ABSTRACT
For the “A” New Museum of Indonesian Batik, Ivan Saputra was the architect winner of the Museum Design Competition in
2013. Preparation for the competition required architectural
design guidelines,
which were an important part of
the terms of
reference for the project. This paper aims to provide an overview of the issues
surrounding the work involved in
the collaboration work between
the Indonesian government and multi-disciplinary
participants to establish museum
design guidelines for this competition. By articulating and
elaborating the characteristics of several famous museums design in the world, by defining relevant architectural theories, and by
exploring an in-depth analysis
of “batik”, which UNESCO
designated as Intangible Heritage of Humanity of UNESCO in 2009, the
architectural design guidelines were
developed based onfindings revealedby
inserting “batik”
itself as the museum storyline into contemporary architecture. By referring to trans-disciplinary methods and concepts, then the process of batik making is potentially
a kind of architectural “showing
off” to expose the uniqueness of
Indonesian batik as well as the Architecture-Event
theory promoted by
French philosopher Jacques Derrida.
KEYWORDS
