Melihat Arsitektur Islam dari Perspektif Sunnah dan Arsitektur Organik Frank Lloyd Wright

Nangkula Utaberta

Abstrak

Buku ini berusaha memberikan sebuah studi dan pendekatan terhadap Arsitektur Islam yang mengacu kepada sumber dan prinsip dasar dari Islam yaitu Al-Qur ’an dan Sunnah, bukan hanya kepada produk yang dihasilkan oleh masyarakat Islam. Disamping itu pembahasan ini juga berupaya memberikan sebuah bentuk pengaplikasian dari pendekatan nilai ini dengan melakukan sebuah penyerapan dan pengadaptasian ide-ide dari gerakan Arsitektur Modern secara khususnya Frank Lloyd Wright ke dalam pembentukan filosofi dan teori Arsitektur Islam. Pembahasan buku ini terbagi atas pembahasan tentang krisis, isu-isu, masalah dan pendekatan terhadap apa yang dipahami sebagai Arsitektur Islam, Studi terhadap kehidupan Frank Lloyd Wright dari perspektif nilai serta ide-ide dan filosofi desain dari Arsitektur Organik Frank Lloyd Wright. Diharapkan kajian ini dapat memulakan sebuah diskusi intelektual yang integratif dan dinamis serta membentuk kerangka pemikiran dan filosofi dari Arsitektur Islam sebagai sebuah kajian yang kokoh dan integratif.

2013: Book: Reconstructing a Pedagogical Framework for Critique Sessions: Toward Sustainable Architecture Education

Reconstructing a Pedagogical Framework for Critique Sessions: Toward Sustainable Architecture Education

Badiossadat Hassanpour, Nangkula Utaberta

Abstract
Once a technology is developed in a certain country, it’s know- how can be instantly spread out all over the world, neglecting the cultural aspects of countries to or from which it propagates .On the contrary the spiritual and cultural aspects of human life, namely, how to enrich men’s day by day life, cannot easily be communicated. The interchange of man’s cultural aspects is not as easy as that of materialistic ones. Education as a first stage of attitude and effect on future can play an important role. Especially in art and architecture which is completely linked with spiritual and mental aspects and has direct effect on thoughts and ideas; even it can make a pattern and line behavior for human’s life. So this book tries to investigate about architecture education and critique sessions as its backbone. First we take a look on what is going on in design studios and then will classify the critique methods in different type of studios and will explain each. Later by mentioning all effects of implemented methods on Malaysian students of architecture in National University of Malaysia as a case study, the book tries to give suggestions to upgrade the existing system.

2014: Book: A Little Rendezvous in Bali

We have always been exposed to travelling ever since before I took architecture. For each trip there’s a travelogue (short or long) that I created. The experience, understanding, exposure, adventure and escapade to new places, new cultures and new people are something that everyone feels excited to do. Being and architect now, it helps to literally participate from the planning of the trip to the actual excursion. And this particular travelogue are filled with overly- stylised drawings and photos to make those who read to simmer with imaginations. We would like to present, with great pleasure, a travelogue that illustrates and records every single moment in the magical Island of Bali through a combined effort of our 3rd year students. The travelogue expresses every single participant’s thoughts, feelings and experiences. It is structured in such a way that each day is presented through their SEE, FOOD and PLAY sections.

2013: Introducing Our New Book: Pemikiran Seni Bina Islam Moden di Dunia & Malaysia, Published by Penerbit UTM Johor

Pemikiran Seni Bina Islam Moden di Dunia & Malaysia

Abstract
Islam adalah salah satu daripada dua agama yang terbesar di dunia dimana politik dan ekonomi Islam mempunyai impak yang sangat besar dalam arus globalisasi masa kini.Walau bagaimanapun, kebudayaan Islam tidak dapat menular sekukuh budaya Barat. Salah satu sebabnya adalah kecetekan pemikiran dalam bidang Seni Bina. Bangunan yang terpapar ketika ini menjadi refleksi ketandusan minda arkitek Islam dan para cendekiawan Islam. Buku ini ditulis sebagai landasan pertama bagi mencetuskan perdebatan tentang pemikiran Seni Bina Islam.
