<p class="Abstract"><em>Each region basically has a traditional house that has characteristics in accordance with the local wisdom of each region. Each traditional house will reflect the identity </em><em>that grows </em><em>in the area. The physical structure of the building of traditional houses in anthropology in different traditional societies will bring up building elements that are depicted in the form of ornaments as a symbol of meaning that has special meaning in the area. Symbolizing the building of a traditional society, the building elements have a special meaning that is recognized by the builders as an important element for building strength and stability. Research into the homes of a traditional society gives us some valuable views for the conception of housing. Likewise in the case study of a traditional house in Jangga Dolok</em><em> Village</em><em>, Lumbun Julu </em><em>District</em><em>, Toba Samosir Regency, North Sumatra Province.</em><em> M</em><em>ajority of the people are Batak people. Batak Traditional Houses have a major influence in the spatial planning of the area. Besides that, the symbolization of houses living in Batak people cannot be separated from the influence of socio-cultural life and all aspects manifested in the symbolization of Batak Traditional Houses which have special meaning</em><em>.</em><em></em></p>

In the realm of urban planning and design practice, understanding urban morphology can be the basis for the physical development of the built environment that is adaptive and transformative to the uncertain and rapid changes in urban areas. This study aims to identify the physical form that is expected to represent the character of the development of Indonesia’s urban areas in Yogyakarta as the ‘Inner City’ and Semarang as a ‘Coastal City’. The research used an NDBI map within two different timescales to identify the figure and ground of both case studies to generalize the urban tissue pattern. The initial results show that the two districts have a similar tendency to develop heterogeneously and dispersed with the predominant configuration of figures arranged through field blocks and open system urban fabric. However, the two districts also have differences that represent the physical characteristics of the inner city in the form of a low-density continuous development pattern and a coastal city in the form of a linear development pattern. The characters show the process of shifting from closed urban fabric to open-fragmented peri-urban fabric.

<p class="Abstract"><em>Penglipuran Traditional Village is a traditional settlement in Bali which has an attractive space pattern seen from the order of the spatial pattern that is typical of the cultural activities of its people. The village is located at a distance of 45 km from Denpasar and 5 km from the capital city of Bangli Regency. The aim of the study was to find out the concept of traditional patterns of space and houses applied in Penglipuran Village, as a basis for researching traditional Balinese architecture. This research was conducted with qualitative descriptive method and case study approach. Penglipuran Village as a settlement has a space pattern which is divided into 3 (three) spatial arrangements based on the Tri Mandala concept consisting of: 1) Main Mandala (Pura); 2) Madya Mandala (Residence); 3) Nista Mandala (Tomb). The condition of the Penglipuran Traditional Village as a traditional mountain village shows one thing that stands out, namely the spread of settlement patterns tend to be linear because they are in mountainous areas. Penglipuran Bali Traditional House is an order of cultural result of the cultural mindset of the ancestors of the Penglipuran community in organizing an area well and upholding ancestral customs and striving to maintain the order well, neatly organized concept and sustainable nature and the surrounding environment.</em></p><p class="Abstract"><em><br /></em></p>
