DipoMuria Commercial Center in Semarang, Indonesia by SHAU Indonesia

Monday, September 20th, 2021

Article source: SHAU Indonesia

DipoMuria commercial center in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia, hosts a photo studio, restaurant, café, and retail shop and is modelled after an urban village typology. On one hand this makes the design fit better into the low rise and small-scale residential neighborhood and on the other hand also gives the possibility to play with the volumes and provide more experienceable sequences of in-between spaces to explore and hang out. The volumes are grouped around a central courtyard, the heart of the ensemble which is connected to the outside but also to terraces on the second floor. The courtyard features a slide for kids to play but is also usable as backdrop for action and group photo shootings. The village-like massing is split horizontally through change in materiality and color having a more grounded plinth level containing all the outer stairs, materialized by rough plaster and a smoother and reflecting upper level in form of polycarbonate façade cladding.

A neighbourhood icon with multiple programs

The Microlibrary Warak Kayu is the fifth built project within the Microlibrary series – an initiative to increase reading interest by creating socially-performative multifunctional community spaces with environmentally-conscious design and materials, which aim to serve low-income neighbourhoods. Designed by SHAU and prefabricated by PT Kayu Lapis Indonesia, this project is a community, private sector and government collaboration – a gift from Arkatama Isvara Foundation to the City of Semarang. The microlibrary charges no entry fee and is run by Harvey Center – a locally-embedded charity group in Semarang – in coordination with the local government.

OAK TREE EMERALD in Semarang, Indonesia by PHL Architects

Friday, February 5th, 2016

Article source: PHL Architects

Oak Tree Emerald locates on a contour hills area with view facing directly to a valley and city. Because of its strategic location, it is suitable for a concept of resort hotel. The site has a steep hills contour with a very long and narrow L-shaped site. Thus, in order to meet the programme’s requirements, we must use cut and fill system to get extra spaces.
