Abstract
Based on Balinese culture and tradition to include the Balinese Hindu, there are 4 (four) Natah on the spatial
system of Balinese house as (1) Natah Merajan /Natar, (2) Natah Bale, (3) Natah Penunggun Karang and (4)
Natah Paon/Lebuh. Those natahs have their different own level and position depend on such activities as sacred
and profane which is conducted by the inhabitants. Those natahs located at the certain zones level based on the
principle of Sanga Mandala / Nawa Sanga. The system of spatial setting is the spatial arrangement of its elements
that contain a certain mutual relation in such that the activities can be conducted based on the time budget. The
goals of the research are: (1) to study about the level of various pattern of the layout out of natah as the variant
of spatial system of natah in Balinese house in Yogyakarta on the limited land, (2) to formulate the relation
among the variant of the spatial setting system in such that it can be seen the pattern of setting system of natah to
include the level of its probability based on the principle of Nawa Sanga. The observation and questionnaires
become the method of this research based on rationalistic paradigm while the matrix, overlay and scoring method
is used for the data analysis. The secondary data are obtained by collecting of the information from literatures
as the references. The field survey and interview in relation to the layout of natah in Balinese house in
Yogyakarta is conducted to obtain the primary data. The research result is directed (1) to explain the various
layout of natah as the pattern of setting system of natah in Balinese House on a Limited Land in Yogyakarta and
(2) to explain the level of defferensiation of the setting system of natah based on the principle of Nawa Sanga. It
is necessary to be formulated on the principle of Nawa Sanga since it constitutes the principle of the spatial
arrangement system of Balinese house based their culture, tradition, and believe in religion.

Abstract
Garden is a therapeutic space. Greens, the sound of running water and fresh outdoor environment are
elements of therapeutic in nature. Utilising healing or therapeutic garden is an added value to healthcare
premises. The awareness of positive impacts of therapeutic garden to the users especially on patients healing
process has been acknowledge in healthcare built environment space. This paper explores the garden provided by
the healthcare facilities and assesses the uses perception on the facilities and environment of the garden. It is an
attempt to understand the importance of therapeutic from the users point of view and its suitability in accordance
to their need. Observations on the garden healthcares and interviews with the users of the garden that consist of
staffs, patient relatives and patients are the primary methods in conducting the study. The findings reveal that the
primary points of concern by the users regarding the garden are pedestrian walkways and resting area. While
being in garden the users of the healthcare also experience the feeling of tranquillity, positive changes in mood
and a sense of privacy from the stressful interior healthcare environment. The elements of garden especially
accessibility and location in relation to the premises have also influenced the usage of the garden by the users.
This paper assists in foreseeing the therapeutic space in healthcare facilities for the next generation.

Abstract
Recently in general, the strategy to reduce traffic congestion has merely focused on the provision of
infrastructure and transportation modes without sufficient control toward the demand of transportation. The sites
of Tugu, Alun-alun, and MOG are parts of the city centre in Malang city embodying unique characteristics and
able to attract asignificant flow of movement. Traffic densities in the namely sties have resulted in many problems
in the city centre such as daily traffic jams, air pollution and noise pollution especially during peak hours.
Admittedly, an increasing number of motorcycles and cars in Malang city has not been adequately accommodated
with the contruction and improvement of infratructure in the past five years. It is therefore important for this
research is to examine the possibility of Transportation Demand Omotenashi (TDO) works in the city centre of
Malang. TDO is an application of the concept of Transportation Demand Management (TDM) with omotenashi
highlighting the uniqueness of the region based on three variables: hospitality, warmth, and familiarity. This
research used Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) to analize the satisfaction of public transport users toward
public transport services and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze the strategic priorities. The
results showed that the characteristic of the traffic, based on three variables: hospitality, warmth, and familiarity,
needs to be improved especially the design of street and pedestrian-way, street performance, the design of
on-street parking, and the satisfaction of public transport users to the public transport services. Furthermore, this
research suggested six strategic priorities which are the provision of parking management and carpool (21.70 per
cent), the improvement of public tranport services and the provision of public tranport lane (20.47 per cent), the
enforcement of law (20.45 per cent), the management of employee and student travels (17.13 per cent), the
improvement of pedestrian-ways and bike-ways (10.49 per cent), and finally the raising of the public awareness
(9.75 per cent).

