Management of retail property is important in accommodating tenants who occupy retail space and consumers as a retail property business activity. Performance-based Building Design (PBBD) is a concept that can be used in planning and designing so that retail buildings can operate as expected. In this regard, the strategy of retail space contains three indicators of performance that are effectiveness, profitability, and efficiency. This study finds gaps in retail property management design research. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of PBBD application on the strategy for retail property space in Indonesia. A total of 96 respondents were involved in this study. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey to stakeholders who play a role in the development and management of the retail property in Surabaya. The data were then analyzed using multiple regression. From the analysis, it was found that the application of PBBD, namely user/occupant interest, building management, the process of design collaboration had a positive effect, while the risk of loss had a negative effect. This means that the increased application of PBBD, namely occupant interest, building management, the process of design collaboration and reduced risk of loss in retail buildings, can improve the strategy for managing retail property space in Surabaya, Indonesia. A more detailed analysis of each indicator of the retail space strategy shows different results. The result show that the application of PBBD influence to the effectiveness contributes 44.6%, the influence of PBBD application to the profitability contributes 49.4%, the application of PBBD has an influence for the efficiency by 61.5%, and overall, the influence of PBBD application to the management retail property space contributes 68.9%. The results of this research are very important and have implications for retail space planning strategies. What will happen to retail property management at the operational stage, it can be seen through the implementation of PBBD in the briefing and planning stages.

With the growing attention to smart buildings, local governments are seeking practical ways to optimize the energy consumption of commercial buildings. An ideal smart building is capable of monitoring its own energy consumption and adjusting the operation of electric devices, being lighting and air conditioners, based on the occupant behaviour. In this study, data had been obtained from the monitoring sensors in a commercial building located in the heart of Sydney from 2013 until 2020 on a 15-minute time intervals. The data derivation and analysis are intrinsically static at the moment which makes it difficult for building management to make instantaneous decision regarding the measures to be taken for a lower energy consumption. Using data analysis and visualization tools in Tableau, this study provides detailed insights about the trends in energy consumption in the given building. The outcomes facilitate the decision making for building management and can be seen as a milestone towards a dynamic optimization protocol in a bigger picture which is introduced in the second part of this study.

A lot of new problem arise as the result of the development of information and digital technology that leads to the use of the Internet by millennials, namely cyberbullying. Cyberbullying hasn’t been solved by the millennials even the though the causes has been known. This problem also affects the other generations such as generation X and generation Z also feel the impact. To be more spesific, the definition of cyberbullying is the development of bullying from the traditional way to using digital devices. This is important because until now this problem still underestimated and hasn't received any special treatment even though the bullying cause a lot off negative effect such as depression which lead to suicide. This statement supported by the Kaspersky Lab's researchThe problem is 20% of people who witness of cyberbullying and 7% of the cases of those involved in bullying. Cyberbullying Theracreation project is designed to raise the awareness of cyberbullying in the community targeting the bullier. Theracreation are created from the word combination of theraphy and recreation. it’s related to the used solution method of the project called cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT). It’s combined with spatial experience in architecture and digital technology which consists of VR so that the therapy process is carried out without having to deal directly with a psychologist. The benefits of this therapeutic system can be done at any time in a predetermined location so that improving the community's process of cyberbullying can be done effectively. For the design concept, emphasize on the improvements in the community the concept building which blend with the level difference building design and focusing the activities at one center point. AbstrakSebagai hasil dari perkembangan teknologi informasi dan digital yang mengarah pada penggunaan Internet secara berlebihan oleh generasi millenial muncul masalah yaitu intimidasi dunia maya atau lebih dikenal dengan cyberbullying. Cyberbullying sendiri tidak terpaku pada generasi milenial saja melainkan generasi lainnya seperti generasi X dan generasi Z. Cyberbullying merupakan pengembangan perilaku bullying dari cara tradisional ke penggunan perangkat digital. Untuk menangani kasus tersebut diajukanlah proyek Cyberbullying Theracreation atau Terapi Cyberbullying berbasis rekreasi yang difokuskan untuk membangun cyberbullying awareness dalam masyarakat khususnya pelaku cyberbullying. Karena sampai sekarang belum kasus ini masih disepelekan dan belum mendapat perlakuan khusus. Hal tersebut didukung oleh hasil penelitian Kaspersky Lab. Cyberbullying dapat menimbulkan pemikiran tentang bunuh diri, terkadang bertahan hingga dewasa. Bahayanya 20% dari orang-orang yang menyaksikan bullying secara online dan di 7% kasus mereka bahkan berpartisipasi dalam kasus bullying. Theracreation sendiri berasal dari pengabungan kata terapi (therapy) dan rekreasi (recreation) ini mengacu pada metode yang digunakan yaitu terapi rekreasi berprogram terapi kognitif perilaku (CBT) yang dipadukan dengan unsur arsitektur (pengalaman ruang) dan teknologi digital berupa VR sehingga proses terapi dilakukan tanpa harus berhadapan langsung dengan psikolog. Keuntungan dari sistem terapi ini adalah terapi bisa dilakukan kapanpun di lokasi yang sudah ditentukan sehingga dalam proses meningkatkan empati masyarakat terhadap cyberbullying bisa dilakukan secara efektif. Dalam desainnya, dengan tetap menekankan peningkatan empati dalam masyarakat dciptakan konsep arsitektur yang berbaur sehingga perbedaan level pada bangunan tersamarkan dan memusatkan aktivitas pada 1 titik pusat.

