“…In particular, this study attempts to analyze the role of the two operations types, the tours and the maps, within a sequence of a wayfinding journey in a hospital building. Some studies in hospital and healthcare facilities have revealed the role of spatial configuration in hospital performance (Johanes & Atmodiwirjo, 2015;Sengke et al, 2020;Yatmo et al, 2018Yatmo et al, , 2021, including issues with wayfinding (Pati et al, 2015;Carpman et al, 2016;Johanes & Yatmo, 2018). This current study demonstrates how the movement of visitors can take place in a particular spatial configuration of a hospital.…”

This paper addresses the issue of wayfinding and human movement in a complex building. It focuses on the operations people perform to enable themselves to move from one place to another during the process of searching for a destination in a building. The wayfinding operations build upon the concept of tours and maps proposed by de Certeau (1984). This paper analyses how the tours and the maps operations were employed and distributed in a wayfinding journey within a building, with these operations enabling visitors to reach a certain destination in the building. The tours and maps operations were revealed by looking into the wayfinding narrative based on observations of participants executing wayfinding tasks. The results of the study indicate that the length of a wayfinding journey conforms to the number of operations performed. Both tours and maps operations had the same role in regulating the movements in the wayfinding journeys. While the tours operations regulated how people moved from place to place, the maps operations supported their movements by giving information from the surrounding environment. Understanding movement mechanisms by exploring operations in a wayfinding journey could contribute to the development of digital navigation systems for indoor wayfinding.

“…It is crucial to maintain air pressure (positive, negative, or alternating pressure) and air flow, as well as providing an anteroom and ventilation, either naturally, mechanically, or through hybrid measures (Atkinson et al, 2009;Yuen et al, 2012). Controlling the air pressure and air change rate would help the control of airflow within the room, hence reducing possible airborne infection (Yatmo et al, 2018). Notably, natural ventilation is the least costly, hybrid ventilation is the most suitable for variable weather conditions, and mechanical ventilation is the easiest way to achieve the desired air circulation standard despite also being the most expensive (Atkinson et al, 2009).…”

This paper presents a design proposal of an Isolation Recovery House (IRH), an adaptable modular isolation care unit specifically designed for patients with mild-to-moderate conditions as a response to an infectious disease outbreak. In particular, the study responds to the current COVID-19 pandemic, which urges the installation of isolation facilities as quickly as possible. The study offers a design solution that could expand the capacity for isolation facilities, especially in underdeveloped or developing countries, such as Indonesia, with many regions located further away from big cities. The design proposal assists existing hospitals in reducing excessive workload due to the surge in patients and control possible in-hospital transmission. The study began by investigating criteria for designing and constructing quickly-built isolation facilities that comply with the standards for isolation space, particularly COVID-19 patients. The criteria, namely quick construction, adaptability to various contexts, and meets the minimum isolation space design standards, formed the basis for proposing the IRH design. This paper argues that as a ready-toimplement design, IRH could be an option to improve health-care services during the pandemic.

“…The first important principle of layers' adaptation is that each layer does not adapt solely on its own but might interact or combine with another layer. For example, studies have demonstrated that the sanitary and ventilation systems are significant in distributing potentially contaminated droplets through the water and airflow of a dwelling (Banham, 1984;Yatmo et al, 2018). However, a dwelling's spatial layout also directs the potentially contaminated airflow .…”

This paper expands the theoretical understanding of building layers proposed by Brand (1995) by investigating changes in the domestic environment during the COVID-19 pandemic. Brand’s layer framework breaks a built environment into “shearing layers” to examine its adaptation processes. This paper argues that ways of managing the risk of virus transmission in the built environment redefine the understanding of these layers. This paper takes the perspective of interiority to address these layers as instruments with the spatial qualities required of a resilient domestic environment. The study unpacks the theory of Brand’s layer framework, proposing the principles by which layers adapt to protect the domestic environment during the COVID-19 pandemic. It then offers readings on the occurrence of change in the domestic environment in which such adaptation principles are performed. Such occurrences consist of intensifying layer changes to assist intense uses, merge between layers to assist movements, the construction of new layer forms, and reconfiguration of multiple layers for a prolonged change. Apart from redefining the very understanding of layers, this paper addresses how spatial change is not driven only by physical deterioration, but also by the performative creation of scenarios to protect the domestic environment during the pandemic.
