Preface
PROFILE SUMMARY Dewobroto Adhiwignyo Architect and Urban Designer I am an architect and urban designer who has professionally been working and teaching on various challenges and scales of projects, from architecture to urban planning and development, both independently and in a team, since 2018. My research and design interests include architecture, urbanism, and human settlement studies within historical, cultural, and socio-behavioral perspectives. After graduating from Parahyangan Catholic University, Indonesia, with a B.Arch. (Hons) in architecture in 2014 and from Bandung Institute of Technology, Indonesia, with a B.A. (Hons) in interior design in 2015, I continued my studies at Brandenburgische Technische Universität, Germany (home university) and Cairo University, Egypt, and I graduated in 2017 with a M.Sc. in urban design – revitalization of historic city districts. My master’s thesis about the revitalization of the former Jewish Quarter in Vilnius, Lithuania, provides a proposal of urban design and heritage policies towards the development of the former Jewish Quarter that has been losing its historical and cultural significance since the end of World War II. In 2019, my team’s proposal, “Cakranusa Wanantara,” was selected into the top 25 finalists of the national planning and development competition of the new capital city of Indonesia (“Sayembara Gagasan Desain Ibu Kota Negara”). I have been a certified member of the Indonesian Institute of Architects (IAI) since 2019 and a certified member of the Indonesian Institute of Urban Designers (IARKI) since 2022. In 2022, I mentored a team of Pelita Harapan University architecture students to become the 1stplace winner at the national stage of “Architecture Student Competition” Saint-Gobain 2022, an annual international architecture student competition organized by Saint-Gobain and PT Cipta Mortar Utama (MU). The team represented Indonesia at the international competition stage in Warsaw, Poland. In the same year, I also acted as initiator, committee chief, curator, and brand & marketing strategist of “ArchUPH Wave 2022,” an annual architecture exhibition organized by the Department of Architecture, Pelita Harapan University. The exhibition has been regarded as one of Indonesia’s most well-recognized architecture student exhibitions. DEWOBROTO ADHIWIGNYO THE INTERDISCIPLINARIAN
I love exploring cities and experiencing various cultures, as it is part of my professional fields of expertise in architecture and urbanism, as well as my interests in human social behaviors and cultures. Furthermore, it enhances my ability to interact socially and professionally with people in a cosmopolitan and culturally diverse atmosphere. In addition to my experience of growing up in Southeast Asia (Indonesia), my experience of living and socializing in Western Europe (Germany), Eastern Europe (Lithuania), and the Middle East (Egypt) for two and a half years during my master’s studies brings me a unique understanding and open-minded approaches to diversity and inclusivity in architecture and urbanism, which broaden my horizon in embracing collaborative & holistic design thinking. Aside from my professional fields of expertise in architecture, urbanism, and human settlement studies, I have keen interests in anthropology, cinema, graphic design, history, philosophy, poetry, sociology, and visual arts. I have also been a “Member in Good Standing” (MiGS) of Mensa International / Mensa Indonesia since 2011.

MIXED-USE OFFICE & COMMERCIAL IN A HIGH-DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AREA DKI Jakarta, Indonesia Site Location Jln. Cipaku I No. 28, Kel. Petogongan, Kec. Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta – 12170 DKI Jakarta, Indonesia Date August 2-11, 2023 Phase/Status Visioning Proposal Category Individual Project Scale Medium Type Architecture Typology Office, Commercial, Mixed-Use, High-Rise Institution(s) ALIEN Design Consultant Client(s) Private Client
PROJ
Task Designing a high-rise building with office & commercial functions for a private client. The design must be contextual with the heritage context of Kebayoran Baru district, where the site is surrounded by low-rise houses from the 1950s and the 1960s. Description The task was given within just 10 days (8 work days) to be done and presented to the client. The aim is to create a visioning proposal that fulfill the client's needs in terms of optimation of GFA and FAR of the office building. The proposal's contents, consisting of the concept, site plan, floor plans, and 3D renderings, were made individually during the 8 work days period. Three main ideas & approaches are brought in this proposal: 1) being iconic in a simplistic & elegant way; 2) high efficiency, functionality, and durability; and 3) intriguing from the outside, aspiring from the inside. These ideas and approaches are considering the heritage context of the Kebayoran Baru district. Low-rise houses surround the site with pitched-roofs from the 1950s and the 1960s. "Being iconic in a simplistic & elegant way" means the building doesn't need to be 'screaming for attention' to be iconic and noticeable. "High efficiency, functionality, and durability" means the building considers easy-maintenance aspects and optimization of space using geometric shapes. "Intriguing from the outside, aspiring from the inside" means the design must be contextual with the heritage context of Kebayoran Baru district, as well as with the surrounding building typologies that are dominated by low-rise houses with pitched-roof ('jengki' houses) from the 1950s and the 1960s. The commercial facilities are oriented inward toward the site instead of the street. This 'inward orientation' aims to create a commercial space that does not generate a crowd on the street due to the formal character of the surrounding buildings.
"Not only sculpting the form, but also sculpting the space!"

