Abstract: Chinese settlement in Bandung is an inseparable entity that existed along with the development of the
historical city. But due to the rapid development of the city and cultural restrictions policy during the New
Order era, Chinese settlements are intentionally immersed socially by modernization and even neglected.
Political changes by the end of the 1990s provide an opportunity for Chinese cultural practitioners to start
preserving a culture. Many methods are conducted to conserve valuable heritage. One of them is to
transform a Chinese heritage house attached with Chinese architecture elements, furnished the interior with
Chinese style furniture so that it can educate society as well about the richness of the culture. The case study
is the house of Mr. Lin at Gang Basalamah that was transformed into an art collector house. This paper aims
to describe the transformation of the house and shows the physical elements that exposed Chinese
contemporary culture. The research will be qualitative research based on purposive chosen sample on the
house and explore the idea of sustainability that emerged from the transformation decision done by the
owner. The research findings are the optimization of cultural revitalization as a result of the transformation
of the house.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Chinese Indonesian Dwelling
during Dutch Colonial Era
Learning about Chinese Indonesian houses; most of
the scientific materials currently available mostly are
the discussion of earlier Chinese dwellings, in areas
called as Pecinan in the historical littoral old cities
along the coast of Indonesian islands. The Pecinan is
a product of Dutch colonial Wijkenstelsel
segregation policy since the 18
th
century that
Chinese communities should be contained in
specific bonded areas only (Kustara, 2009: 72-74).
During the ending of the 19
th
century, the
obstructions were relaxed and gradually released.
Some Chinese people who have fortune built
significant spacious houses outside of the ghettos.
Those mansions have a courtyard and specific
Chinese customs of closed buildings plan, with
components, and ornaments intense with Chinese
symbolic meaning. They have made modifications in
architectural aspects to suit tropical weather and
local social culture features, named as Indische
Empire style; a hybridization of local Indonesian
(Javanese) style mixed with Dutch/European style,
and then added up with Chinese architecture
elements. Architecturally they are called eclectic
designs, extravagant buildings to display the pride of
the owner’s successful lives, huge mansions with
refined mixed Chinese cultural taste.
The development of Indonesia as a nation and
especially Bandung with the contribution of the
Chinese community happens within 5 centuries.
According to Blusse in Kustedja (2012: 106), the
first arrival of Chinese immigrants had been detected
since the early 15
th
century; sailing through the
western path passing Sumatra and Java and also
through the eastern path passing the Maluku
archipelago and the western coast of Kalimantan.
But the formation of Chinese settlements in the

cities of Java started in the mid of the 17
th
century.
Moreover, we know that the formation of the
Chinese settlements could not be separated from the
intervention done by the Dutch that arranged the
settlements segregation according to the ethnic
group and other restrictions to control the mobility
of the Chinese community.
In addition to the rich heritages of the Dutch
colonials, Bandung also has many precious Chinese
community settlements which have been developed
since the early 18th century. During that particular
period, the Dutch issued three policies that gave
impact to Bandung that was the construction of a
road along the island of Java, the construction of a
railway and the development of a Chinese camp
according to the decree dated on 9
th
June 1810. The
development of the Chinese camp was to utilize
empty lands for improving the welfare of the people
(Kustedja: 2012, 114). At the beginning, the policy
of the Dutch to improve the development of
Bandung was an effort to fulfill the needs of
residential facilities which later developed into the
central government and economy in 1810.
Therefore, Bandung was inaugurated as the capital
of the district on the 25
th
September 1810.
At the turn of the 20
th
century, as Bandung
gained more economic and political significance, the
Chinese population grew as being involved in trade
and manufacturing industries and in various white-
collared jobs in service industries (Tunas, 2009: 31).
Furthermore, the growth of Bandung that involved
the Chinese communities inherits some cultural
heritages, both tangible and intangible, that can still
be found in certain areas. The most significant
Chinese heritages in Bandung are architectural
artifacts such as residential, hotels, schools, sacred
temples, shop houses and commercial buildings
owned by the Chinese descendants. Some of them
are in good condition and others are not. These
heritages evolved along with the needs of the
owners; some are well preserved, others are
converted into another function and some others are
not even identified due to lack of information.
Discussing about Chinese cultures in Indonesia,
we cannot deny the sociological problems that
started decades ago. It is obvious that during the
Dutch occupation, peoples in Indonesia were
segregated by ethnic groups to avoid gaining power
through unity that might cause problems to the
Dutch. The Chinese for many years had become a
social buffer to separate the Dutch with the local
citizens. In some cases, even the Chinese were
accused of being accomplices of the Dutch, although
there were some Chinese who fought and rebelled
against the Dutch during the occupation.
1.2 Chinese Indonesian Dwelling after
the Indonesian Proclamation
After the Indonesian proclamation of the
independence, the Chinese descendants had become
part of the society, but still with the foreigner status.
Twenty years later, for about three decades (1965
1998), Chinese cultures were unexpectedly not able
to grow in Indonesia due to some political issues.
