Nusa Penida is one of the islands in Klungkung Regency, Bali, which is currently growing rapidly. This can be seen from the increasing number of tourists every year. Based on the data of the number of people who visited Nusa Penida, it could be seen to have an increase in the need to provide adequate facilities of the port. Banjar Nyuh Port is one of the ports in Nusa Penida which currently needs to be redesigned in order to facilitate sea transportation activities. Re-design is a process of replanning a facility in an effort to improve the functions that are contained and create better conditions than before. The Redesign of the Banjar Nyuh Port aim to optimize the port function through solving the problems encountered using innovative thinking in redesigning. In the process of redesign based on a theme as the basis, the theme used must be in accordance with the context of the problems, location, culture and social of the local community so that the appropriate theme is to apply the Neo Vernacular Architecture theme to the design. The applica-tion of Neo Vernacular Theme can display the traditional impression of Balinese Architecture combined with the value of modern architecture so as to create a design that contains cultural traditions and design innovation in it. Index Terms— redesign, port, neo vernacular, nusa penida.

Ante la necesidad de contar con criterios de orden que otorguen identidad a la arquitectura, y ante la evidente identidad que posee la arquitectura vernácula, considerando la relación de aproximadamente 3600 años entre humano y entorno, inicia la búsqueda de los criterios de orden de esta arquitectura. Al comprobar que sus criterios provienen del lugar, resulta que la universalidad de la naturaleza está presente en su forma. Mediante el análisis de las similitudes entre la arquitectura vernácula y la arquitectura moderna, se identifica la universalidad de los criterios compartidos. Tanto la arquitectura moderna como la vernácula descubren la forma arquitectónica solo al final de un proceso riguroso, en el que la estrategia estructural es resuelta simultáneamente con el programa y las particularidades del lugar, mediante una serie de decisiones tomadas con autenticidad y solvencia, dan como resultado una forma arquitectónica coherente con el entorno natural y cultural, teniendo como protagonista al ser humano. En este sentido, partiendo de los resultados de la investigación, en la cual, se comprobó que el orden formal de la arquitectura vernácula depende de los factores constantes que el lugar posee, este artículo sintetiza los resultados encontrados para analizarlos desde las similitudes teóricas respecto a la relación entre arquitectura moderna y lugar presente en la obra de Mies van der Rohe. Una vez encontradas las similitudes más evidentes se procede a identificar la universalidad en sus estrategias, de esta manera se obtienen criterios de orden que al ser aplicados otorgan identidad a los proyectos arquitectónicos contemporáneos. Palabras clave: Arquitectura, vernáculo, forma, modernidad, lugar, entorno, identidad. AbstractGiven the need to have order principles that give identity to architecture, and faced with the evident identity that vernacular architecture has, considering the relationship of approximately 3600 years between humans and the environment, the search for order principles for this architecture begins. By confirming that its criteria come from the place, it turns out that the universality of nature is present in its form. Through the analysis of the similarities between vernacular architecture and modern architecture, the universality of the shared criteria is identified. Both, modern and vernacular architecture, discover the architectural form only at the end of a rigorous process, in which the structural strategy is resolved simultaneously with the program and the particularities of the site, through a series of decisions taken with authenticity and solvency, resulting in an architectural form consistent with the natural and cultural environment, with the human being as the protagonist. In this sense, starting from the results of the investigation, in which it was proved that the formal order of the vernacular architecture depends on the constant factors that the place has, this article synthesizes the results found and analyzes them by taking into account the theoretical similarities between modern architecture and the place present in Mies van der Rohe's work. Once the most evident similarities are found, the universality in their strategies is identified; in this way, order criteria are obtained, that when applied, give identity to contemporary architectural projects. Keywords: Architecture, vernacular, form, modernity, place, environment, identity.

While Le Corbusier's famous “journey to the east” has been the subject of numerous investigations as an important chapter in the great modernist's formative years, his days in Romania while en route to Constantinople are thinly covered. Le Corbusier and the Romanian Cula helps to fill that gap by focusing on one important detail: discovery of the identity and location of a much-discussed building he sketched while there and its importance for both traditional Romanian architecture and Le Corbusier's emerging vision of modernity. Judith Bing's discussion of her long search and unexpected discovery draws on firsthand knowledge of vernacular architecture in the Balkans, including Romania, and a long-standing interest in the early travels and subsequent modern architecture of Le Corbusier.

Abstract A government should have a coordination building as an instrument to do governance. In a regional government on district level, there is a coordination building which is called Regent’s Office (Kantor Bupati). Usually, it represents the district’s demography and geography. Neo-Vernacular architecture is a Post-Modern architecture concept that combines the local and modern architecture. The implementation of Neo-Vernacular concept in regent’s building on West Java has a purpose to keep, preserve, and become the symbol of the region and also gives uniqueness on the shape of today’s building without leaving the Sundanese culture. The methods that are used in this thesis are describing literature and findings, correlating object, and comparing the shape of 2 (two) objects which are Bandung regent’s office and Sumedang regent’s office’ in a form of a comparative study through Sundanese architecture context and also comparing the Sundanese architecture elements in few parts of building which becomes the object of the research. And on the last section, the result of the findings will be categorized according to Neo-Vernacular architecture principle.

The critique of ocularcentrism is commonplace in feminist theory but still requires additional deconstruction outside of Western philosophy. This paper takes that critique to Singapore and the domain of its modern architecture. Through an explanation of ocularcentrism and its impact on Singaporean architecture it is argued that the values of colonialism are visibly present despite the city-state’s official post-colonial status. This paper connects the critique of ocularcentrism across three categories of architecture in Singapore – the Housing Development Board (HDB) public housing, the central business district (CBD) and the vernacular architecture of Kampong Glam. It concludes by examining the options for resistance and alternatives for space and architecture presented by Singaporean architects, theorists and critics.

Abstract. This article seeks to analyse the methodology and principles underlying the interventions of the Portuguese architect and professor Fernando Távora (1923–2005) in the conservation and renovation of vernacular architecture in the north of Portugal. The publication of his essay O problema da Casa Portuguesa (1945), his attendance at the last CIAM meetings (1952–1959) and his participation in the Survey on Popular Architecture in Portugal (1956–1961) reaffirmed his belief in creating a modern architecture that respected the values of local traditions. The features of the so-called “third way” – building a bridge between tradition and modernity – are to be found not only in his ex novo works, but also in his conservation and renovation of rural constructions, such as the house of Quinta da Cavada in Briteiros (1989–90) and another house in Pardelhas (1993–99). Based on the evidence of these case studies, this paper will focus on the features of his particular modus operandi: a case-by-case approach, a deep knowledge of vernacular constructions, the recovery of traditional materials and techniques supported by the ancestral knowledge of local craftsmen, respect for the preexisting scale through the use of ‘anonymous design’ and ‘subtle modernity’, visible in such gestures as the colour treatment, furniture design, joinery, light fixtures, door handles or metalwork. Finally, the paper will also reflect on the importance of Távora’s teachings about interventions in vernacular architecture in Portugal, as well as on the future challenges for the preservation of this scattered heritage in the light of the current abandonment and depopulation of rural areas.