3.3 Correlation analysis of the building change and


the road change
We understood the types of road area increase Fig.7. Chang of the building and road
through the correlation analysis of the change of build-
ing and the change of road. In addition, we showed its
process through the interview with the administrators
and the merchants (Figure 7&8). Type 1 was the
pattern led by the land owner and the building owner.
The land value increased after the announcement of the
restoration project and the redevelopment planning of
the surrounding commercial area in 2002. This pattern
occurred because the owner decided that the profit rate
would be higher when selling the stores by dividing into
a small size rather than one large building. As a result
of this, the road was created around the buildings.
Type 1 often appeared in A space. The reason of this
was that electric tool wholesalers, component fac-
tories, etc. were gathered in A space; here, one store
had 3~5pyeong of narrow space characteristic, and the

Dosen, Jurusan Teknik Arsitektur dan Perencanaan Fakultas Teknik UGM

Abstract
This researchs aims are to invent and to test several connector alternatives of a shelter in a shape of
modified icosahedron, in relation with the knock down system. Icosahedron is a regular polyhedra composed
of 20 identical equilateral triangular faces, 12 identical apexes, and 30 members equal in length. Basically, this
research is an experimental research investigating the performance of the connectors used for the shelter. The
method is generally divided into several steps: preliminary studies, the making of connectors and wood
members in a scale of 1:1, the assemblage of all components into real-size shelter, and post-tests. Analysis were
held by measuring the performances ofthe connectors with several determinated parameters. There are three
prototypes of connectors: (1) a pentagonal-shaped pyramidal connector plate with no flap, (2) a ring-shaped
connector plate with 5 flaps, and (3) a ring-shaped connector plate with 10 flaps. The researchs results are
that 1st connector has the best performances, and that there are some criteria for an ideal connector for the
icosahedron-shaped shelter: (1)in a simple and closed pentagonal form, (2) flexible in context of various types
and size of materials (3) easily to be assembled and disassembled, and (4) durable.

Keywords: connector, shelter, icosahedron, knock-down system

Abstract
This study investigated the level of spatial accessibility for people with disabilities (PwD) by using access
audit method. Workshops were carried out based on four (4) objectives, to impart knowledge and awareness on
the rights, needs and requirements for PwD user-friendly spaces, to impart knowledge on the principles of
Universal Design, to train target groups to conduct access audits of spaces and finally to conduct access audits.
Additional data was collected through plan analysis, observation, and interviews. Several public spaces were
chosen in Selangor as case studies. It was done in collaboration with Beautiful Gates Foundation for The
Disabled and Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ). The target group for the study comprised of technical
personnel from the local authority, professionals, PwD caretakers and the PwD. The workshops increased
knowledge and awareness among target groups on the importance of providing disabled-friendly spaces through
the application of the Malaysian Standards (MS) and guidelines of Universal Design. It found that PwDs
accessibility to spaces studied was poor and difficult to access. The results call for a strict implementation of the
principles of Universal Design in the built environment to allow accessibility for all.

PEDOMAN BAGI PENULIS

Deskripsi Jurnal Arsitektur dan Perencanaan (JAP)


Jurnal Arsitektur dan Perencanaan (JAP) diterbitkan pertama kali tahun 2004 oleh Jurusan Teknik Arsitektur dan
Perencanaan Fakultas Teknik Universitas Gadjah Mada. Sesuai dengan namanya, jurnal ini mempunyai misi
sebagai media pengembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi, khususnya dalam bidang arsitektur dan
perencanaan. Area tulisan dalam jurnal ini sangat luas, mulai dari teknologi bangunan, arsitektur, disain kota,
sampai perencanaan lingkungan kota, dan beberapa derivasinya. Cakupan penulisan mulai dari teori maupun
praktik yang ditulis dengan kaidah-kaidah penulisan ilmiah yang baik dan benar. JAP direncanakan terbit 2 kali
dalam setahun.

