Abstract

It is the purpose of this study to examine the domestic space arrangement of the private rental housings in kampung (urban village) settlement. Kampung Ngentak Sapen, an urban periphery settlement at Yogyakarta, Indonesia was selected as a case study due to the occurrence of a lot of its houses, which were gradually expanded to be a private rental housing. This study focused on how the households re-arrange their domestic space to be shared with the tenants. Besides, the implication of this change on spatial occupation within a private rental housing will be discussed.

The domestic space arrangement of the private rental housing could be categorized into maximum separation, moderate separation, and minimum separation based on the number of spaces which might be interchangeably used by both the household and the tenants.