PITCHED ROOF – URBAN TYPOLOGY OF KEBAYORAN BARU HERITAGE DISTRICT The pitched-roof of the ‘sky lounge’ is contextual with the urban typology of Kebayoran Baru heritage district that consists of many ‘jengki’ houses from the 1950s and the 1960s.
NG THE SPACE!
FINS FOR FILTERING THE DIRECT SUNLIGHT The main façade of the building that faces the east is designed with steel fins to reduce the heat from the sunlight.
CONTOURED LANDSCAPE The simplistic landscape design is contextual with the surrounding existing buildings, which are dominated by houses from the 1950s and the 1960s.
ACCENT ELEMENT A yellow ‘box’ as an accent element is given to the white facades of the building. The yellow box is located on the 9th and the 10th floors, functioned as rented offices for exclusive tenants. VERTICAL STACK PARKING Due to limited size of site area, vertical stack parking is used to fulfill the minimum amount of car parking units. VERTICAL ELEMENTS TO GAIN MONUMENTAL EFFECT The piched-roof of the ‘sky lounge’ is extended continuously as vertical elements on the façade to gain monumental effect from human-eye view perspective.

PROJ
Task Designing a high-rise building with office & commercial functions for PT Pupuk Indonesia Niaga. Description PT Pupuk Indonesia Niaga is one of Asia's largest fertilizer manufacturing companies. PT Pupuk Indonesia Niaga consists of a fertilizer and pesticide holding company, a chemical products holding company, a manufacturing support holding company, and a logistic and commercial holding company. There are three main ideas & approaches that are brought in this proposal: 1) bold & iconic landmark; 2) brand development & public engagement; and 3) hidden paradise & urban oasis. Inspired by the traditional "terasering" ricefield ("sawah") in Indonesia, the podium is separated into several rectangular modules that are connected by open terraces as circulation areas. This aims to optimize the natural air circulation and the natural lighting during the daylight. The rectangular modules of the podium are a metaphor for the ricefield module from Indonesia's agricultural tradition. The site itself is a bottleneck site where the main entrance is relatively small. Hence, there is no need to 'decorate' the building too much since it is not directly visible from the main street (Jln. Raya Pasar Minggu) from a human-eye perspective. The design also aims to optimize the green area of the site, both outside and inside the building, and both horizontally and vertically. Besides, it focuses on human interaction and user experience & user engagement among the employees and the customers of PT Pupuk Indonesia Niaga, as well as among the public.

NEO-ATAVISM IN HORIZONTAL MONUMENTALISM

PROJ
Task Designing a wellness retreat in the picturesque setting of the Alps that can incorporate different aspects of wellness under a single roof and create a therapeutic and immersive experience for the users through architecture. Description (Manifesto From the Competition Briefs) The fast pace of the 21st century has led to a distorted work-leisure balance among urban settlers. This has caused numerous lifestyle-related mental and physical issues like stress, depression, and other chronic ailments. This has shifted the focus on wellness and its importance in leading a happy and fulfilling life. We are becoming more aware that wellness is more than the absence of disease and is a careful and holistic balance of the mind, body, and spirit. The dialogue has been initiated, and we can see an upsurge in the wellness tourism sector as people demand a more accessible and wholesome experience. Wellness is a modern movement with ancient roots. The tenets of wellness can also be traced to the ancient civilizations of Greece, Rome, and Asia, whose historical traditions have indelibly influenced the modern wellness movement. Practices like yoga, meditation, ayurveda, traditional Chinese medicine, etc., all apply a holistic perspective to achieving health and well-being by cultivating harmony in one’s life. Ancient Greek physician Hippocrates is possibly the first physician to focus on preventing sickness instead of simply treating disease and also argued that ailment is a product of diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Designing for health and wellness is inherent to architecture. Great architecture is rooted in real-world outcomes that foster healthier spaces and environments.
“In this project, we put a stark contrast between the form & space of the hotel and the form & space of the spa. The form & space of the hotel are vertically stacked in a rigid way, while the form & space of the spa are horizontally scrambled in a rigidly-organic way; making the spa looks horizontal yet dominant, monumental yet intimate. The horizontally scrambled composition of rectangular masses in the spa is a rhythmical synthesis between organic-natural features of pine trees —existing surrounding elements— and rigid-artificial features of the hotel.”

