Abstract

The sustainability of traditional housing in the city is threatened by the development of lifestyles and economic demands. The occupants of traditional houses consist of several generations whose needs and desires are different but must follow the times. For housing to remain comfortable for occupants and keep up with the times, this research examines how the attitudes and motivations of residents towards the existence of the house they live in. The research in this paper studies how traditional houses experience development due to changes in the lifestyle of residents and how traditional houses can survive and adapt to changing times. By collecting data through semi-structured in-depth interviews with occupants of traditional houses and observations of traditional houses in Limo Koto Kampar Riau, this study collects data on community motivations in developing traditional houses. Through the Means-End Chain analysis, this paper aims to find development in traditional houses that they do. The results showed that the portion of the house that remained did not change and the part that experienced significant changes. The paper shows how traditional houses adapt to the lifestyles of residents and new functions.