Kriteria Tulisan
JAP menerima dan menerbitkan tulisan ilmiah yang memenuhi persyaratan atau kriteria dengan tipe atau kualitas
sebagai berikut:
1. Tulisan mengandung materi asli yang bermanfaat bagi pengembangan ilmu di bidang arsitektur dan
perencanaan.
2. Tulisan memberi kerangka penelitian atau proyek yang ringkas, jelas dan pembahasan yang sesuai dengan
tujuan penulisannya.
3. Tulisan mengandung informasi dan referensi detail yang bisa diketahui pembaca, sehingga bila dikehendaki
pembaca akan mudah memverifikasi keakuratannya.
4. Tulisan bebas dari usaha komersial, kepentingan pribadi, atau pun politik, di samping tidak mengandung
unsur SARA.
5. Kontribusi lain berupa diskusi yang terkait dengan tulisan yang pernah dipublikasikan juga dimungkinkan
untuk diterbitkan, dengan memenuhi persyaratan yang berlaku.

Persiapan Tulisan
Tulisan seharusnya ditulis dan diatur dalam sebuah format atau gaya yang singkat, padat, jelas, serta mudah untuk
diikuti. Sebuah tulisan informatif dengan judul yang singkat, diawali oleh abstrak dan kata kunci yang
representatif. Sebuah latar belakang atau pengantar yang ditulis secara baik akan membantu mewujudkan tujuan
ini. Jika ditulis dalam Bahasa Indonesia, seharusnya menerapkan kaidah penulisan dalam Bahasa Indonesia yang
baik dan benar. Ditulis dengan bahasa yang sederhana, berstruktur kalimat singkat, dengan pemilihan istilah yang
tepat akan membantu mengkomunikasikan informasi yang ada dalam tulisan lebih efektif. Penyimpangan
pembahasan dari pokok yang seharusnya dituju sebaiknya dihindari. Tabel dan gambar seharusnya digunakan
untuk lebih membuat jelas tulisan. Pembaca seharusnya dipandu secara hati-hati, tetapi jelas, dalam memahami
keseluruhan tulisan. Penulis dituntut untuk selalu berpikir bagi kepentingan pembaca.

Tulisan diskusi atau tanggapan (discussion manuscript) juga harus mengikuti persyaratan aturan tulisan baku.
Tulisan jenis ini harus dikirimkan paling lambat 6 bulan setelah tulisan yang ditanggapi terbit.

Prosedur Review
Redaksi akan menyerahkan tulisan yang telah diterima kepada sidang redaksi untuk menentukan review bagi
tulisan yang telah diterima. Pada dasarnya setiap tulisan akan direview oleh seorang ahli (mitra bestari) yang
berkompeten di bidang yang menjadi fokus tulisan. Sistem yang dipakai adalah double blind proses, di mana
mitra bestari tidak akan mengetahui penulis, dan sebaliknya penulis juga tidak akan mengetahui nama mitra
bestari.

Berdasar hasil review pertama, Sidang Redaksi akan menentukan prosedur lanjutan dari sebuah tulisan, diterima
dengan perbaikan minor; diterima dengan perbaikan mayor, atau ditolak. Tulisan yang telah direview dan
memerlukan perbaikan, akan segera dikirim kepada penulis kontak yang tertera dalam tulisan. Selain substansi
tulisan yang diatur dalam proses review, Redaksi juga berhak meminta perbaikan teknis, sebelum tulisan
benar-benar diterbitkan. Waktu perbaikan harus memenuhi ketentuan seperti yang diberikan. Setelah proses
perbaikan selesai, dan tulisan dinyatakan siap terbit, maka penulis juga harus menyerahkan pernyataan pengalihan
hak cipta bagi distribusi tulisan kepada Redaksi JAP atau Penerbit. Semua tulisan yang masih dalam proses review,
menjadi tanggung jawab redaksi dan redaksi akan bertanggung jawab terhadap kerahasiaan isi tulisan. Semua
tulisan dan dokumen lain yang telah diserahkan kepada redaksi tidak akan dikembalikan.