Ethnic discrimination emerged and Chinese
descendants were forced to leave their nationality
and even their Chinese names. Chinese Culture,
Chinese language and even characters were not
allowed to be shown in public. The acting
government at that time nurtured the anti-Chinese
spirit among the nation. Therefore Chinese cultures
were sublimed yet live within the heart of the
Chinese descendants. Chinese Indonesian release
Chineseness ornament in houses, and increasingly
turned towards local and Western style architecture.
Three decades was sufficient to disrupt the
process of inheritance of the culture to the younger
generations. Younger generations, both Chinese and
locals have lack of knowledge about the Chinese
cultures and heritages in Bandung and cause a latent
threat to the sustainability of the Chinese Heritage.
People of Bandung hardly can understand the
significance of the Chinese cultural heritages, so
those heritages are in a serious thread of
mistreatment, misunderstood and even possibly
facing destruction.
Fortunately, at the end of the second millennium,
supported by the reformation spirit of the nation, a
new paradigm of nationalism emerged; values of
humanity and plurality were considered in a new
way. K.H. Abdurrachman Wahid, as the President of
the Republic of Indonesia at that time, opened the
gates of ethnic discriminations that had been closed
for decades and widened the way of multiculturalism
and plurality in the nationhood of Indonesia,
especially for the Chinese descendants.
Nowadays there are many Chinese organizations
in Indonesia. The spirit of reformation seemed to
have touched the roots of political awareness of the
Chinese descendants. Now they are actively
involved in both social and political daily life of the
nationhood of Indonesia. Chinese descendants’
cultures rose as part of the nation’s culture. They
live as Indonesian culture and are greatly diverse.
This situation opens opportunities to rethink and
ICE-HUMS 2021 - International Conference on Emerging Issues in Humanity Studies and Social Sciences
286
reposition the Chinese cultures and also re-identified
the cultural heritages in order to preserve it.
This paper aims to describe a case study of a
Chinese Indonesian person who is very concerned
about the preservation of Chinese cultural heritage.
He revitalized his old house into an art house and
shows the physical elements that exposed Chinese
contemporary culture.
2 METHODS AND MATERIALS
2.1 Sustainable Development
Sustainable development is a development process
based on the principle of meeting the needs of the
present without sacrificing the needs of future
generations. One of the factors faced in achieving
this development is maintaining the environment
without sacrificing the needs of economic
development and social justice. Development by
paying attention to the preservation of cultural,
historical, social values, and building conservation
to improve people's lives is one of the concerns in
the declaration of the United Nations Climate
Change Conference (“COP21”) in Paris and the
Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction
2015-2030.
Conservation of cultural heritage in sustainable
development supports the 2015-2030 Sustainable
Development Goals initiated by the United Nation.
Cities or areas with cultural heritage need to be
managed properly so as to create a more established,
safe, sustainable city and human life by making
efforts to protect and maintain world cultural
heritage and natural cultural heritage (The
Ecological Sequestration Trust, 2016).
2.2 Conservation of Cultural Heritage
The cultural heritage is the expression of a variety of
ways of living built by a community that is passed
from generation to generation, including customs,
practices, places, objects, artistic expression and a
certain value. This cultural heritage is both tangible
and intangible (ICOMOS, 2002). There are 3 types
of cultural heritage: built environment that includes
building, city and archeological remnants; natural
environment that includes rural environment, coastal
environment, and agricultural heritage; and artifacts
includes documents, books, products and pictures.
Cultural heritage is very important since it indicates
the level of a nation's civilization.
Cultural heritages are unique, rare, fragile and
cannot be renewed or replaced by various
technologies and materials that exist today because it
is an authentic legacy of human activity in the past.
The threat of destruction of various cultural
heritages is usually caused by 2 factors: the first is
the impact of time considering that the material will
slowly deteriorate over time; the second is active
destruction due to disaster, war and others (Svoboda,
2013).
Cultural heritages need to be preserved due to its
importance. The preservation that is carried out does
not rely merely on physical preservation, but
includes various intrinsic values contained in
cultural heritages. Cultural heritage must be treated
very carefully to avoid any damage caused and any
changes in the heritages, because the slightest
change has the potential to reduce the significant
cultural values.
There are various basic concepts of action that
can be taken as a concrete effort to preserve this
cultural heritage:
1. Conservation is the entire process of
managing a place so that its cultural meaning
is maintained. This includes conditions-
appropriate maintenance which includes
Preservation, Restoration, Reconstruction and
Adaptation
2. Maintenance is the continuous maintenance
of a building, the meaning and arrangement
of a place.
3. Preservation is maintaining (preserving) what
has been built somewhere in its original state
without any changes and prevents
destruction.
4. Restoration is restoring what has been built in
a place to its original known state, by
removing additions or rebuilding original
components without using new materials.
5. Reconstruction is rebuilding a place in
accordance with the original conditions that
are known and differentiated by using new or
old materials.
6. Adaptation is changing a place according to
the function that can be combined.
