Purpose: The community-based tourism concept needs to be understood deeply. We need to know and predict the opportunities and challenges that exist and will occur in the future in developing the community and tourism as a mutualism. This research analyzed the theories to describe it and derive conclusions for the basic concepts of community-based tourism as well as further explore the cases of applying these concepts to gain opportunities and challenges from community-based tourism Research methodology: This study is a conceptual article using the literature review method Results: This study elaborates the concepts, opportunities and challenges of the community-based tourism paradigm. Limitations: This study is a secondary data-based analysis (literature review) on the concept of community-based tourism in the social and cultural context of the community, as well as the opportunities and challenges of its application to tourism development Contribution: This study provides an in-depth and comprehensive view of community-based tourism to assist in exploring approaches and theories in community-based tourism research and planning and policymaking in the tourism sector, especially in the local community aspect.

Rumah Sasadu terletak di wilayah gempa IV (gempa sedang), yaitu pulau Halmahera Barat Maluku Utara. Penelitian ini akan mengkaji sejauh mana tektonika rumah Sasadu sebagai struktur konstruksi yang membuat rumah Sasadu dapat bertahan di wilayah rawan gempa. Fokus amatan pada sistem kinerja struktur konstruksi mulai dari pondasi, kolom, balok dan atap sebagai objek penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif-deskriptif-Rasionalistik yakni berusaha menguraikan dan mendeskripsikan fakta-fakta yang akan menjadi temuan, kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan Teori Prinsip Dasar Bangunan 4S1D yaitu stability, safety, strenght, sinergy dan durability.Kesimpulan penelitian, berkaitan dengan pengaruh gempa terhadap penentuan sistem struktur, penampilan dan bentuk arsitektur, rumah Sasadu mempunyai kecenderungan ke arah saling berhubungan, baik dari detail elemen struktur, konfigurasi denah maupun proporsi bangunannya. Kesesuaian rumah Sasadu antara kebutuhan tempat tinggal yang aman dari gempa bumi (secara struktur) dengan tampilan bangunan yang selaras dengan budayanya (arsitektur) dapat dilihat pada detail struktur dan penampilan bangunan.

Sudimoro Village is one of the villages that suffered from the eruption of Mount Merapi in October 2010. Over time, Sudimoro has become a potential space to learn about disaster mitigation and about the use of bamboo as a sustainable building material. Geographically, Sudimoro is surrounded by many developing tourist destinations, in the west there are Elo Progo River Rafting and Mendut Temple, on the east side there is Gunungpring Cemetery. This village has the potential as a strategic Hybrid Space to connect all tourist points as tourist magnets, to support urban development. After 10 years, the temporary bamboo shelter in Sudimoro village began to be gradually developed by residents into a tourist village. Apart from preserving the historical value of the Bamboo Shelter and increasing the socio-cultural and local ecological values, the use of bamboo buildings is also a strategy for the sustainability of the Bamboo Shelter's existence. In this paper, the author aims to make a comparison of the position of Sudimoro village compared to other tourist villages, as well as an assessment of Sudimoro's potential to become an urban tourism development area with the Hybrid Space approach.

This paper presents creative geometry research focusing on computational design exploration to improve the eco-performance of concrete blocks used as a building material. To provide a positive ecoperformance, an optimized concrete block was designed to be more efficient than a conventional concrete block with respect to the materials used and the space occupied during storage and transport. The results prove that the form is cost-effective and that the environmental impact caused by associated production and distribution processes would be comparatively reduced. Computational research based on parametric design thinking enabled the relationship between form properties as selected design parameters to be evaluated, with the aim of ensuring that efficiency does not compromise technical requirements and that the overall functional role of the concrete block is appropriate when used as a constituent material in nonstructural wall construction. Volumetric-based measurements were employed using Rhinoceros modeling software with a Grasshopper plug-in to assess the eco-performance of the concrete block based on selected indicators. The results show that the folded S-shape concrete block with a width of 40 mm consumes only 43% of the main material and 14% of the auxiliary material relative to a conventional concrete block with a width of 100 mm. When arranged horizontally, a standard container can hold 60% more of the optimized concrete block units compared to conventional ones. Additional findings were also made that suggest future research potential, including use of the concrete blocks as building elements in passive design strategies.

Perkembangan kepariwisataan di kawasan Borobudur meningkat, sejak ditetapkannya Candi Borobudur menjadi situs warisan budaya UNESCO pada tahun 1991, hal ini memberikan dampak pada kawasan permukiman di sekitarnya. Kegiatan pariwisata di sekitar candi berdampak pada permukiman yang berubah menjadi kawasan wisata pedesaan, mendorong respon hunian yang mampu berperan sebagai akomodasi dan fasilitas wisata atau sebagai Usaha Berbasis Rumah Tangga (Home Based Enterprise). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat perubahan yang terjadi pada hunian di Desa Borobudur yang diakibatkan karena perkembangan permukiman menjadi kawasan pariwisata, baik dari tatanan fisik, teritorial dan kultural. Penelitian ini mengunakan metode kualitatif studi kasus, dengan pendekatan transformasi dari Habraken. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah penjabaran tentang perubahan yang terjadi pada hunian di Desa Borobudur, terutama yang dipengaruhi oleh kegiatan pariwisata. Penelitian ini diharapkan memberikan manfaat pada dasar kebijakan, strategi, dan program dalam pengembangan pariwisata di Desa Borobudur, untuk menjaga kelestarian budaya lokal setempat.
