Batavia, now Jakarta, has significantly influenced both regional and global history, particularly in trade since ancient times. While many architectural remnants of its rich civilization have been lost, some still stand, reflecting the city's historical evolution. Following World War II, Jakarta entered an era of independence and witnessed the reign of various ruling states, including the Sunda Kelapa Kingdom and Banten Sultanate, as well as serving as the headquarters for the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) and later the Dutch East Indies and Japanese occupiers. The urban fabric of Jakarta, with its historical buildings, acts as a medium for expressing and reflecting its past. By interpreting this history, a sophisticated vision for the city can be developed. This paper discusses the physical and architectural characteristics of Jakarta's historical relics, proposing their use as a foundation for an open-air museum or laboratory dedicated to the city's architectural history. This initiative represents a crucial step towards realizing Jakarta's vision as a global city, a status it achieved in 2008.
This publication addresses the need for studies on Surakarta, focusing on the city's authentic elements, cultural issues, and urban history, including instances of vandalism against historical buildings. The Solonese community is increasingly recognizing the importance of preserving their architectural heritage. Recent urban development prioritizing economic factors over heritage has raised concerns among historians, students, and researchers who value the city’s history. Many historical relics are in deteriorating condition, and students and researchers find it challenging to access their study subjects, while residents lament the loss of their city's charm and tourist attractions. To enhance understanding of Surakarta, a collaborative team from ASM, Undagi Laboratory, URDC, Sebelas Maret University Surakarta, Alumni UNS in Europe, and KPCBN is working on a book project featuring students’ research papers on the city's heritage. The book covers four main topics: Cultural Issues, Authenticity, Urban History, and Vandalism of Heritage. It raises questions about the relevance of cultural issues, the urban condition, the authenticity of city elements, and the destruction of heritage landmarks. The publication includes field studies conducted by Sebelas Maret University students, who made observations in situ to better understand the current state of the city’s architectural heritage.
Reflections on the architectural world often provoke intriguing questions during a first visit to a city, leading to the rediscovery of fundamental values through the experience of architecture and the unique genius of each place. This work records an architectural journey through countries known for their historical architecture, such as Austria, the Netherlands, Germany, and Japan. Unlike typical architectural writings, the author shares personal experiences with notable architectural objects and cities. The author explores various topics, including cities, architecture, architects, and the distinctiveness of their works, influences, and historical styles. Photographs of architectural works are presented in a unique way that critiques both the structures and the cities. The author employs methods used by architectural historians, including the "architectural pilgrimage method," to document observations made during city-to-city expeditions. Through in situ research, which encompasses the experience of space, time, dimensions, and distances, a distinctive spirit is infused into these writings. This work aims to inspire young architectural historians to engage more actively in the discussion of architectural history and criticism globally.
