Combination of Traditional Façade

This is traditional house from Java, Indonesia. We call as “Limasan” and Kampung”. This house has been repair with the facade. Long time ago this house used a wooden wall as the front view wall of the house, but that’s wall was broke, so the owner change the wall with brick structure and cladding with ceramic for finished. The owners follow the colonial design style, so the design becomes hybrids style that is combination of traditional house with colonial design. We can look the ornament inside the ceramics, their used flowers and vertical line. With vertical line for composition of façade, this house looks great and strong by follow the line structure from columns structure of the house. This house has two geometric of building concept. If we look the existing site from image, which is Limasan house in the left and “Kampung” House in right side. This house looks bigger with a long facade. I think this house needs more ornament or lighting and composition landscape. With all of that, this house becomes beautiful and looks ethnic. We can use the ornament like mailboxes, ponds, exterior chair in the garden and many more. But right know this house was empty, because has been left by the owner. Why this heritage building always left by peoples?, I think we need to discuss about traditional building or heritage building for have protection from government, because this is was the story of our life.
