Strengthening the Definition of Green Architecture in Indonesia
One school of architecture that can maintain ecological integrity is green architecture. Placing a focus on environmental friendliness has made green architecture widely adopted in planning and designing the built environment in Indonesia. However, on the other hand, development that occurs in Indonesia tends to pay less attention to the environmental situation and future impacts. As a result, many problems that arise in life originate from the environment, such as natural disasters, waste of energy, and discomfort in housing due to low levels of spatial ergonomics. The aim of this research is to strengthen the definition of green architecture in Indonesia from various built environment projects that have been built in this country. This research uses a qualitative content analysis method with an inductive approach (inductive qualitative content analysis). Secondary data taken in this research was 38 (thirty eight) cases of green architecture throughout Indonesia to be used as an observation unit. The collection of secondary data was carried out using the literature study method. This research reveals that green architecture in Indonesia is a development concept to increase the value and function of land and buildings through sustainable actions to reduce the risk of natural disasters which can change human behavior in reducing the production of emissions and waste which is centered on the principles of saving energy, utilizing climate conditions. , the reaction responds to the building footprint, taking into account the user, pressing the use of new resources that are planned and designed holistically

Temperature Reduction Performance and Economic Value of Aluminum Mini Louvers
Increasing energy consumption for space cooling is a global issue. One of the solutions is passive design through the application of affordable shading elements in the building envelope. This study examines the effect on indoor temperature and the economic value of L-shaped mini louvers made of aluminum in Yogyakarta, Indonesia through an experiment. Wooden boxes were constructed for experiment, with one side facing west using glass. One box without shading was used for base case. The other three has mini-louvers shading, with the ratio of shading and gap among louvers of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3. Temperature data logger was put inside each model to record indoor temperature for a certain period. The experimental results show that the use of L-shaped aluminum mini louvers decreased the inside temperature of the experimental models. The average temperature can be reduced from 1.5 to 2.1 °C in comparison with the base case. These mini louvers can also reduce peak temperature during experiment period from 3.1 to 3.7 °C. Assessed from economic value of the construction cost, model D with the ratio of 1:3 was the best since it only required Rp. 14,658.00 to reduce 1°C of indoor temperature
Effectiveness of Spatial Connectivity in Public Library
Public libraries face challenges in creating comfortable spaces for their users. The library, as a public space, must be able to attract the attention of visitors in order to create an interactive relationship between visitors and the space. In this case, the main factor in the formation of social relations in space is the influence of spatial configuration. General spatial connectivity in libraries plays an important role in increasing its effectiveness and impact on space users by optimizing communication and social interaction between spaces.This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the spatial connectivity that occurs in library spaces. Depthmap software uses the Visibility Graph Analysis method to find spatial connectivity values and the Agent Base Simulation Tools Analysis method to understand the spatial environment, focusing on how agents or users interact with the environment or space. The research results show that the space with the highest connectivity and integration values is on the 2nd floor, while the clarity value at the highest point is on the 4th floor, which has quite strong accessibility because there is a corridor with a clear, regular, and linear pattern. Therefore, we can deduce that a space with good connectivity is one that maintains regular and linear accessibility, minimizing the distance between spaces and ensuring the shortest proximity between them, all governed by partitions such as walls or furniture acting as space dividers
Behavioral Changes in WFH Activities in the Bedroom and Family Room During the Pandemic
Telecommuting has long been practiced; however, the sudden, massive shift from working in the office to working from home (WFH) due to the Covid-19 pandemic has significantly influenced human behavior. The boundary between the working world and the rest environment has become blurred. Qualitative research was conducted to explore non-numeric data gathered through direct observation, analyzed based on theories derived from literature studies. The method employed was participant observation, with the author analyzing their own behavior in the context of remote learning during the pandemic. The increasingly unclear distinction between work and rest activities in a work-from-home setup can pose challenges if not managed effectively. This study reveals that preferences in selecting a workspace during home-based learning are influenced by personality traits, such as the ISTP personality type, which tends to seek spaces with optimal privacy and functional design. Additionally, past episodes of aggressive outbursts can impact the formation of emotional memory, leading to changes in workspace preferences and learning motivation
Analysis of the Role of the Algae Photosynthesis Facade System in the ITERA Building in Reducing Carbon Emissions
