Abstract

This thesis explores innovative housing solutions aimed at enhancing flood resilience and thermal comfort in Jakarta, Indonesia, a city that faces significant challenges due to its tropical climate characterized by intense heat and frequent flooding. Drawing from successful case studies in Bangkok, Thailand, and Singapore, this research examines the integration of architectural and urban planning strategies tailored to mitigate these environmental challenges. In Bangkok, elevated housing structures and community infrastructure demonstrate effective flood management techniques, while Singapore’s implementation of green buildings showcases advanced passive cooling methods and sustainable urban practices. This study proposes specific architectural models for Jakarta, integrating elevated designs, green roofs, and advanced passive cooling strategies. By adapting these proven solutions to Jakarta’s unique context, the thesis aims to provide practical frameworks that improve the city’s resilience to climatic adversities and enhance the quality of urban life.
