Abstract

This research explores the territorial transformation in the residential spaces of silver artisans in Celuk Village, Sukawati, Gianyar, Bali, an area undergoing changes amidst a decline in the number of traditional silver craftsmen. The study aims to understand how socio-economic dynamics and urbanization affect residential spaces and silver crafting practices. This research employs a territorial analysis approach to evaluate changes in demographics, economics, and migration patterns of artisans and to map how these factors interact with the traditional values and cultural identity of the artisan community. The study's findings are expected to provide strategic insights for the preservation efforts of silver craftsmanship in Celuk, highlighting the need for more inclusive and sustainable urban planning. This research also investigates the shift from traditional workshop spaces to commercial spaces, offering insights into how adaptations to market demands and economic trends impact the lives and work of the artisan community. These overall findings are crucial to supporting local government strategies and stakeholders in promoting the sustainability of the silver craft industry while preserving the rich cultural heritage of Celuk Village. The results reveal that most houses originally used as silver workshops have been repurposed into other businesses, such as general commercial enterprises and banks. This indicates significant economic diversification, with around 46.67% of the houses that were previously silver shops now converted to other uses. Economic factors, such as the declining demand for silver products, are the primary reasons for this change.
