Nilai Filosofis Tata Ruang Bangunan Tradisional Bali dalam Teks Asta Kosala Kosali

<em>The concept of Balinese Architecture in the arrangement of the spatial value of traditional Balinese buildings which includes in the Asta Kosala Kosali text, provides the spatial design and layout of the building so that it has a philosophical value at the position of certain buildings. Structuring the building is supported by the concept of Tri Angga, Tri Mandala and lontar Asta Bhumi which can be in harmony between one building with another. The structure of this building can be seen from the shape of Padma Bhuwana which regulates the direction and symbol of the building. This can be influenced by values / spirituality, conditions / potentials owned, and economic commodities owned in the area that will be built.</em>

Re-Design Homestay Lokal Selaras Dengan Industri Pariwisata

For a house that is in a tourism location, the house not only functions as a residence, but also has a high economic value, which can be rented and combined with other businesses so as to maximize profits. Nevertheless, the customs and traditions of Balinese Culture and local wisdom must still be preserved. Sanur Village is one of the tourist destinations in Bali which is very well known to foreign countries with its traditions and natural beauty. Sanur is a tourist area where most of the local people become tourism operators. The houses where people live are traditional and religious places of activity, as well as being a place of business in tourism or supporting tourism facilities. For example, it is used for homestays including supporting facilities, such as restaurants, spas, loundries, bicycles or motorbike rental, and also cooperation as promotion agents for other tourist attractions. For this reason, a planned arrangement is needed in the form of a master plan from the area of the resident's house so that it remains private to be occupied with the family, that is, as a place to live as well as a place to perform traditional ceremonies /events, and also to have privacy for guests who stay overnight. Sanur Homestay is one of the many homestays in Sanur that is owned and managed by the local community. With a fairly large area of land like most house land in the village, the arrangement of the building is still not optimal, where the owner's activity and circulation still mingle with the guests' activities and circulation. Likewise for the standard of accommodation facilities it still needs to be added to maximize services. Planning is done by collecting site and existing buildings data, then grouping which buildings are permanent and which ones are suitable for renovation. Then designed new facilities in the form of buildings for homestays, restaurants, spas, front offices, service areas, and site management in the form of swimming pools and open spaces. The design is carried out with the concept of applying the principles of Traditional Balinese Architecture, namely the application of the Nawa Sanga concept on site zoning and the application of the Tri Angga concept to the appearance figure of the building, which is combined with Modern Tropical Architecture.

Perancangan Peningkatan Fungsi Hunian Masyarakat Di Lingkungan Pariwisata Untuk Menunjang Perekonomian Di Tampaksiring

Today's development requires humans to be more creative in seeing potential as a source of income. For a house that is in a tourism location, the house not only functions as a residence, but also has a high economic value, which can be rented and combined with other businesses so as to maximize the function of the house. Mancingan is one of the areas in Tampaksiring that has a huge natural tourism potential. Many domestic and foreign tourists travel to Tampaksiring, because they offer natural tourism based on local wisdom which is their own characteristic. This potential is a very potential thing to be utilized by the local community to improve the level of the family's economy while still preserving the Balinese tradition. In Tampaksiring there are still not many accommodation facilities, so it is a huge opportunity for local people to take advantage of these conditions. Generally the land from local people's houses is very wide and there is a lot of empty space, this is because it is still thick with the application of the Traditional Balinese Architecture concept which is characterized by this. Residential dwellings can be used with special planning to be used as a residence as well as functioning as a rental room. Circulation planning absolutely must be the main consideration to determine the zoning of the spaces in it to have optimal privacy and comfort. The position of the bedroom is good for family use or rented absolutely must get a positive view, as well as natural lighting and air to maximize the potential of the site into the building. Likewise for the concept of Traditional Balinese Architecture in the form of Natah as open space which is the center of the orientation of the building is still applied in this residence, because it is a source of strength from the environment itself. In designing the appearance of the building also still refers to the Traditional Balinese Architecture, namely the concept of Tri Angga which divides the building imaginatively into Legs, Bodies, and Heads. In its application, it is still combined with Modern Tropical Architecture to support more complex building functions.

