To make a site become a place is the existential function of architecture. The definition of architecture as identification of place (Unwin, 2003), comes with a purpose that architecture is also a process to discover the essence, the meaning conceivably present in the given environment. In the case of Kampung Ketandan Surabaya, the architecture is produced by the community by preserving and revitalizing the character of the kampung, with regards to its history, its activities and its buildings. Balai Pertemuan Warga in the form of Pendhopo is one of many other community centers in the kampung. This paper investigates in what way architecture generates symbolic places. Descriptive criticism is used as a method to investigate the phenomenon by considering architecture as a way of art and finding the interrelationship between the elements in it. To grasp the context of Kampung Ketandan, a case study method is chosen because of its ability to explore and endow the holistic, yet meaningful aspects of a presence phenomenon happening in reallife. The results of the study revealed that place is a holistic phenomenon, determining an 'environmental character' and architecture is a symbol to identify it.
The Indonesian archipelago has typical traditional dwelling richness on every island. In island city, Bawean, the wind effect becomes very critical to the identification of environmental adaptation of its dwelling. The aim of this study was to identify the adaptation characteristics of traditional dwelling to the environmental archipelago condition of Bawean island. In this study, two main dwellings as references are the traditional houses, Bangsal or Limas and Barn, Durung. Generally, this research involves two major steps as follows: (1) Identification and specification phase (field observations, measurements) of the characteristics of building performance, (2) Simulation phase of the thermal performance of traditional house (using Ecotect Analysis and CFD Programs). This results highlighted that the houses performance is not optimum, both in spreads and compact orders. Meanwhile, Durung has better performance, only 17% of the samples are in discomfort condition (spread or compact). The optimum condition is achieved when the settlement spread out, otherwise uncomfortable when it is in the dense environment. The houses in daytime conditions are in the discomfort conditions and lower cooling load, while the night-time conditions are in the quadrant of optimum conditions, comfort, and low cooling load.
Abstrak-Fenomena UMKM dapat dilihat pada kampungkampung di Surabaya, salah satunya adalah kampung Genteng Candirejo. Identitas Genteng sebagai Pusat Oleh-oleh Surabaya menjadikan kawasan ini memiliki potensi untuk mewadahi dan menjadi pertahanan UMKM Surabaya. Redesain Pasar Genteng menjadi respon arsitektural dalam perencanaan keberlanjutan UKM Surabaya.
