Unfortunately, in that respect hardly ever an interior functioner who is unbidden to get involved in a secondary reckon support design chore whereas in fact, an room decorator stand is extremely withdrawed in one. large procedure need a break openicular interior designerure solution for their wish of budget, space, material, and opportunity in construct a ho occasion. On the different hand, the lower-ranking budget house should be made with an inclinationl plan so it wouldnt represent much(prenominal) than the blood they get.Which hopefully, stopful be wear offe with a hand from an architect. A intimately low budget house should be a sturdy one, so that it could have a low maintenance and sustainable construction. It should have fine light and circulation thus it wint need much galvanic energy which to a fault means parsimoniousness the energy and expense The space should be becomingly de sign(a) in an submit space, thus every space purchasable is properly utilise and the material and building be effective and efficiently apply a long with the necessity so that the building make up can also be economized.In Indonesia, the issue is crucial payable to the need of nice tone house supporting a good part of life. With a hearty-constructed milieu comes well mixer environment. The conundrum is the fact that close architects lack of a state of wareness these days towards the need of mall class purchase order for a good architecture. Not to mention the society which doesnt seem to assume architecture as a fundamental issue. The main problem due to the problems, thither is a very different opinion somewhat how should a rchitects deals with this matter.To nettle an affordable houses designed by an architect, initial of all architect should lowering the evaluate below the quantity rates pellucid by the Indonesian Architects Association. This is non a really psychel solution, because ethically those who motive to create a damage war in the business could misuse it. In the other hand, if we keep up with the standard fees, it was to high to be carry through by the poor. The Affordable HousesAffordable housing and low cost housing are the most talking toed more or less issues in the real terra firma sector these days. However, there is a distinct difference mingled with the two ideals. In the absence of an institutional letting grocery store in Indonesia affordable and low cost housing de nones ownership and not rental housing. Low cost housing in general refers to cost effective housing that relies on low cost technology that ensures similar feel and durability as compared to more unremarkably used technologies.In Indonesia, the affordable houses was expressed by the government through any(prenominal) of the rules and laws and minimum standard, Indonesian government effect somewhat rules nearly it such as1 It provides a comfort, save, and proper shelter for the user It provides a proper air circulation, and ventilation for infixed light It provides drainage, clean water, and a proper waste arranging It provides access to earth facility It provides electricityMore over, there is some standard minimum flying field of the houses so it would fulfill the criteria to be called as ideal affordable houses (on exhibit 1 & 2)2 Theres still some unfinished points about this criteria and standards, for examples the government stupefy up the standard height for crown in houses should about to be just about 3. 2 meters from the floor. In fact, with a expectant design on the layout and opening for windows and doors, 2. 4 meters from the floor is all needed to had a proper, safe, comfort, and healthy affordable houses. Business morals for architects in IndonesiaArchitects is someone creating an architecture3. The job is to retain a real manifesto from the idea and the needs of a client. In doing their jobs an architect give a focus on some designs factors during the surgical operation, some of those are the sprint of the building, air circulation, natural light, ventilation, concepts, and the basic grammatical construction of the building, the materials that should be use, and so on. The working dish up would be conk right subsequently the architect had been chosen by the client, the contiguous xtep is to collect all the neccessary data, surveys, and then the interview begin.After the architect and the client had reach some agreement of how the design proccess should be done, the client gave the down payment no more than a 30% of radical of the architects fee on the current project to get to the preliminary design play. It including the plan, elevation, and 3D image. Another 30% was given after, to start the work drawing, and at last some other 30% to blast all the expatiate and full drawing. There is no rules about the supervision during the construction process yet, but some architects takes 10% left as the supervision fee, and some ask for another(prenominal) contracts.According to The Indonesian architects draw (known As IAI stands for Ikatan Arsitek Indonesia) the rules for an architects fee is categorise through their experiences. So the senior the architect are, the more he or she should be paid4. There are 2 large-minded of fee classification according on divisions experiences. The first one is calculated from man/hour, man/month, veritable(a) man/ year (see exhibit 3). The reciprocal ohm is to calculate the fee from the total price of the projects. The basic fee is 6-9% for housing and 3-5% for general space5. This fee is the minimum standard to strain a quality control of archi tects whole kit throughout Indonesia.studio apartment habitat studio apartment habitat is volunteer organization of students and professionals in the field of architecture that helps design for cost effective houses clients, doing the design process for free. During their works we had a fellowship with home ground for Humanity, an internationalistic nonprofit organization that helps families build safe, decent and affordable houses by providing labors and inte respire-free funding. Studio habitat was established to answer the need for good design to help home partner (known as partner families as a clients) build their houses under home ground program.Studio Habitat Indonesia, whose participants are mostly students of architecture helps to design houses for partner families. Students, who are used to designing houses on base, get a chance to actually build their designs and look on some function in the process. Ideally every Habitat for Humanity home partner that chooses to do so will have their house designed by participants of Studio Habitat Indonesia, under supervision of a mentor. The mentors are professional architects who volunteer for Habitat.Studio Habitat plays a more specific role, as architecture students are involved in designing houses, in addition to component with the actual construction. The student become more adept in dealing with clients and we catch to be more sensitive to the need of the family in regard to their house is one of the benefits they get from joining Studio Habitat Indonesia. Students joining Studio Habitat talk to the homeowner. They survey the site and design the house in-group supervised by a mentor. consequently they will give the workshop-draw to the Habitat for Humanity, and design the building budgeting plan.Afterwards the volunteers go to the fix as the houses were built, to supervised and checked whether the workers had a problems on the building process. The Issue charm Studio Habitat continuing to help the client, some problems occur. Some architects began to protest about the free- hearing concept this organization used. They dont see any positive thing in a perspective of an architect to do such projects, and they afraid that this free- denotation idea would inspire some bad quality consultant to create some smorgasbord war of setting the price between architects.Some of them had bad experiences on contact clients requested such a low price for the architect fee, and seeing this concept as a thread. This situation is not a new problem, for a long time present architects of The Indonesian architects standstill had struggled to compete the bad quality so called illegal-architects which selling their drawing per sheet on a very low prices. Others gave a free design, in ex falsify to use them as a contractor in the construction process. This is not just a thread to the architects, but also to the client, and more over it threatened the architecture business in Indonesia.To solve these problems, Indonesian architects railroad tie set the rules on the protection of the architecture business and tried to have it signed by the government on 2010. As for Studio Habitat, they create their own rules and criteria for up coming projects. It includes, the criteria of the client such as income, profession, family background, and so on. And for the houses they set the limits on budget, area, and function. And change the musical mode they do the consulting process. The free mention programs In brief, the idea is to provide a free of burgeon forth architecture citation system for a low budget house design.The program should be held on a regular basis from one to another middle class social area by turns in order to collect the data about related issue. As a result, this consultation might develop to a fundraise or loan track practise for pile with less budget, a coordination of society self-help activity done voluntarily, or low budget house renovation with fo llowed by a fund raising. With a complete data, this program certainly can be a facility to provide germ of information and education both for the architect and client as well.The targets of the program are low budget house clients who dont know how to optimally expire their budget, space and opportunity. By planning a neat design of the house, the money can be spent properly, plus the rest of it could be used for another need. With a frequently updated data system, the information of building material price and execution charge could help to free from the possibility of deception. It can be sure that, with a well design, every cost spent is suitable and not useless. The most important part of the program is to gathering a number of architects who are willing to give voluntary consultation.And then followed up by finding fund supporting parties so that the consultation and design ideas are not but can be seen on the paper but can also be a realized. At last, forming a system amo ng society to support each other, peculiarly in designing low budget house architecture within their environment which is not only limited to exclusive house for living but also semipublic accommodations. The purpose of this program is to dish out enthusiasm and idea that everyone deserves good architecture.Therefore, hopefully the community consists of society, architect as well as everyone interested, has been formed within a year. With a simple and low cost system, along with the ability to support someone through cooperation system, the program is wished to develop more and become an inspiration for other society and architect communities. Conclusion From a long, one-on-one consultation process, at the client house, to a short but mass consultation done in villages and traditional public space, The Studio Habitat had change their style of helping the low-income clients.Therefore, the target of the program would not be missed and not macrocosm misuse by irresponsible peopl e. And first from 2009, Studio Habitat is focused on designing prototype of an anti-disaster house for the government. The process is 90% done by the architecture student, within under Indonesian architects association considered as an internship programs member, and allowed to do the design process for free under supervision of certificated architects.The process would help to create a standard about what is architects and what can they do for their clients, so if a good design is for everyone their should be a specific ethics and laws on running the business. And to narrowed the feast between the architects and clients, the affordable houses for the low-income clients is the best way to do, while waiting for the government to rate up with the legal laws.
