During the colonial era, the blocks used to be paddy fields.
Roads were paved for access.
After independence, plots of land were passed on to the workers and farmers, who built the first house there. Division of the plots of land.

FUTURE: TYPES OF GROWTH
OVERVIEW
PURPOSE
Most cities’ municipalities along with urban developers try to predict and organize the expansion of cities, hoping to be able to control it. However, sometimes small towns and villages in the outskirts of the expanding cities are negatively affected in this expansion process. As a consequence to that, these towns lose their identity, values and culture.
The rapid expansion of urbanized areas poses a significant and intricate planning challenge. Cities worldwide – particularly those in developing countries – are growing past their boundaries, rather than densifying within them. In order to plan for this imminent expansion it is necessary to device a framework for its development.
Solo City in Indonesia is a city expanding with the characteristics of the new trend of private - gatevd compounds. These compounds pose a threat to the identity, sense of community and even the existence of several villages located to the south of Solo.
The purpose of this study is to, based on the study of Waru village, create a general plan that can be easily applied to the areas undergoing similar situations near Solo city.
FUTURE PREDICTION
Rapidly densifying land plots due to rapid increase in population - loss of open spaces and farmland
PROPOSAL:
Network of local Amenities (schools, mosques, healthcare)
Relies on Solo for public services Built-up area Leftover space
The profile of uncontrolled development includes:
Rapidly densifying land plots due to rapid increase in population - loss of open spaces and farmland
Demand for infrastructure which would increase basic development patterns of the village.
lack of public open space
Lack of public open space
Public Street scapes + peripheral roads with public spaces and amenities
Cost and delays which may arise due to construction on such a large scale. Congestion as the result of uncontrolled growth
Farm development into private compounds leading to monotonous development
public spaces and amenities shared by adjacent villages along the peripheral road
Public streetscapes and peripheral roads with green open spaces
Moreover:
Greater demand for public services and public infrastructure
An interdependent kampung network - villages rely upon one another for amenities and supplies, no longer having to rely on Solo. t
Local Ameneties -schools -mosques -health care
Relies on Solo for public services
Demand for better connectivity and the development of the roads, and a natural flow betweem existing roads.

Future: gated developments fostering linear and monotonous circulation, social exclusion
Local industries unique to each village could be located along this eco-cultural tourism corridor, which connects the specialties of different villages.

In Waru Village, many batik workshops are located along the canal. After painting, dye waste in conveniently thrown into the canal. Adjacent far mlands could be developed to grow crops that help to filter the waste, allowing existing far mers to retain their far mlands as an integral par t of the Batik process. This whole process, besides being an eco-tour for students and tourists, can help innovate the far ming and batik industr y unique to Waru Village, and engage younger generations in this lost ar t of Indonesia.
