The angkul-angkul of Penglipuran traditional village is related to the natural environment conditions that embrace the concept of Tri Hita Karana. The customs and social life of the society is connected to the concept of Desa Kala Patra which is oriented to Tri Mandala, Tri Angga, and Bhuanaanda and its social system is based on the concept of Tat Twam Asi. Angkul-angkul of Penglipuran traditional village reflects the mutual cooperation community as well as represents collective value and simplicity. It can be seen from the uniformity of the shape of angkul-angkul which shows no diversity in both the material and measurement.

    International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 13, Issue 5, 2020 Analysis of Symbolic Violence Practices in Balinese Vernacular Architecture: A case study in Bali, Indonesia Ngakan Ketut Acwin Dwijendraa, I Putu Gede Suyogab, aUdayana University, Bali, Indonesia, bSekolah Tinggi Desain Bali, Indonesia, Email: [email protected], [email protected] This study debates the vernacular architecture of Bali in the Middle Bali era, which was strongly influenced by social stratification discourse. The discourse of social stratification is a form of symbolic power in traditional societies. Through discourse, the power practices of the dominant group control the dominated, and such dominance is symbolic. Symbolic power will have an impact on symbolic violence in cultural practices, including the field of vernacular architecture. This study is a qualitative research with an interpretive descriptive method. The data collection is completed from literature, interviews, and field observations. The theory used is Pierre Bourdieu's Symbolic Violence Theory. The results of the study show that the practice of symbolic violence through discourse on social stratification has greatly influenced the formation or appearance of residential architecture during the last six centuries. This symbolic violence takes refuge behind tradition, the social, and politics. The forms of symbolic violence run through the mechanism of doxa, but also receive resistance symbolically through heterodoxa. Keywords: Balinese, Vernacular, Architecture, Symbolic, Violence. Introduction Symbolic violence is a term known in Pierre Bourdieu's thought, referring to the use of power over symbols for violence. Violence, in this context, is understood not in the sense of radical physical violence, for example being beaten, open war, or the like, but more persuasive.

  • Changing a Hindu Temple Into the Indrapuri Mosque in Aceh: the Beginning of Islamisation in Indonesia – a Vernacular Architectural Context
    This paper is part of the Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Islamic Heritage Architecture and Art (IHA 2016) www.witconferences.com Changing a Hindu temple into the Indrapuri Mosque in Aceh: the beginning of Islamisation in Indonesia – a vernacular architectural context Alfan1 , D. Beynon1 & F. Marcello2 1Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment, Deakin University, Australia 2Faculty of Health Arts and Design, Swinburne University, Australia Abstract This paper elucidates on the process of Islamisation in relation to vernacular architecture in Indonesia, from its beginning in Indonesia’s westernmost province of Aceh, analysing this process of Islamisation from two different perspectives. First, it reviews the human as the receiver of Islamic thought. Second, it discusses the importance of the building (mosque or Mushalla) as a human praying place that is influential in conducting Islamic thought and identity both politically and culturally. This paper provides evidence for the role of architecture in the process of Islamisation, by beginning with the functional shift of a Hindu temple located in Aceh and its conversion into the Indrapuri Mosque. The paper argues that the shape of the Indrapuri Mosque was critical to the process of Islamisation, being the compositional basis of several mosques in other areas of Indonesia as Islam developed. As a result, starting from Aceh but spreading throughout Indonesia, particularly to its Eastern parts, Indonesia’s vernacular architecture was developed by combining local identity with Islamic concepts. Keywords: mosque, vernacular architecture, human, Islamic identity, Islamisation.

  • Traditional Balinese Architecture: from Cosmic to Modern
    SHS Web of Conferences 76, 01047 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf/20207601047 ICSH 2019 Traditional Balinese Architecture: From Cosmic to Modern Ronald Hasudungan Irianto Sitinjak*, Laksmi Kusuma Wardani, and Poppy Firtatwentyna Nilasari Interior Design Department, Faculty of Art and Design, Petra Christian University, Siwalankerto 121–131, Surabaya 60236, Indonesia Abstract. Balinese architecture often considers aspects of climate and natural conditions as well as environmental social life. This is to obtain a balance in the cosmos, between human life (bhuana alit / microcosm) and its natural environment (bhuana agung /macrocosm). However, Bali's progress in tourism has changed the way of life of the people, which is in line with Parsons Theory of Structural Functionalism, that if there is a change in the function of one part of an institution or structure in a social system, it will affect other parts, eventually affecting the condition of the social system as a whole. The shift in perspectives has caused structural and functional changes in Balinese architecture. The building design or architecture that emerges today is no longer oriented towards cosmic factors but is oriented towards modern factors, developing in the interests of tourism, commercialization, and lifestyle. The change has had an impact on spatial planning, building orientation, architectural appearance, interior furnishings and local regulations in architecture. In order to prevent Balinese architecture from losing its authenticity in its original form, which is full of spiritual meaning and local Balinese traditions, it is necessary to have a guideline on the specifications of Balinese architectural design that combines elements of aesthetics, comfort, technology, and spirituality.

  • The Catuspatha Pattern in Balinese Palace: Architectural Conservation and Challenges
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Environmental Sciences 28 ( 2015 ) 538 – 548 The 5th Sustainable Future for Human Security (SustaiN 2014) The Catuspatha pattern in Balinese palace: architectural conservation and challenges Ni Made Yudantinia, David Jonesb* aPhD Student at School of Architecture & Built Environment, Deakin University bAssociate Head of School (Learning & Teaching) & Director –Planning & Landscape Architecture Program, School of Architecture & Built Environment, Deakin University Abstract Balinese architecture was established prior to European colonization and significantly enhances traditional Balinese values that are woven into the predominant Hindu religion. Palaces are integral to the architectural heritage of Bali and were dated back to the Majapahit Empire. Balinese palaces were constructed for non-ritualistic activities in this historical cultural landscape. Palaces were often located on road corners called catuspatha1 and they possess sacred values embodied in the concept of pempatan agung. Although Bali Province is today governed as one governance unit, these palaces still reflect their own multiple regal associations which are still respected by Balinese society. The representations and architecture of these palaces and the communicative symbols of a heyday era of Bali are raising questions as to how they can be accommodated within the over- arching tourism development and globalization of culture that Bali is experiencing. Therefore, this paper reviews pre-colonial Balinese palaces, their architecture, the catuspatha concept, and considers the traditional values of these ancient monuments as to conservation of palaces and their associated cultural heritage. An extensive literature review, surveys and observational inventories were undertaken at several palaces to obtain results that raise new questions about how these complexes can withstand globalization challenges whilst respecting traditional Balinese culture and society.