Redaksi menghimbau bagi tulisan yang ditulis dengan bahasa Inggris dan penulis tidak sebagai penutur asli,
sebaiknya mencantumkan hasil review bahasa, sebelum diserahkan ke redaksi.

Biaya Penerbitan
Tidak dikenakan biaya pada tulisan maupun pembahasan yang diterbitkan. Namun demikian, perubahan format
dari standar penerbitan yang diminta oleh penulis, akan dibebankan pada penulis. Untuk semua kontak
penggandaan tulisan, silakan kontak alamat redaksi.

Hak Cipta
Penyerahan tulisan pada JAP ini mengimplikasikan bahwa tulisan yang diterbitkan harus orisinal, karya sendiri,
belum pernah atau tidak sedang dalam proses penerbitan di publikasi yang lain. Penulis akan diminta
menyerahkan surat keterangan bermaterai yang berisi penyerahan hak cipta (copyright) tulisan kepada penerbit,
dalam hal ini redaksi JAP. Hak cipta ini secara ekslusif akan meliputi hak untuk memproduksi, menterjemahkan,
atau mengambil sebagian/utuh tulisan (termasuk tabel, gambar, lampiran) untuk kepentingan pengembangan ilmu
pengetahuan. Jika ada pihak ketiga yang mengajukan izin untuk memproduksi atau menggandakan tulisan, maka
seharusnya Redaksi JAP yang dihubungi, kemudian Redaksi akan menghubungi penulis untuk meminta
persetujuannya. Penulis yang menginginkan mempublikasikan ilustrasi atau gambar dan akan digunakan dalam
tulisan, seharusnya memperoleh izin tertulis dari penerbit yang bersangkutan, termasuk memuatnya dalam
keterangan ucapan terima kasih (acknowledgement) dalam gambar yang digunakan. Izin tertulis hendaknya
disertakan dalam versi final tulisan sebelum diterbitkan.

maka persamaan dalam standar SI seharusnya ditulis dibelakangnya menggunakan tanda kurung.

Tabel dan gambar bisa ditata hanya menggunakan satu kolom (82mm) atau dua kolom sekaligus (170mm), sesuai
kebutuhan dan mengingat estetika perletakan. Cara penulisan tabel atau gambar adalah diurutkan dan
menggunakan angka arab, misalnya Tabel 1, Tabel 2, atau Gambar 1, Gambar 2, dan seterusnya. Isi tabel atau pun
detil gambar sebisa mungkin harus tetap terbaca dengan jelas. Untuk diharap memperhatikan kekontrasan
maupun resolusi gambar, sehingga memungkinkan perbesaran/perkecilan dengan baik. Untuk negatif gambar,
tidak akan diterima dan saat penerbitan izin dari penggunaan gambar (orang lain atau sumber asli) harus
disertakan.

Pada dasarnya JAP diterbitkan dalam format hitam-putih. Cetak warna dimungkinkan dengan biaya tambahan
dibebankan pada penulis. Sebaiknya hindari teknik gambar transparansi.

GUIDELINES FOR WRITERS

The Description on Journal of Architecture and Planning Studies (JAP)


Journal of Architecture and Planning Studies (JAP) was first published in 2004 by Department of Architecture and
Planning, Faculty of Engineering, Gadjah Mada University. As the name implies, this journal has a mission as a
medium for the development of science and technology, especially in architecture and planning studies. JAP has

Guidelines for Writing Format


The paper is written with word processing software (most recommended is MS Word, while Page Maker and other
software are not yet suggested). It is written in A4 size paper (210x297 cms), with top and bottom edge is 25 mms
and the margin (right and left) is 20 mms. The writing is formatted in 2 columns with its column width is 82 mms
and its inter-column width is 6 mms. Images, writings, and notes are placed and formatted into the text.

