History is the circumstances and events of human life in the past including previous achievements that are disclosed again. The glory, advancement, and fame of a certain nation, state, tribe or community group are often retold to educate, remember, and generate a positive spirit to build the future through various ways with various points of view in accordance with their respective fields of knowledge and passion.Jaza Chehata Hadi, in designing the interior of the Port, seeks to bring back the old Semarang atmosphere with the concept of Venice van Java, the nickname of Semarang city – Central Java Indonesia, years ago, due to many rivers in the middle of the city just like the city of Venice (Italy). The icons, documentation and knick-knacks of the past are presented to bring out the old Semarang atmosphere.The second article is Mahdi Nurcahyo's article, revealing how people with visual impairment or blindness recognize and present some aspects of convenience in the house where he lives in, as a part of giving meaning to everyday life through his sense of experience and sensitivity to arrange space according to his body's comfort. The third article by Muhammad Fadilah Fatah and his friends concerns on the design of a chair as a sitting facility which combines functions of bag, charger, as well as table by utilizing waste as its raw material to reduce environmental pollution.The existence of batik for Indonesian people is as the nation's ancestral cultural heritage. Batik covers various aspects such like philosophy, techniques or production, community economy, batik motifs, coloring, identity and other aspects. In the Edition XI, No. 2 of Pendhapa: Journal of Interior Design, Art and Culture, there are three articles related to batik. Two articles contain the results of some designs of the infrastructure facilities for the interiors to protect and develop batik. The revitalization of a noble's residence that had been neglected into a batik shop and museum in Laweyan village, Surakarta, Central Java, Indonesia, is the article of Yosafat Adi Pradipta and Raden Ersnathan Budi Prasetyo. Another article about batik is the interior design of Omah Batik in Bayat, Klaten, Central Java, Indonesia as a means of protecting and developing batik, by Annisa Isma Safitri and Joko Budiwiyanto. The last article is batik motifs as a design idea for hotel design, written by Wahyu Tri Widiyanto and Putri Sekar Hapsari.History stores a lot of knowledge, philosophy, science, wisdom, and many other things. The time span of batik work that has been going on for generations has become a part of the history of the cultural journey of the people, especially in Java. The preservation and development is a shared responsibility. The scholars, the researchers, and the academics morally have the obligation to always be sensitive to various things, especially related to phenomena in their surrounding environment.

Nestled among E. M. Forster's careful studies of Edwardian social mores is a short story called “The Machine Stops.” Set many years in the future, it is a work of science fiction that imagines all humanity housed in giant high-density cities buried deep below a lifeless surface. With each citizen cocooned in an identical private chamber, all interaction is mediated through the workings of “the Machine,” a totalizing social system that controls every aspect of human life. Cultural variety has ceded to rigorous organization: everywhere is the same, everyone lives the same life. So hopelessly reliant is humanity upon the efficient operation of the Machine, that when the system begins to fail there is little the people can do, and so tightly ordered is the system that the failure spreads. At the story's conclusion, the collapse is total, and Forster's closing image offers a condemnation of the world they had built, and a hopeful glimpse of the world that might, in their absence, return: “The whole city was broken like a honeycomb. […] For a moment they saw the nations of the dead, and, before they joined them, scraps of the untainted sky” (2001: 123). In physically breaking apart the city, there is an extent to which Forster is literalizing the device of the broken society, but it is also the case that the infrastructure of the Machine is so inseparable from its social structure that the failure of one causes the failure of the other. The city has—in the vocabulary of present-day engineers—“failed badly.”

