Abstract:Urbanization patterns in rapidly growing cities are complex. Such patterns reflect historic policy outcomes, economic characteristics and changing lifestyles. This research examined urban growth in Yogyakarta City in Indonesia to understand its urban expansion process. Several attributes of urbanization were measured to understand the city's urbanization pattern. Land-use data for 1997, 2002, and 2013 were derived from remote-sensing data; in addition, other supporting data of urbanization were measured with several spatial metrics. Analysis was performed for the whole city and for transections across the city to understand macro and local scale characteristics of the urbanization process. Urban land-use changes between 2002 and 2013 were studied to understand the land-use conversion process. Thereafter, the measurements were analyzed to understand temporal and spatial characteristics of urbanization in Yogyakarta City. It was observed that the urban expansion process in Yogyakarta has several distinct stages. Essentially, in the periphery of the city, urbanization has been fragmented. Over time, these fragmented urban patches develop into stable and less complex shapes.

<em>Vastenburg Fortress is a fortress of Dutch army built within Sala village in 1832. As time goes on, the building stands by as 'silent witness' of every steps of social dynamics in Surakarta. Therefore, the fortress shows important potencies for society development in future. Based of the mapping of those existing potencies, the design potencies is to create a place that able to experimentally connect new significancy between future society development and all historical components within the site. Hence, the new function as urban museum does really fit in this category. To adapt with the new function as urban museum, using infill design as the main design approach is supported by several design methods; earth-sheltered architecture, sequence concept. Infill design is the main approach to integrate the old elements and the new elements within the site. Earth-sheltered architecture is the structural approach of the design that fits the site condition with its historical elements. Sequence concept is the basic concept of integrating the site with other heritage areas around it.</em>