The surge in carbon emissions caused by buildings and vehicles or other aspects of controlling the carbon emissions produced by this is done by utilizing the photosynthetic function of plants. Plants that photosynthesize absorb carbon and release energy and oxygen, so the carbon dioxide emissions can calm down. Algae, which are aerial microorganisms that photosynthesize like plants, supported by technological advances applied in a building display, produce an algae bioreactor facade that has the potential to act as an intermediary to reduce carbon footprint. The Sumatra Institute of Technology is the object of research on the effectiveness of using an algae bioreactor facade in reducing the carbon footprint caused by vehicles passing on the Ryacudu Canal road. Buildings C and D of Institut Teknologi Sumatera were used as research samples and conclusions were drawn and it was concluded that the algae bioreactor facades in buildings C and D were less effective in absorbing carbon footprints due to vehicles passing on the Ryacudu Canal road, Way Hui, South Lampung
Environmental Feasibility Analysis of Physical Pedestrian Pathways Based on Standards and Perceptions in the Commercial Area of Bandar Lampung City
The current issue regarding environmental quality faced by the world is the increase in carbon emissions in 2021. To achieve the target of net-zero emissions by 2050, the government and relevant stakeholders have made efforts to reduce environmental pollution, which primarily originates from motor vehicles, including the promotion of public transportation. However, attention has not been fully given to the post-activity conditions of road improvements and the installation of gas/water pipelines, which have consequently degraded the performance of pedestrian pathways. This study analyzes the environmental feasibility assessment of physical pedestrian pathways and the components closely related to the desires and needs of pedestrians in the commercial areas of Bandar Lampung City. By processing feasibility analysis based on questionnaires distributed online, a feasibility rating scale was obtained for each component from five physical environmental parameters of pedestrian pathways in the commercial area case study. The first case study area, Jalan Teuku Umar, received the lowest score, with 81% of respondents rating it as very inadequate. The lowest performance score was 183 points out of 685 points, or 26.72% of 100% feasibility, particularly in the Accessibility for Disabled Persons component. Furthermore, the study analyzed the correlation between components and user desires/needs using Pearson correlation test. The test showed a two-tailed significance value of 0.045 with an r value of 0.998, indicating a very strong relationship with the characteristics of pedestrian pathway users. Additionally, the correlation test between walking frequency and pedestrian pathway components yielded a significance value of 0.000 and an r value of 1, indicating a perfect relationship between pedestrian frequency and weather conditions during hot weather on Jalan Raden Intan. This also serves as validation of the assessment with the assumption that frequent walkers in the case study locations would provide the most accurate responses

The Labuhanbatu Selatan city (KLS) is a newly expanded city established in 2008. The city is currently still in the development stage and has overcome the clearing of land for settlements, plantations, and government offices. Besides the infrastructure, the city also needs a public green open space that can balance the ecosystem and human needs. The city government office is an area that can be optimized as a city park. This study aims to create a design concept and design the landscape of the KLS government office. This research was conducted using a descriptive method through a field survey and questionnaires distribution, which was done in four stages: preparation stage, data collection, data processing (concept, analysis, and synthesis), and design. The results show that KLS landscape can be improved by adding trees, shrubs, lawns, retention ponds, plazas, and benches to conserve ecology and human amenity
Understanding the Potential of Implementing UI GreenMetric Standards in the Universitas Bandar Lampung Campus Area
Campus is an area that has the potential to cause significant environmental impacts from its water use, energy consumption, waste production, use of motorized vehicles, and excessive development of facilities. Therefore, a standard or assessment guide is needed to evaluate whether the development of the campus area is in accordance with the principles of sustainable development so that the resulting environmental impact can be reduced. The UI GreenMetric Standard was developed by the University of Indonesia in 2009 with the aim of assessing higher education institutions for greening and environmental sustainability efforts in their respective campuses. There are six categories in the UI GreenMetric standard, namely: Setting and Infrastructure (SI), Energy and Climate Change (EC), Waste (WS), Water (WR), Transportation (TR), and Education and Research (ED). In this study, Campus A and Campus B areas at the Universitas Bandar Lampung (UBL) were selected as the case study to understand in general the potential for implementing assessment categories in UI GreenMetric. It is known from the UI GreenMetric assessment experiment in the UBL campus area that the total score obtained was 3,035 points. The highest score of 690 points was obtained from the ED indicator, while the lowest score with 310 points was obtained from the WR indicator. The results of this study can be used as a reference for the implementation of the principles of sustainable development at UBL as a preparation for implementing the UI GreenMetric standard
