Abstract
Architecture is an environment product from expression of the values adopted by society. These values are passed down over time to eventually become a culture. The culture of a region is a result of interaction and acculturation that occur in a society. Through the design process, architecture analyze the behaviors of local community and its environment conditions. In globalization era, architectural representation becomes homogeneous. Therefore, to prevent local architecture from being deteriorate it becomes necessary to consider local architecture for developing campus design. This research aims to transform local architecture identity through design development in context of campus design. Architectural expressions were analyzed to illustrate local culture as a descriptive effort. An observation was performed using an interview and observation guide sheet. A three-dimensional matrix was constructed to be an example of design transformation process. It is hope this research will be useful for practitioners in achieving a cultural identity-based design.
Keywords: Local Architecture; Education Building; Design Transformation.
