Abstract: Kamanasa Village in Malaka Regency is a vernacular village inherited based on the knowledge and local wisdom of the Lawalu tribe. Kamanasa people obey traditions and customs for obedience to tribal ancestors. The concept of obedience arises in settling cultures, in village spatial planning and residential and material use. The architectural concepts that exist in the village of Kamanasa have ecological characteristics in the form, structure and use of materials, also in the behavior of the Kamanasa people. This study focuses on identifying the economic concepts of Kamanasa vernacular architecture and how the sustainability of ecological concepts is maintained. Field observations and literature studies of ecological design principles were used in this study. The results of the study showed that the vernacular village of Kamanasa applied an ecological concept of architecture in accordance with the principles of ecological design that were inherited through the tradition of building houses, linkages with the environment, and social relations in mutual cooperation. The Kamanasa vernacular village is still supported by aspects of traditional beliefs and norms, so the ecological concept of the Kamanasa vernacular architecture deserves to be an ecological concept of cultural architecture.Keywords: Ecological, Vernacular Architecture, Kamanasa VillageAbstrak: Desa Kamanasa di Kabupaten Malaka merupakan desa vernakular yang diwarisi berdasarkan pengetahuan dan kearifan lokal suku Lawalu.