Many of cultural heritages of the past are detting less known by the present generation. One of which is a pawukon figures and their aesthetic values. Pawukon is a Javanese prediction or calculation based on Hindu mythology regarding time and its association with the prediction of human life based on their wuku (time characteristics). There are 30 pawukon figures, from the Wuku Sinta figure to Wuku Watugunung figure accompanied by a picture of their respective deities. Pawukon figures can be found in primbon books or enlarged and displayed in the interiors of Javanese houses. Pawukon figures such as wayang purwa are equipped with figures of buildings or gedhong, figures of weapons, figures of various types of trees, birds and other figures which each have a certain purpose and meaning. The composition of the various elements makes the overall visuals very interesting to be explored regarding the concept of visual, visual aesthetics and meaning. The pawukon figures also needs to be studied aesthetically regarding to their placement in the Javanese home interior and how to develop them to be better known by the present generation. To explore the aesthetics and development of Pawukon figures, the concept of wangun (aesthetic) derived from the Javanese culture was used. The research findings were interesting because the pawukon figures have the wangun elements and wangun visual arrangenments, wangun placement, and the development of the pawukon figures which is related to the concept of wangun and ora wangun (not aesthetic) or aèng (strange). Pawukon figures were made to remind people to be cautious, and their applications and development into interior design were meant to present the atmosphere of Java.Banyak warisan budaya masa lalu yang kurang dikenal oleh generasi sekarang. Salah satunya adalah angka-angka pawukon dan nilai-nilai estetika mereka. Pawukon adalah prediksi atau perhitungan Jawa berdasarkan mitologi Hindu tentang waktu dan hubungannya dengan prediksi kehidupan manusia berdasarkan wuku mereka (karakteristik waktu). Ada 30 tokoh pawukon, mulai dari tokoh Wuku Sinta hingga tokoh Wuku Watugunung yang disertai gambar dewa masing-masing. Tokoh-tokoh Pawukon dapat ditemukan di buku-buku primbon atau diperbesar dan dipajang di interior rumah-rumah Jawa. Tokoh Pawukon seperti wayang purwa dilengkapi dengan tokoh-tokoh bangunan atau gedhong, tokoh-tokoh senjata, tokoh berbagai jenis pohon, burung dan tokoh-tokoh lain yang masing-masing memiliki tujuan dan makna tertentu. Komposisi dari berbagai elemen membuat keseluruhan visual sangat menarik untuk dieksplorasi mengenai konsep visual, estetika visual dan makna. Tokoh-tokoh pawukon juga perlu dipelajari secara estetis mengenai penempatannya di interior rumah Jawa dan bagaimana mengembangkannya agar lebih dikenal oleh generasi sekarang. Untuk mengeksplorasi estetika dan perkembangan tokoh Pawukon, konsep wangun (estetika) yang berasal dari budaya Jawa digunakan. Temuan penelitian ini menarik karena tokoh pawukon memiliki unsur-unsur wangun dan wangun pengaturan visual, penempatan wangun, dan pengembangan tokoh-tokoh pawukon yang terkait dengan konsep wangun dan ora wangun (bukan estetika) atau aèng (aneh). Sosok-sosok Pawukon dibuat untuk mengingatkan orang agar berhati-hati, dan aplikasi serta pengembangan mereka ke dalam desain interior dimaksudkan untuk menghadirkan suasana Jawa.

The Land and Building Tax Imposition Base (NJOP) is used to determine the basis for Land and Building Taxes. But in reality, NJOP sometimes does not match fair market values. By land valuation experts, a method was formed which approached real land prices, namely the Land Value Zone (ZNT). ZNT in its application and development raises diverse responses. For that, we need to study variables affecting the implementation of ZNT in the community. Therefore, the city of Semarang is considered suitable for case studies on the implementation of ZNT because it is the center of economic activity in Central Java Province. This research is expected to provide benefits regarding the implementation of ZNT as a method to determine the amount of NJOP. The level of acceptance of ZNT implementation in society is measured by 10 variables. The data in this study were obtained using a questionnaire sampling to community. Questionnaire results are then analyzed so as to help further explain statistical results that have been obtained. Facts on the ground show that the people of Semarang City feel the ease and accuracy as well as the fair transparency of market prices for land in ZNT. The analysis results that have been found, there are 3 variables that most influence, namely politics, communication with the parties concerned, and socialization of ZNT. Those improvements are needed on the internal and external factors of the ZNT method and coordination, communication and cooperation between the government and the community.

In Islamic law, khamr is a common type of alcoholic beverage that is forbidden for consumption due to its elements that can intoxicate and lead to loss of self-control. The government of Indonesia also forbids people from consuming the intoxicating beverage in certain levels. Nevertheless, a community group in Batu Payuang Halaban, Lima Puluh Kota Regency, West Sumatra Province, Indonesia, wherein their daily lives can be found a type of traditional beverage as same as khamr that is a fermented juice of sugar palm bunches. The people call it “tuak”. This research aims to investigate how the people of Nagari Batu Payuang produce aia niro and tuak, their motives for buying, selling, and consuming the drink, and judging it from the perspective of Islamic law (hadd al-syurb). This type of research is field research with a qualitative approach. Data sources consisted of primary and secondary. The data collection was conducted by observing the process of producing aia niro, tuak, and the transaction, and in-depth interviews with owners of sugar palm plantation, tuak producers, buyers, sellers, consumers, and local ulama (Islamic scholars). The data were analyzed in descriptive by reduction, display, and verification. To examine this research, the theory used was the concept of hadd al-syurb in Islamic law and the regulation on alcoholic beverages in Indonesia. The results show that aia niro is produced by extracting the bunches of male sugar palm and it is the raw material to produce tuak by leaving the aia niro in jerry cans and adding agarwood bark for 3 days. The sellers have various reasons to sell tuak and its raw materials. Besides the price is higher than brown sugar, it is also motivated by personal and other economic reasons as well as easier processing. People who drink tuak realize that it is intoxicating in a certain amount but they drink it to warm their bodies and relieve their fatigues. In the concept of hadd al-syurb, consuming tuak as an intoxicating substance is haram (forbidden) and is condemned to those who drink it. However, they who trade it are not punished by hudud since the Sunna proposition only refers to the transaction as an act of curse.