Mindfulness
In our modern society, it is common to romanticize ‘atavism’ as a cultural tendency associated with a former time’s ways of thinking and acting. However, we can not ignore that concentrating on the present moment can be more meaningful than ruminating over the atavistic allures of the past. Human civilization is constantly evolving, and so does human understanding towards the modern movement of wellness and atavistic values of wellness’ ancient roots. Therefore, in redefining wellness, we find it essential to challenge the status quo of atavistic values by synthesizing it —instead of replacing it or replicating it— with modernistic values to create “mindful wellness.” In this project, we put a stark contrast between form & space of the hotel and form & space of the spa. The form & space of the hotel are vertically stacked in a rigid way, while the form & space of the spa are horizontally scrambled in a rigidly-organic way; making the spa looks horizontal yet dominant, monumental yet intimate. The horizontally scrambled composition of rectangular masses in the spa is a rhythmical synthesis between organic-natural features of pine trees —existing surrounding elements— and rigid-artificial features of the hotel. The form & space composition of the spa are rhythmically well-reconciled with the composition of the existing contour. It becomes part of the contour itself, delivering a ‘back to earth’ sense to the people’s unconscious mind. As a challenger of the status quo of atavistic values, our ‘state of the art’ within this design is that wellness can be much more meaningful and even bold when being redefined into “mindful wellness” through the synthesis of atavistic and modernistic values. Mindful wellness lets people find solitude through a mindful retreat in the present, between their past and future, between their inner and outer realms. The impact given to human’s psychological, physical, and spiritual aspects is also always a synthesis between a thesis and an antithesis: individualizing yet socializing, restricting yet freeing, blurring yet purifying, ordinary yet transcendental.
Mindfulness: “A mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique.” — Oxford English Dictionary

Proposed by Juhani Uolevi Pallasmaa in 1994, Architecture of the Seven Senses is manifested as a physical environment that allows the seven senses of the human body (visual, tactile/ touch, audial, olfactory/smell, taste, skeletal, and muscular) to naturally ‘engineer’ euphoric feeling through combined images and activities that stimulate a strong emotional response.

Timber as construction material stimulates visual and tactile sensations through its warm ambience, along with taste & olfactory sensations through a therapeutic scent of pinewood. The knocks of footsteps on wood as floor material and the sound of flowing water in the pools stimulate audial sensations. The use of ramp & stairs follows the principle of boundary in motion as proceptive & kinaesthetic architecture, stimulating skeletal and muscular sensations. Breathing Space: Light well along the segmented L-shaped circulation lanes in spa area allows people to experience the outdoors from the sunken (below ground level) space.
Synthesizing, Instead of Dychotomizing Inspired by Hegelian dialectic as comprising three dialectical stages of development: 1) a thesis, giving rise to its reaction; 2) an antithesis, which contradicts or negates the thesis; and 3) the tension between the two being resolved by means of a synthesis. In more simplistic terms, we can thus consider problem → reaction → solution. The formula thesis-antithesis-synthesis is applied in architectural manners through elements in-between contrasting thesis & antithesis of spatial elements (form, light, etc.).

Stimulating Seven Senses, Instead of Five Senses
Escaping Ego-Based Thoughts Rigid Form (Hotel & Reception) Mini-Garden in Each Indoor Bath: Each indoor bath that is located below the ground level has its own private mini-garden that serves as its ‘breathing’ void and light well.
Escaping ego-based thoughts is achieved through social support —synthesis between individualization and socialization— and through the integration of nature within the built-environment — synthesis between natural and artificial elements, as well as between old/existing and new elements.
Ritual serves as the connecting piece between the physical and psychological features — Boyer & Liénard, 2006. Rituals are typically chunked into units of segmented action, which then become sequenced, patterned, and repeated in fixed or bounded ways — Boyer & Liénard Nielbo & Sørensen, 2011, 2015. In this project, a sense of ritualistic movement is achieved through the repetition of segmented L-shaped circulation lanes in spa area.