This study investigates the positive and negative effects of online teaching on EFL students’ learning motivation. There are 26 English majors in a Chinese university participant in this study. Data were collected from multiple sources: semi-structured interview and direct observation. The result shows that in the course aspect, it has a positive effect. In the teacher aspect, it has both negative and positive effects. But in the learning group aspect, it has a negative effect, because of losing of students’ interaction.

<p>A political crisis is currently underway in New Zealand with a critical lack of affordable well-designed housing. Due to the presence in New Zealand of such vast timber resources and our enviable global location for export shipping, there are great economic and industry opportunities for the production of prefabricated timber housing. However, the contemporary architectural position on prefabrication is often limited by the inability to evidence individuality, diverse detailing and robust habitability with a predetermined production ‘formula’. This thesis argues that the anonymous open plan nature of prefabrication facilities is restricting prefabrication from achieving high levels of architectural design that evidence qualities of craft. This thesis argues that by using an interdisciplinary approach recognising qualities of shared authorship with prefabrication, this highly effective form of construction can satisfy a wider market while maintaining key architectural values of individuality (authorship), detailing (craft) and habitability (integrated technical functions, sustainability, etc.).  The design research explores how the design of a large-scale prefabrication facility can encourage craft and authorship within production processes. Similarly through design exploration the facility intends to provide a cohesive understanding and implementation of complex and specialised industry systems alongside production processes. The design also explores how the facility can provide an environment where this collaboration can be meaningfully encouraged, while also facilitating collaborative learning to resolve prefabrication design-related problems.  The site for the proposed new Trade Build Facility is on the border of Wellington’s operational port of Centre Port, on the south intersection of Waterloo Quay and Cornwell Street, Pipitea, alongside a resource of raw logs with multiple national and international transport modes. The thesis proposes the experimental design of a facility that focuses on timber beginning with the processing of the raw log at the input end, through to the pre-fabricated housing units at the output end. This thesis proposes a production facility that also takes on the role of an educational design vehicle for both the architect and the architectural student to develop and engage the latest technologies of design and construction in the field of prefabrication, providing them with the foundation for entering the complexities of the current architectural design profession. It is intended that users will witness the actual creation of a system of architecture, in a setting explicitly designed to enable these conditions to transform and evolve in step with the latest industry developments. This results in a productive partnering between design and construction, production and education, architect and architectural student through the refined inclusion of craft and authorship in architectural design.  The thesis actively seeks a design solution that develops future design outcomes of prefabricated timber production facilities through an enhanced and responsive adaptability within the facility. The building design also encourages robust and cohesive collaboration by incorporating multidisciplinary specialists with the production and education processes of prefabrication. As a result this thesis argues that architects will be provided greater opportunities for exploring craft and authorship within the context of prefabrication. The problems addressed by the strategic design experiments are prefabrication focused; however the situation is emblematic of a greater problem in the overall field of architecture. Through a focused evaluation on the collaborative environment experienced in the production of prefabrication, valuable lessons are transferable to all collaborative construction-based work environments, facilitating the ability to engender qualities of craft in an architecturally advanced industry.</p>

<p>High-density living has always been proclaimed as a way of the future, but the future is now here and we are plagued by inadequate, uninviting city-living environments. This design research paper aims to produce an alternate design method that can be applied to apartment living in New Zealand to produce positive, affordable apartment designs.  The late 20th and early 21st centuries has seen urban New Zealand become an increasingly popular place to live. Large numbers are drawn to the cities by the convenience of closer proximity to amenities and greater job prospects. This urbanisation overlaps with the constant growth of the country’s overall population which, combined, puts pressure on cities as land becomes an increasingly rare commodity. In response, cities often expand outward. The negative effect of this has been heavily documented.  The introduction of high density living solutions has attempted to combat the ever increasing ‘suburban sprawl.’ Many apartment complexes have risen in response to this demand, especially in the cities of Auckland and Wellington. However, this is where the problem develops. A large proportion of smaller, more affordable apartments have been identifi ed to be poorly designed, producing low quality spaces and unsatisfactory living environments. Moreover, the public perception of these ‘shoebox’ apartments is highly negative.  This research not only investigates the issues associated with the small apartments in New Zealand but seeks to improve upon them by learning from an international precedent. The Japanese architectural movement of Kyosho-Jutaku or Micro-living provides urban accommodation through space effi cient stand-alone dwellings. These dwellings were developed in response to the harsh urban and economic conditions in the early 1990s and continue to be built throughout Japan’s urban prefectures. The architects of Japanese micro-architecture approach small spaces with design strategies resulting in interiors which appear expansive beyond their physical limits and produce quality living environments. Through the analysis and diagrammatic formulation of these Japanese micro-architecture design strategies, this research aims to produce an applicable technique for ‘micro’ design in New Zealand. The contexts are removed allowing the singular strategies to be understood and manipulated, expanding the design possibilities for each technique. Ultimately, this thesis tests the applicability of planning and spatial design strategies, adapted from Japanese micro-architecture, to a New Zealand context in the development of small, high quality urban apartments.</p>
