RE: the building is quite old but the design is quite stunning

in Architecture+Design3 years ago

Wow, another architectural masterpiece on stilts @lancang! Because of Indonesia's tropical climate, this construction system has been proven to be extremely effective in counteracting uncomfortable living conditions by providing proper air ventilation within the structure. And as much as this is a public venue where people hold events, their ultimate convenience as well as experience matter the most. 😊

Do you have any idea of the particular style/character of architecture for this building?

Sort:  

First i wanna say thank you so much for your support.

yeah, of course I have a little idea in addition to this building, I think the left and right walls of this building are made a little higher of course it will look better, so that the roof is not too pointy upwards. And also the roof is made into several levels and combined with a minimalist style then it will look better.

Yes @lancang, I understand the technical details and the sort of aesthetic that the building is presenting. However, what I was actually asking is its current architectural style. Is this the Indonesian signature or a mix of many different themes of architecture? Sorry if my question was confusing.

I'm sorry I misunderstood your question, 🙏🙏🙏
first I want to say that Indonesia has many provinces, and each province has a different style and characteristic of architecture, and this building is a hallmark of one of the provinces namely Aceh,
this architectural form and style has become characteristic for Aceh starting from ancient times and is still widely used, I hope you are satisfied with my answer.thanks so much 🙏🙏

Okay, I understand. So, this architectural style is definitely an Aceh-specific design signature, adapting to the local culture of that place. Many thanks for clarifying! 😊

You are very welcome,,🙏🙏🙏
