Abstract

Abstract: Liveability interprets as making residents comfortable in their built environment. As daylighting becomes a necessity for human beings, daylight availability can improve the liveability of dwelling habitats, especially in high-density urban areas. Relayouting the building block without reducing the usable floor area can improve daylight availability. Kampung Braga is an example of how a heavy slum area has a low liveability quality and classifies into impoverished slum settlements at the stake of being resettled. The spatial arrangement becomes necessary to enhance the community's quality of life. This article aims to examine how the intervention through urban layout can affect daylight availability to improve the liveability for kampung Braga. This research uses simulation methods with climate-based daylight modelling (CBDM) software to simulate daylighting with a dynamic approach. Rhinoceros for modelling, Honeybee for vertical sky component (VSC) simulation, and DIVA for daylight availability simulation. Based on the simulation on three alternative urban layouts in line with spatial plan context, it is shown that intervention through urban layout and typology of kampung Braga has shown better VSC and daylight availability values than the existing conditions. It is necessary to pay attention to the context of the building around the site when designing a specific building typology. Modifying configuration, floor height, model, and orientation show a better VSC reception and vertical facade illumination. City stakeholders need to be aware of the low liveability of the urban kampung. Planning the right urban plan design can improve daylighting availability and increase the liveability of the urban kampung.
