Transforming Fishermen's Settlements Towards Sustainable Coastal Areas Through an Ecological Architecture Approach A Case Study of Laluin Village
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background. The fishing settlement in Laluin Village, South Kayoa District, South Halmahera Regency, North Maluku, has above-water residential characteristics closely tied to the economic and social activities of coastal communities. However, limited sanitation, waste management, accessibility, and the vulnerability of coastal ecosystems require an integrated design approach.
Objectives. This article aims to formulate a model for designing fishermen's settlement facilities based on ecological architectural principles.
Methods. The method used is a design research with data collection through observation, interviews, literature studies, and documentation, followed by analysis of user activities, space needs, site characteristics, climate, circulation, buildings, and utilities.
Results. The design results are in the form of arrangement of public and semi-public zones, integration of fishery facilities and communal spaces, pier design that takes into account tides, utilization of mangrove vegetation, rainwater storage, wastewater and waste management, and lighting and natural ventilation strategies.
Conclusion. The contribution of the article lies in the integration of the productive needs of fishermen with the management of the coastal environment at the regional scale. The result is a conceptual design proposal; its ecological effectiveness has not been tested through post-construction measurements.
