant continuity despite the pulses and shifts of policies. Nevertheless, debate has recently embraced whether Aboriginal people can participate in the market economy and yet still retain traditional culture (Sarra 2009), and whether retention of traditional culture has contributed inadvertently to community dysfunction (Altman 2009;Sutton 2009). The paper explores a case study of remote Aboriginal cultural and socioeconomic empowerment situated within the fields of both mainstream economy and service delivery in the Myuma Group. From the research, there is a range of significant good-practice strategies and methods underpinning Myuma’s success. In historical order, the first was the use of a native title claim from which to obtain an initial set of economic assets (infra structure, contracts). A second strategy was an inclusive (rather than exclusive) approach to spreading the enterprise benefits created by a small Indjilandji extended family group to a regional bloc of multiple language groups and to other beneficiaries in the wider community. This enabled the Myuma Group to project itself as a benefactor for the regional Aboriginal population (not simply as a nepotistic family-based firm) an image that was essential to attract strong government support and local and regional legitimacy.

Abstract

Bioclimatic architecture as a design approach takes an advantage climate parameters to answer the problems of environment and energy. This approach is applied to optimize the quality of architectural design through the comfort and health of their environment. It was developed by simulating the design in the case of a middle apartment in Surabaya. To achieve its design goals is simulated: 1) transforming mass-form, 2) setting housing-unit plan, 3) making housing-unit facade, and 4) organizing overall lay-out. Simulation of this design is using several alternative designs to obtain an optimal design. Bioclimatic architecture is successfully implemented if it can optimize the potential of the existing climate. Bioclimatic quality is achieved when a middle apartment is designed to optimize penetration of natural light, cooling and air exchange building mass as well as minimize the acquisition of direct solar radiation. Bioclimatic architecture approach requires consideration of such architectural contexts: urban, economic and social aspects, because the technical nature.

Abstract

Cities and tows are places with the highest population numbers and densities on the planet. They have been the centres of conglomeration, politic, culture, innovation and connectivity within the globalized world. Globally, cities consume more water, food, vast array of raw materials and consume up to 67% of all energy and contribute 71% of all greenhouse gas emissions. They also exhibit the contrast of poverty and wealth in close physical proximity, with slums located right next to the shining high-rises and gated elite communities. This continuous urbanization mainly swells the numbers of low-income households leading to what some experts have termed by “urbanization of poverty”. However, Cities and towns are also entities whose functioning mostly depends on higher order, interrelated systems. The dynamic nature of urban environments and bad inter-relationships between infrastructure, institutions and ecosystems can lead to cascading failures or “complex disasters”. This characteristic makes the urban areas different from surrounding countryside especially in vulnerabilities. The resilience here is defined as the ability to withstand, recover from and reorganize in response to crises to improve by strengthening “resilience characteristic” such as robustness, redundancy and resourcefulness and “resilience performance” such as risk reduction/preparation, response and recovery of various population groups and urban subsystems.

Abstract

Sustainable development of settlement is an attempt to improve the quality of human life from the aspect of environmental sustainability, social, or economic, which is done to integrate and harmonize three aspects. Donggala Kodi is one of the areas included in the administrative boundaries of the Palu city which a with fairly steep slope topography and height of 200m. Under these conditions, in principle, to make into one of the proneness. Development of settlement areas by utilizing its asset base, need to specify the form of the space requirements, related social, economic and environmental. This is to achieve sustainable development, as well as how to address the imbalance that exists. Participatory approach with the involvement of the community in order to draw up conceptual sustainable settlements is one effective approach to solve the problem. This paper discusses how the preparation of conceptual framework of sustainable settlements with community participation approach. The result of the discussion related to the formulation of the concept of residential development on the socio-economic empowerment of the community, and using the environment-based community.

Abstract

The objectives, “Why Are We Becoming Green”? The first idea to greening the structural architecture building just recognized recently, why? Because there was a belief that the environmental enhancement efforts to combat its degraded environmental quality including “the green (building) is not our business, it is government business”. It is actually everybody business. In urban area, eighty percent of our activities are inside the building; at home, office, school, factory, hotel, gym, etc, only a small amount of the time spent outside the building, on the road or inside the car. Green is at the moment, a popular term in our daily life; a lot of companies and businesses claimed that they are green, by merely applying certain features in their properties. A lot of new property development claim that their development is “green”. Some Indonesian architects and engineers have been designing and applying the green principles in the design and achieve what supposed to be a green building standard. It is not merely a trend, it has to be a lifestyle change, the demand of the consumer of a “green” living environment meets the planet current conditions, climate change and degrading environmental conditions. The theoretical frame work is that it is timely and important to establish a Green Building Council. “Green” has become the shorthand term for the concept of sustainable development as applied to the building industry. Green buildings, including the appropriate site development as a sound landscape planning and design also known as high performance “buildings” in terms of i.e. materials efficient used, wise settings in the case of socio-economy-physical environment development as a whole, are intended to be environmentally responsible, economically profitable, and healthy places to live and work. If not, then all of us will be suffer caused by the negative environmental impacts. As human beings as part of the planet biological creature, we should be part and follow the natural law of the globe natural process.
