2025-07-18T00:17:21+00:00

This study aims to examine the impact of lighting in creating an atmosphere that reflects a specific theme or style applied in the interior design of Orient Hotel Hideaway Jakarta, making it perceivable, tangible, and observable to users and visitors. Lighting is a crucial element in establishing the ambiance and character of an interior space. Various types of lighting can be implemented depending on the desired mood, and it also serves to enhance the visualization of the room’s stylistic concept. The research employs observation and comparative analysis based on relevant theories. The findings and conclusions are presented descriptively, derived from the researcher’s observations compared with theoretical references. The study concludes that the lighting applied in the interiors of Orient Hotel Hideaway Jakarta effectively contributes to creating an atmosphere that embodies the Vintage Oriental theme adopted in the hotel’s design.

An Effort to Enhance Students’ Learning Creativity through the Application of the Project-Based Learning Model in Batik Craft Education

2025-11-01T12:39:15+00:00

The Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model was chosen because it motivates students to actively participate in the learning process while fostering creativity and practical skills in producing batik artworks. The purpose of this study is to enhance students' creativity in classroom learning activities, particularly in the Batik Craft subject. This study employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method, involving 25 eleventh-grade Textile students at SMKN 3 Kasihan, Bantul, Yogyakarta. The findings revealed an increase in the average student score from 77.76 in the pre-cycle phase to 86.08 in the second cycle, attributed to the implementation of the PjBL model. Additionally, 100% of the students achieved the minimum mastery criteria, indicating that all participants were able to engage effectively in the learning process. This improvement was also reflected in students' enthusiasm and willingness to participate in discussions and hands-on activities. Thus, this study concludes that the PjBL model is effective in enhancing students’ artistic creativity and learning outcomes, particularly in Batik Craft. Furthermore, this research significantly contributes to the advancement of instructional strategies in the classroom and underscores the importance of implementing more interactive and collaborative approaches in art education. It is hoped that the conclusions drawn from this study will support educators in integrating project-based learning paradigms into their teaching practices.

Utilization of the Gamelan EduWeb Website as a Learning Aid for Learning Gamelan Degung

2025-11-01T12:43:48+00:00

This study aims to describe the use of Gamelan EduWeb as a teaching aid for learning Gamelan Degung in Sukabumi Regency, West Java. Qualitative descriptive methods were used to collect data. The steps involved in analyzing the problems encountered in the field. The researcher then developed the Gamelan EduWeb website to meet users' needs. The next step was to implement the website through Gamelan Degung training for teachers and elementary school students in Cisaat District, Sukabumi Regency, West Java. The research findings indicate that the Gamelan EduWeb website can be used by teachers and students as an educational tool for learning Gamelan Degung. This website serves as an alternative for users interested in learning Gamelan Degung but lacking specialized instructors. Although Gamelan EduWeb is already accessible to the public, the website requires further development in terms of feature completeness and instructional materials.

Surface Fabrication as a Medium for Cultural Preservation: Fashion Inspiration the Crocodile Ritual Nui Ulung Buayeh

2025-11-01T13:02:23+00:00

This study investigates the role of surface fabrication as a medium for cultural preservation, focusing on the mound-shaped crocodile symbolism of the Nui Ulung Buayeh ritual in Sabah. Using a qualitative, practice-led methodology that combined ethnographic observation, experimental textile fabrication, and thematic analysis, the research explored how ritual meanings can be translated into fabric manipulation techniques. There are five experimental samples were developed, employing appliqué, quilting, pleating, layering, and slashing to interpret symbolic elements of the ritual. The results demonstrate that fabric surfaces can effectively embody the ritual’s key themes: the crocodile as guardian spirit, water as renewal, community interconnection, and performance as festivity. The findings highlight the potential of surface fabrication to function as both an innovative design practice and a living cultural archive. Policy recommendations include integrating intangible cultural heritage into design education, encouraging collaborations between designers and local communities, and supporting practice-led research within sustainable fashion frameworks. Such initiatives would ensure that endangered rituals like Nui Ulung Buayeh are preserved not only through documentation but also through creative and wearable reinterpretations. Future research should expand this work by developing full garment prototypes, engaging community custodians in participatory validation, and experimenting with digital technologies such as 3D simulation and AI-assisted design. This study concludes that surface fabrication provides a vital bridge between tradition and modernity, affirming fashion’s role as a medium of cultural continuity and innovation.

The Komburongo Futures: A Speculative Exploration of Dusun Spirituality for Sustainable and Critical Cyberpunk Fashion Design

2025-11-13T12:16:53+00:00

Since the modern fashion system continues to be a significant cause of social and environmental harm, a paradigm change towards systems-level sustainable alternatives is required. At the same time, indigenous cultures' intangible cultural heritage—like the Komburongo ritual object used by the Dusun people—is being eroded. These intangible spiritual principles are seldom adequately translated into fashion proposals, which frequently results in shallow appropriation. Using a qualitative research-through-design methodology, our work fills this gap. The study is to: (1) use digital ethnography to investigate the spiritual values of the Komburongo; and (2) create theoretical prototypes that materialise this framework. Digital culture analysis, practice-based experimentation combining tech and organic materials in a critical cyberpunk aesthetic, and assessment in accordance with emotional durability principles were all part of the process. The resulting capsule collection demonstrates how indigenous concepts can inform a sustainable, spiritually based design model. It comes to the conclusion that speculative design offers a potent framework for interacting with intangible cultural heritage, going beyond appropriation to produce creative, morally sound avenues for fashion's future.
