Each areas placement is based on types of visitor and employee movement patterns. Main activities are placed at the centre of the site, Back-of-house is placed near parking lot towards the exit gate for easier waste management and more noise reduction. Lastly, the residence area is placed near water, surrounded by the lake for maximum vista.
The main building act as a border between the parking and hotel resort area. This area will be crowded compared to other buildings as it accomodate diverse activities from visitors and employees. It is also placed in the centre for easier access between each sub-areas.


All buildings are built on safe area, it does not interfere with the local plantation and animals.

Each area is well-connected and applying vernacular architecture is more suited to be familiar for the local community to also participate and blend with the local area as well

DETAIL - MAIN BUILDING
Utilizing sunlight by following the natural building orientation, especially in the main building which faces west and east in the office area to reduce the use of electrical lamp on daylight.
Making sure to incorporate non-renewable energy such as the sun exposure to reduce any excess energy that would done more harm than good to the environment.
Expanding wind and window opening to allow more light and breeze inside the building, this also applied to the hotel and resort villas.
The main idea on each building is to reduce as much man-made energy (electrical, heat, HVAC, etc.) in order to minimize carbon footprint that will always be made by users (tourist, employees) it is not possible to turn it into zero carbon foot-print, but it is an effort to help the environment.



Also optimizing green areas to increase rainwater volume (as the location is know for its high precipitation) to save more clean water in each building.

A different roof system that combines door and opening to ‘trap’ wind breeze and rainwater to be recycled and used again, using rainwater harvesting as the main system for dark-water recycling.
Lattice-like opening in each villa can be set as needed throughout the day with pivot system, allowing wind and sunlight inside the room accordingly.
Direct access from garden area or swimming pool in each villa
Staircase access for each villa and different rooms for ‘privacy’ and ‘individual’ experiences.
Elevation
Wood roof that also trap rainwater to be use for water recycling
Wood beam as main structure, also as part of the villa design to highlight the structure as villa’s building facade


Fin-like balcony to ‘trap’ wind breeze flow through each room when glass door that connects the outdoor and indoor area is opened, lowering chances of using air conditiong.


Hallway that connects each villa to another to help wind flow throughout the rooms without obstruction.

Project Type : Hospitality, Individual (University Project)
Location : Madukuro Raya Street, West Semarang, Central Java
Area : 4.680 sqm
Floor : 15 Floor (1-5 Shopping Mall, 10 Office floor)

Marina Office and Shopping Mall idea comes from a dire need of a facility that could become a catalyst of economy located in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia. Choosing the site location near Pantai Marina and Semarang’s Recreation centre to attract more visitors while also taking care of the environmentally friendly aspect part of the building.
This is a 2nd project collaboration with EDGE Certified Green Building. It explores the potential of using modern technology to reduce carbon footprint made by an everyday busy office and shopping mall that opens for 7 days.
Structure plays a pivotal part as it is not hidden but completely shown and combine together with enclosing wood membrane to show the building’s ‘nature’, as it helps the blending process with the surrounding areas.
L-shape massing is chosen as a respond to the site and space circulation
Utilizing building orientation for areas with highest activity frequency (such as work area, lobby, shopping area) to face eastwest back to back to decrease sun glare effects.
The use of ‘louvre’ like enclosing membrane that is adjusted to the building orientation to control against incoming light or glare through the window on specific areas.
Using continuous grid structure upwards and bearing-wall as the main structure for high-rise building reinforcement.


Podium is formed due to the division of the structural span that is used as a semi-rooftop and emergency exit and also to make use of view around Marina beach area.

This is a second collaboration with EDGE Green Building Certification Application. This is an attempt on different type of building, specifically mixed-use building (office and shopping mall) for a full green building design.
The building shape is based on the site and structure module itself. Not to be over-complicated, wanting to expose the column as a part of the building design that could also help to decrease design cost.



The fin-like shading is based on window-towall ratio and Annual Average Shading factor for width and length to avoid excessive use of shading as well especially since it is a mixed-use building which different sizes might occur.

Location : Pattimura Street, Central Semarang, Central Java
Area : 4.000 sqm
Floor : 10 Floor
Semarang as the capital city of Central Java Province has an immense role on the economy sector such as industrial, commerce, service and tourism. Semarang itself as an ever-developing city is in a need for a ‘rental office’ as a part of the Central Business District at the center of Semarang City that can be utilized for a diverse type of companies to increase the development of Semarang city. As the fifth largest metropolitan city in Indonesia, Semarang is constantly growing. Marked by the emergence of many large companies that have opened several brancges in the corners of Semarang. It is also important to remember the consequences of the surrounding environment in the construction of a high-rise buildings.
This is the first collaboration with EDGE, an innovation of IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, making it easier to design and certify resource-efficient and zero carbon buildings. In this project, basic emphasis on green building are applied to improve the quality of buildings in Semarang.
With the hope that those basic knowledge can be applied to other buildings in the distribution area of the city of Semarang to increase longevity and quality of life.

This is the first collaboration with EDGE Building Certified App in attempt to apply green building as its main concept to a mid-rise building, focusing on 5 aspect:

1. Building Orientation
2. Building Depth
3. Window-to-Wall ratio
4. Building shades

5. OPF and SPF
Main street is facing towards south as the building will also be
Rectangular base shape (building depth) while perimeter is use for vehicle circulation.
The ground floor will be L-shaped to be ‘point of interest’ and act as a drop off area as well as welcoming visitors.
Main building circulation is around the perimeter and surrounding the entire building area, it could also be for fire extinguisher circulation in case of emergency.
Building mass will continue upwards in a stacking form to enhance shading on each building floor and creates an irregular shape but also connected with the shape of the site
Building shading on each floor provides energy savings around 13.59%


The curving around each building stack act as shading that comes from four sides and also for the floor below it.
The use of low-e glass absorbs the sun’s heat while utilizing light that enters the room to reduce the use of lights during the day
Using wood panels horizontally with the help of AASF (Annual Average Shading Factor) to determine the width usage of wooden side fin so the light could still be effectively be use

Main Lobby
The skylight on the canopy act as natural light for visitors. The window-to-wall ratio on the first floor is bigger than other floor as it is also for drop-off area.
The use of recycled materials for the ceiling helps to remove carbon footprint from material use
South facing buildings help reduce excess energy use cause by the usage of lights and air conditioning.
The presence of infiltration wells helps reduce the use of excess clean water.
Gravel is used on waiting area to act as boundaries between the parking lot and building

Building Circulation
Vehicle circulation concurrently as fire extinguisher circulation around the building to be able to reach on higher building floors.
Rainwater harvesting also works as a form of recycling especially in flush toilet water to reduce clean water being wasted
Each west and east side is completely covered with Alumunium Composite Panel (to cover the bathroom area) while areas facing south and north are dedicated for office’s activities.