The paper written in Indonesian (with English abstract) or a whole paper is in English should use Times New
Roman font with 10,5 point. Wherever possible, please arrange the space in the writing area to accomodate 59
lines of sentences from top to bottom. Handwriting will automatically be rejected. The number of page is
calculated from the title page.

The length of submitted paper must comply with the provisions of the page limit allowed. A paper including
images, tables, references, and remained space are not allowed to exceed 8 pages.

The title page is the first page of the paper. The title page should contain title, author (could be individual or group
of authors), position, affiliation, and authors contact contained of name, positions, affiliation, complete address
with telephone number, fax, and email. The paper title is not permitted beyond 75 characters, including spaces
between titles.

The abstract and keywords/keyphrases are stated in the first page (the title page). The abstract is no more than 200
words and written in English. It must clearly describe the contents of writings, problem formulation, methods, and
the conclusion. Keywords should be selected carefully, so that readers can be easily understood.

The main writings are divided into several headings which reflect the order and its discussion, for example:
Introduction will describe the background, motivation, or the research aims; Methods will provide the necessary
information so that readers can understand and follow the discussion; Conclusion will wrap up the focus in clear
explanation and interpretation free.

The writing on references should use the Harvard System. References in text should be cited according to the
rules, for example Katz (1994) or (Jenks and Burgess, 2000) or if it is more than two people: Williams, et al.
(1998). References or bibliography should be arranged alphabetically in the end of text by displaying the author s
family name/surname first. If there is a reference written by the same person in the same year, it must be
distinguished by additional letters, such as 2000a or 2000b. Rules on writing references or bibliography should go
after example follows:

References from Books


Authors surname, Initial (year of publication), Title, Edition (if it is not the first edition), Publisher, Place
of publication
For example:
Ronald, A (2005), Nilai-Nilai Arsitektur Rumah Tradisional Jawa, Gadjah Mada University Press, Yogyakarta.

References from Journals


Authors surname, Initials (year of publication), Paper Title, Journal Title, Volume and number of journal,
Publisher, Page
For example:
Sarwadi, A; Tohiguchi, M; Hashimoto, S. (2001), A typological analysis of houses and people gathering places in
an urban riverside settlement. A Case Study in the Musi Urban Riverside Settlement, Palembang City, Sumatra,
Indonesia, Journal of Architecture, Planning, and Environmetal Engineering (Transactions of AIJ) No. 546,
207-214.

References from internet are used as little as possible. If it is used, the writing still follows the rules of referencing,
plus the last data accessed.

Footnote is still possible if the paper requires additional infornations, but it should be limited instead. Its format
should be adjusted too, by using superscript format at the end of the sentence which needs additional notes. The
description list is placed according to serial number at the end of the writing before bibliography, with a smaller
size text (9 points).

Any mathematical formulas and symbols are also possible to add by putting more attention to the correct formula
writing and putting the numbers or smaller signs correctly (either subscript or superscript). The International
Standard (SI) for measure should be used if it is required. If the measurement is not in the SI equation, thus it
should be written using parentheses behind.

Tables and images can be arranged using only one column (82 mms) or two columns at once (170 mms),
according to the needs and layout aesthetic. The format on putting tables or drawings are sorted by using Arabic
numbers, such as Table 1, Table 2, or Figure 1, Figure 2, and so on. The content of tables or detail images should
be clearly readable as good as possible. Please notice to the contrast or image resolution, so the magnification/
reduction can be well applied if it is needed. The negative image will not be accepted. The permission letter of
pictures using from others or original sources should be included when it is published.

Basically, JAP is published in black and white format. Color printing is possible with additional fees charged to
the author. Avoid transparency image technique.

In preparing paper, it is suggested to the authors to use the template format provided and can be downloaded at
