This book provides empirical evidence on the behaviour and daily activities of Occupants in relation to their use of space, perceptions of physical environment, and efforts to cope with the physical architectural setting of low-income housing in Jakarta, Indonesia.
This book is supported with primary data taken from the study of residents living in five different unit types within four low-income housing complexes built in Central Jakarta by the National Urban Development Corporation of Indonesia (Perum Perumnas). Of particular interest for this, was the identification of resident's activities and behaviour in relation to various spaces within and outside of their units; the functional effectiveness of each space in respect to their expected architectural design use; and how well each space performed in terms of meeting the psychological, social and cultural needs and satisfaction of residents'.
What this book express is that the design strategies deployed for the selected housing complexes did not, to various and differing degree, adequately meet the residents needs in terms of daily activities of spatial use. This resulted in rooms being utilised in inappropriate and ineffective ways in terms of their functions, leading to dissatisfaction amongst residents, especially in the smaller sized units studied. The effect of this for residents was the enforced adoption of various coping strategies and modes of spatial adjustment to compensate for both the physical and behavioural limitations of their living space and extended areas within each housing complex.