Traditional Balinese Architecture: From Cosmic to Modern

Balinese architecture often considers aspects of climate and natural conditions as well as environmental social life. This is to obtain a balance in the cosmos, between human life (bhuana alit / microcosm) and its natural environment (bhuana agung /macrocosm). However, Bali's progress in tourism has changed the way of life of the people, which is in line with Parsons Theory of Structural Functionalism, that if there is a change in the function of one part of an institution or structure in a social system, it will affect other parts, eventually affecting the condition of the social system as a whole. The shift in perspectives has caused structural and functional changes in Balinese architecture. The building design or architecture that emerges today is no longer oriented towards cosmic factors but is oriented towards modern factors, developing in the interests of tourism, commercialization, and lifestyle. The change has had an impact on spatial planning, building orientation, architectural appearance, interior furnishings and local regulations in architecture. In order to prevent Balinese architecture from losing its authenticity in its original form, which is full of spiritual meaning and local Balinese traditions, it is necessary to have a guideline on the specifications of Balinese architectural design that combines elements of aesthetics, comfort, technology, and spirituality. Through this guideline, Balinese architecture can exist in modern times without losing its traditional values.

A Study of Balinese Traditional Houses through Lontar as a Guideline to Sustainable Design

Traditional houses usually reflect their surroundings. As they lived among natures, people of the past used resources they found around to build their houses, such as bamboo, reeds, and wood, which is now, remain as traditional housing. The material selections and construction techniques are based on the local environment, social structure, and economic circumstances. This living ways has been going on for a long time and proven to bring positive impacts on the surrounding environment. In Balinese architecture, the proper usage of these resources has been written in lontar manuscripts which are considered as guidelines in Balinese architectural and construction. This study used Lontar Asta Kosala-Kosali from the Geria Jlantik Baler which has been translated into Indonesian. The guidelines related to the basic concept, cosmology, material selections, and construction technique were studied using the interpretative criticism to find the deeper understanding in theory behind this guideline and explore the relation of the built environment and its inhabitant. Guidelines regarding basic concept and cosmology were proven to shows their strong relationship to human and nature which similar to the concept ‘ecological’ and ‘environment.’ The use of woods as the main material which was detailed in the guidelines shows an attempt to make the preservation of the rare and high-quality woods as well as building a durable house.

Functional Analysis of <I>Telajakan</I> Plants and Space in Northern Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia

Bali Island, Indonesia, is undergoing rapid land use changes owing to tourism-related development and urbanization. Consequently, urban green spaces, which provide a myriad of benefits to residents, are disappearing and deteriorating. Focusing on telajakan, a strip of traditional green space between the frontal wall of a housing compound and a ditch/pedestrian path in a roadside, the study aims: 1) to investigate and document the changes that are occurring with regards to telajakan in Denpasar, Bali and 2) to evaluate the functions of the plantings in telajakan. The research methods include literature review on traditional green spaces in Bali, vegetation survey at a lot scale, and homeowner interviews with the help of local experts. The study found that: 1) aesthetics, economics, and rituals are the top three functions provided by the telajakan plants with aesthetic function being by far the most provided function; 2) species diversity does not correspond with functional diversity; and 3) telajakan space itself is often minimized or sometimes lost completely for more inner, privatized space or for vehicle parking lot for shop owners. Since telajakan is an important component of traditional Balinese architecture, its loss, degradation, and marginalization necessarily lead to the loss of Balinese culture and identity. This study hints, however, a new form of social interaction through aesthetically-pleasing telajakan. Also, functional diversity, which is arguably as important as species diversity, can be maintained by carefully selecting indigenous species with multiple functions.