Meditative Space: Reflective Psychological State of Mind Self-reflection meditation is a set of techniques that are intended to encourage a heightened state of focused attention that provides us insight into our thoughts and aspirations on the unconscious level. In this project, the rectangular-shaped timber structures in front of the rest spaces give a sense of focused attention due to their framing effect onto the perspective of human’s eyesight towards lake view, which is the metaphor of human’s mindsight towards reality. Not Only Stimulative, but Also Manipulative Wellness retreat facility needs to be manipulative (in a positive way) because being merely stimulative is not enough. Beyond spatial stimulants, humans also need spatial manipulants that trigger and control certain behaviors through direct or subliminal interference. 35

(Sinarmas Land) Task Designing a prototype of private houses for a mass landed-housing (cluster house) project initiated by PT Bumi Serpong Damai Tbk. (Sinarmas Land), a renowned Indonesian real estate & property developer. Description Apart from its social, economic, and environmental dilemmas & agonies at the urban level, when we talk about mass landed-housing, this particular issue always takes place: “The degradation of architectural values due to massive replication and massive repetition of architectural products.” Compared to custom-landed houses that can be proud of their sense of identity and uniqueness, mass landed-houses are less likely to possess values of individual identity and uniqueness of physical and visual-spatial aspects. Therefore, mass landed-houses always require more than just aesthetically pleasing facades as well as aesthetically pleasing space and form compositions. Within a relatively small 72 m² (6 m × 12 m) plot size, Ruangsisip House as mass landed-houses must be gaining things that are less likely to be achieved by custom landed-houses; not just in an innovative way but also in a revolutionary way. As a product of mass landed-houses, both indoor and outdoor spaces of Ruangsisip House are perceived as “spaces in motion” that are lucid, dynamic, and kinetic in progressive ways rather than perceived merely as “spaces in stilllife composition” that are exotic but static in conventional ways The principle of space in motion progressively results in inclusive spaces that are not only generally compatible for various types of activities but also specifically convertible in a modest and simplistic way to maximize the utilization of limited spaces for different types of activities. Every room in this house serves at least two functions: the living/dining area serves both leisure and dining activities; the library & study serves both working/studying and leisure activities; and each bedroom serves sleeping, leisure, and working/studying activities.
― Stanley Kubrick, 1965
DEWOBROTO ADHIWIGNYO THE INTERDISCIPLINARIAN
In terms of mass landed-house design, where its scope of users is broad, general, and unspecific, my approach and philosophy of space in this design are focused more on people’s direct experience over abstraction of space, as not so many people can emotionally react to and interact with spaces at the abstract level.
Ruangsisip House: Lucid Spaces in Motion | South Tangerang, Indonesia
“People react primarily to direct experience and not to abstractions. It is very rare to find anyone who can become emotionally involved with an abstraction.”

A Disclaimer: Problems with the Gated Community of Mass Landed-Housing When I was a kid, I grew up in a gated community of mass landed-housing in the city of Bekasi, one of the satellite cities of Jakarta, located in the eastern part of the Jakarta metropolitan area. However, since I started studying architecture and urbanism in 2010, I have never been interested in this kind of ‘American Dream’ typical of urban planning & design. Since then, I have been given to understand and become fully aware that a gated community of mass landed-housing segregates its residents from the ‘real world’ outside the gated housing territory. In a deeper sense of housing, settlement, and urban studies, the gated community of mass landed-housing is also considered to be socially, economically, and environmentally unsustainable and inefficient. For instance, instead of taking a walk or cycling, people who live inside a gated community of mass landed-housing need to take rides with their private automobiles or their private motorcycles for relatively long-distance commuting just for the sake of reaching the commercial area (shophouses/“ruko” or shopping centers area) that is located near arterial roads at the periphery of their gated housing territory. The same habit of commuting is also applied when people need to get out of their gated housing territory for work and school, where they are always dependent on the use of private automobiles and private motorcycles due to the long-distance commuting and the unavailability of public transport within the neighborhood of their gated housing territory. In fact, more automobiles and motorcycles, longer commuting distances, and less accessibility (due to the restricted gateway system) lead to more air pollution, more traffic jams, more wasted time, more wasted money, and fewer people-friendly streets & public spaces. In many developed countries, such as Western European countries, the approach of gated community-minded urban planning & design of mass landed-housing is already being classified as obsolete. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, this approach is still being eminently promoted and glorified by many lessvisionary urban planners & designers and profit-hungry real estate & property developers. It is also still pathetically loved and preferred by many people in Indonesia, including those living in urban areas. Many people may argue that the approach of gated community-minded urban planning & design of mass landedhousing is a matter of safety issues due to higher crime rates in the cities in developing countries and ―with a hipsterish pragmatic argument― that it is eventually a matter of market demands. However, from advanced urban planning & design perspectives, establishing a gated community of mass landedhousing to fulfill the market demands doesn’t solve the safety issues at the basic & holistic levels in the first place.
