Vernacularized Modern AMPLIFICATION OF TYPOLOGY BEHAVIOURS HANDBOOK
Introduction
E01
Vernacular is an identity determined by the unique behaviours. Containing an identity within its true form could result in losing the identity itself. To sustain an identity, the behaviour should be extracted and reinterpreted towards the present and future context. The change should be embraced for it to survive.
E02
E03
E04
On the other hand, contemporary behaviour should not disconnect itself from history and its context. Instead, it should connect and co-exist with the past and present in order to outlast obsolescence. The future perhaps is a mediation between the past and present.

The experiment of reinterpreting the behaviour of typologies involves disruption, displacement, and dispersion of selected typologies which aims to amplify the qualities and behaviour of the typology. This process uses information obtained from outside of architecture which is translated into movement, rotation and scaling data. These data are used to disrupt, displace and disperse the behaviour of the vernacular. This booklet is prepared to communicate 12 key researches and experiments which contributed towards revealing the vision of the major project.

The outcome generates a slightly disrupted formal and programmatic arrangement of the typology. This experiment is unsuccessful due to the small scale of the typology and the insufficient ammount of disruption.

Experiment 03 is another attempt of amplifying the behaviour of the Betawi house of Experiment 01. In this experiment the typology is arranged in a village format prior to the commencement of the amplification process.This experiment extracts the program of the Betawi house and amplifies those qualities using movement and scaling data translated from the statistics of villagers displacement due to flooding in Jakarta, with an addition of rotation aspect to the process. The outcome generates a displaced programmatic arrangement of the typology. This experiment has a medium success criteria. It manages to sufficiently displace the programs of the Betawi house however the disruption within the program is inadequate to generate a new typology.

Experiment 04 explores the potential of fusing two experiments together. It aims to increase the density and multiply the opportunity of program merging. Experiment 02 represents the spatial arrangement of a shopping mall and experiment 03 represents the programmatic hierarchy of a vernacular house. Both exeriments are merged together by overlaying experiment 03 onto experiment 02.

The outcome is an overlay of vernacular programmatic hierarchy which is infused into shopping mall program. This experiment successfully increases the density of the plan however it does not envision the aim of the research.

E07 Experiment 07 re-investigates the formal behaviour of Betawi house. In this experiment the overall form of the house is multiplied into a grid formation to improve the density in the outcome. The grid is then amplified using movement, scaling and rotation data translated from an earthquake seismograph. Behaviour

The outcome generates a series of displaced forms with few merged and intensified conditions. This experiment has successfully produced merged formal qualities of the Betawi house, however the intensity of the disruption is too low which causes the overall form of the original typology to be recognized within the outcome.

Experiment 08 investigates the behaviour of a vernacular village in Indonesia called Bena Village. This specific type is chosen due to its formal behaviour and spatial arrangements. This experiment extracts the formal and program of Bena Village and amplifies those qualities using movement, scaling and rotation data translated from the an earthquake seismograph. The outcome generates a dispersed formal and programmatic arrangement of the typology. This experiment successfully disperses the communal areas from the original typology however it fails to disrupt the formal qualities.

Experiment 11 is a second iteration of experiment 08. In this experiment the process of amplification is applied to the formal and programmatic behaviour individually. The aim is to increase the intensity in the outcome. The system uses the movement, scaling, and rotation data translated from the earthquake seismograph. The outcome successfully increases the intensity of the disruption, however it still retains the overall form of the vernacular houses and it lacks the merging between forms.

Conclusion By doing these experiments, progressively, the vision of the project is formed. The experiment reveals both unsuccessful and successful ideas. Among all the experiments, experiment 12 is the most successful attempt in extracting and amplifying the behaviour of a typology. Highly intensified programmatic arrangement in the outcome enables the opportunity of mediating different elements through clashes. In addition, the clash also happens beyond programmatically, clashing and merging behaviour is also evident through the architecture. This reveals the idea of mediation through clashes and intensified moments, which becomes the grounding of the major project.
