International Journal on Livable Space
International Journal on Livable Space is focused on the three main aspects of livable space: community life, environment and technology. It is interested at inhabitation process, spatial structures (of houses, housings, neighborhoods, settlements, cities/urban, and territories), with its essential factors (social, cultural, economic, politics, and ideology), including reviews of phenomena in the context of philosophy. It is also interested at spatial context in relation to the aspects of safety, climatic change, social-cultural connectivity, quality of architecture, public facilities, spatial tolerance, environmental issues, ecological access, and the concepts and praxis of community based development.

Traditional societies have always retained unique experiences and understanding about their houses. The experiences and understanding tend to be subjective, yet there is a real manifestation. This study aims to explain the concept of sacred-profane on room arrangement of heirloom houses at Mandailing society. This rationalistic study has been conducted in a descriptive-explorative way of using sacred-profane theory. The result shows that the room arrangement on heirloom houses of Mandailing society retain one space that is persistently existed, although the house is continued to grow, i.e., “Pantar Tonga” (middle room as living room). The room has become a universal pillar or axis mundi as well as sacred object. The sacred value of pantar tonga has reinforced the existence of the heirloom house until now without any significant change. Keywords: Heirloom House, Sacred- Profane, Axis-Mundi, Pantar Tonga

AbstractSa'o (traditional house) in Gurusina, Flores is a house that was designed based on the local wisdom of Ngadha tribe that is directly or indirectly constructed by considering thermal factors i.e., temperature and humidity, wind speed, and heat gain. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between heat conductivity features of building envelope material towards the aspects of thermal comfort. Data gathered and analyzed through field measurements supported by structural physical figures. The research results show that first, when the study was conducted, the temperature in Gurusina exceeded the lower and upper limit of the average temperature that was considered comfort hot for Indonesians. This affects the high heat transmission through wall material so that the inside temperature is considered uncomfortable. Second, the use of half wall (exceeding 20% of the floor area) and the existence of open space around the building that has the potential to flow the wind with a speed of more than 2m/sc, can reduce the indoor heat temperature due to solar heat transmission from wall and roof materials. Key words: thermal comfort; building envelope; traditional house

Omah dudur was discovered as a typical house in Urut Sewu, Purworejo-Kebumen, Central Java, Indonesia. By this research, it was found that Omah Dudur is considered as a manifestation of universe of human, god and nature as well as a pusaka (heirlooms). It is believed that interrelation among the three universes will influence to the successes and failures of occupants life. As a pusaka (heirlooms) which has the power and strength of wahyu, the omah dudur spiritually should be offered by certain ritual in the regular sacred time. Methodologically, this research implies Husserl’s paradigm phenomenology (1965) with the naturalistic framework of Egon G Lincoln and Guba (1985). Result of the study should be contributed to the knowledge of local concepts of typology of traditional and vernacular Javanese architecture. Keywords: omah dudur, wahyu, contextual transcendent, pusaka.

AbstractUrban Heat Island (UHI) is related to the increase of urban compared to rural temperature as the result of global phenomenon. The increase of temperature is predicted to be intensified along with the extend of urban activity in the near future. Therefore, the discussion on UHI becomes significance. This paper discusses the result of literature studies on thermal characteristics of materials that potentially used to reduce Urban Heat Island, especially in utilizing pavement and roof cover. The result of the study concludes that the reduction of UHI is determined by: 1) the high-level albedo (the ratio between the reflected heat and the absorbed heat) of material that is influenced by the color and texture of its surface; 2) The high level thermal emittance of material; 3) The lower capacity of material to store the heat. 4) The capability thermal conductivity of material surface. Recommended pavements to reduce UHI are cool pavement, reflective pavement, porous pavers, permeable pavers, pervious pavement, water retaining pavement. Roof cover materials that reduce Urban Heat Island are Cool Roof and Green Roof. The design and toughness of materials should be considered to reduce UHI. Keywords: Urban Heat Island, material feature, thermal performance.

Abstract The rapid urban growth at the periphery area developed by residential developers impacted on the socio-spatial segregation between new and pre-existing indigenous settlements. One phenomenon is that many indigenous settlements are enclaved in the new settlement area. Changes in landscape and environment around indigeneus settlement are occured as a result of a pressure. It is the main factor for suddened changes in the pattern of livelihood of enclaved settlement inhabitants. This article is intended to explain the findings on how the inhabitants of enclaved settlement respond and survive to these changes and pressures in the spatial context. The study employed descriptive analysis method by observing the characteristics of settlements by focusing on the quality of inhabitants’ life related to the spatial changes and segregations phenomena. The results of the study highlight that the spatial changes and the survival community are a form of adaptation procces to get economic benefit by making changes to their lands or buildings because of the residential development in its sorrounding. These phenomena resulted in the emergence of economic interactive space in the specific spatial arrangement. Keywords: enclaved settlements, economic interactive space, adaptation

The street space is a part of urban public spaces. The various functions of street space in generally are as a mode of transporting space, as shared space for citizens and also as an architectural expression of spaces that contain the collective memory of its citizens. This research is focusing on the uniqueness of the street networks and canals in the city of Banjarmasin. Further, exploration of the combination of streets and canals is done to get the spatial characteristics. The purpose of this research is to determine how and why the street spaces changed and what components have influenced the characteristics of the space in the city of Banjarmasin. This research uses an empirism paradigm with the case study method focusing on the corridor of Jalan Veteran. The analytical method used is to discover street spaces in both two (2) and three (3) dimensional perspectives. Simplification and categorization patterns conducted to reveal the main characteristics of the street spaces. The findings of the study show that the formal and informal characters of each street space influence the growth rate of the buildings, the changing face of the region, and the shift of the old buildings into the new ones. Double canals are known as formal characteristic and single canals are known as informal ones. The chanal elements in the street spaces have a big influence to change the street spaces' characteristic. Keywords: characteristic, street space, space transformation, canal
