Abstract

Marginalization and slum are manifestation of the cities constant flux phenomenon and evidence that architectural is more than physical and permanent entities. They are typically associated with the densely populated slums and informal lifestyles that characterize urban areas. This project endeavors to “theorizing” the slum as novel agent of architecture transformation by placing their perspective (slum communities) to uncover a different side of dwelling, settlement and built environment (social, cultural, and economic). The aim of this architectural design project is to propose the new typology of vertical housing by examining those perspective. Starting with big ideas, the concept of architectural dwelling can be investigated by mapping the uncertainty of railroad slum community’s relationship with their environment. This investigation has been done by observating and mapping the system of settings, activities (domestic, social, culture, economy), architectural basic geometry and urban scenes of railroad slum to get the pattern. In this case, the research is focused on specific railroad slum dwelling located at Jl. Dupak Magersari, District Bubutan, Surabaya. The system of settings and activities patterns are the basis to determine the dwelling unit’s spatial organization, meanwhile the architectural geometry and urban scenes patterns determine the dwelling unit’s form and arrangement. The dwelling units then are constructed by considering modularity and prefabrication system. Modularity significantly impact in dwelling units vertical arrangement, building integration and materials. Although this design can be constructed on different site, it has a specific context that must be considered, which is the observation case study (railroad slum community) and site location. Rather than adapting the proposed project to different contexts, the project is very specific in determining how the dwellings are designed and arranged. This architectural design project can enrich the vertical housing typology and prove how slums are viewed from the perspective of complexity rather than uncertainty.

Marjinalisasi dan permukiman kumuh merupakan manifestasi dari fenomena perubahan kota yang terus menerus dan bukti bahwa arsitektur lebih dari sekadar entitas fisik dan permanen. Mereka biasanya dikaitkan dengan pemukiman kumuh yang padat dan gaya hidup informal yang menjadi ciri khas daerah perkotaan. Proyek ini berusaha untuk "berteori" mengenai permukiman kumuh sebagai agen kebaruan dalam transformasi arsitektur dengan menempatkan perspektif mereka (masyarakat kumuh) untuk mengungkap sisi lain dari hunian, permukiman, dan lingkungan binaan (sosial, budaya, dan ekonomi). Tujuan dari proyek desain arsitektur ini adalah untuk mengusulkan tipologi baru hunian vertikal dengan mengkaji perspektif tersebut. Berawal dari ide besar, konsep hunian arsitektural dapat diinvestigasi dengan memetakan ketidakpastian hubungan komunitas kumuh rel kereta api dengan lingkungannya. Investigasi ini dilakukan dengan mengamati dan memetakan sistem tatanan, aktivitas (domestik, sosial, budaya, ekonomi), geometri dasar arsitektural, dan pemandangan kota pada permukiman kumuh rel kereta api untuk mendapatkan polanya. Dalam hal ini, penelitian difokuskan pada hunian kumuh rel kereta api yang berlokasi di Jalan Dupak Magersari, Kecamatan Bubutan, Surabaya. System of setting dan pola kegiatan menjadi dasar untuk menentukan spatial organization unit hunian, sedangkan geometri arsitektur dan pola urban scenes menentukan bentuk dan susunan unit hunian. Unit-unit hunian kemudian dibangun dengan mempertimbangkan modularitas dan sistem prefabrikasi. Modularitas secara signifikan berdampak pada pengaturan vertikal unit hunian, integrasi bangunan dan material. Meskipun desain ini dapat dibangun di lokasi yang berbeda, desain ini memiliki konteks khusus yang harus dipertimbangkan, yaitu studi kasus observasi (komunitas kumuh di pinggiran rel kereta api) dan lokasi tapak. Daripada mengadaptasi proyek yang diusulkan ke konteks yang berbeda, proyek ini sangat spesifik dalam menentukan bagaimana tempat tinggal dirancang dan diatur. Proyek desain arsitektur ini dapat memperkaya tipologi hunian vertikal dan membuktikan bagaimana permukiman kumuh dilihat dari sudut pandang kompleksitas dan bukan ketidakpastian.