7. Revitalization is a development activity
aimed at regrown important values of cultural
heritage by adjusting new spatial functions
that do not conflict with the principles of
preservation and community cultural values.
Simon Thurley proposes his idea of how to make
cultural heritage a part of modern society today
Transformation of a Chinese Cultural Heritage House in Bandung: Towards Sustainability
287
through a cycle: enjoying, understanding, valuing
and maintaining. According to Thurley, when a
cultural heritage is enjoyed by society, there is an
effort to understand it. Once understood, the cultural
heritage is given a special value or meaning. After it
is interpreted specifically, people will take care of it.
After the cultural heritage is preserved, people will
enjoy it, and this cycle will continue (Thurley,
2005).
2.3 Chinese Contemporary
Architecture
Chinese contemporary architecture refers to the
buildings that were designed after the start of the
Opium wars in the 1840s. During that period,
Chinese architecture began to elaborate the
traditional Chinese style with the western
architectural characteristics. The traditional elements
such as sweeping roofs, open courtyards, screens
and wooden columns as elements held over the
Ming Dynasty (1368 – 1644) and those inherent to
the Qing Dynasty (1644 – 1911) of the time
remained prominent.
By its openness to western culture, China started
to adopt an eclectic European style in Chinese
architecture during the 1840s to 1920s. Several main
treaty ports such as Guangzhou, Xiamen, and
Shanghai possessed lots of buildings designed by
foreign architects. The so-called Chinese
contemporary architecture is therefore an idea of
blending traditional style of architecture with a more
eclectic Western architectural style in terms of
expression. But in the narration there are 3 aspects
that are treated in the process: form and function
examined in architectural ontology, the social and
cultural value of architectural texts and the
technological evaluation of architectural products
(Xue, 2006: 5).
During the past decade, the understanding of
contemporary Chinese architecture has changed.
Along with the massive growth of China’s cities,
architects have a larger opportunity to work freely,
innovatively, distinctively and creatively. Architects
find their way in these sudden eruptions of speedy
changes; they react creatively and critically upon
these changing conditions. Architects are looking at
tradition as an inspiration, as an intellectual and
conduct physical engagement with the creation of
space (de Muynck, 2016).
2.4 Contemporary Chinese Indonesia
Home
This research paper focused on a current Chinese
Indonesian dwelling. The previous existing studies
generally discuss Chinese buildings during the
Dutch colonized situation; most of the research will
refer to heritage buildings of expansive Indische
Empires mansions style, decorated with extravagant
traditional Chinese symbolic elements, and old-style
furnishings made with special custom ornaments
related to Chinese culture. This case study object
was purposely chosen, described, analyzed, and
interpreted by comparing to typical styles of
traditional Chinese culture.
This paper tries to discuss a well preserved house
located in Gang Basalamah (Basalamah Alley)
Bandung city, at a business block area (Astana
Anyar – Jendral Sudirman). Gang Basalamah is a
narrow street of 2 meters in width. Along the
western street entrance; nearly half of the street
length, with hawker stalls on both sides becoming a
traditional wet market called Pasar Basalamah
(Basalamah Market). They are selling specifically
Chinese dishes’ materials (pork, fishes, frogs, crabs,
chicken, beef, and Chinese vegetables), condiments,
and Chinese spices. On the east side of the road is a
clear street without any stalls on both sides are
residential areas. The nominated house is a
consolidated lot of 3 houses, Gang Basalamah
number 4, 6, and 8.

Figure 2: Building (Basalamah 6, 8) façade as seen to the

ICE-HUMS 2021 - International Conference on Emerging Issues in Humanity Studies and Social Sciences
288
Figure 3: Façade (Basalamah 4, 6, 8) as seen to the east,
junction with Jalan Kasmin.
The owner is Mr. Lin Che Wei, a successful
professional and businessman. His childhood time
was living in the house Basalamah Alley 8. Mr. Lin
also owns another building facing the main street
(Jendral Sudirman Street) once used as an art gallery
Sarasvati house. Those two places are connected
through a short alley. In this Basalamah Alley lot,
those three buildings façade are kept as their origin,
assumed built about 1920s – 1930s. By observing
the façade and roof style carefully, the building has
gone through the process of being restored.
Mr. Lin has the idealism to preserve historical
heritage by establishing an art-house (Sarasvati Art
House) in Bandung while together intending to make
that area (Jendral Sudirman Street) as one of the
unique identities of Bandung (https://sarasvati.co.id/
roemah-seni-sarasvati/background/ accessed on July
12, 2020). He said many people understand the
meaning of buildings only as inanimate objects,
whereas since the building was designed, we see the
journey of human life in it (https://www.dunia
lingga.com/2013/05/menelusuri-jejak-art-deco-di-ba
ndung.html accessed on July 12, 2020). His
inspiration to get involved with passion in
preservation of cultural heritages is from Lu Xun
(1881 –1936) a Chinese writer: “Hope is like a path
across the land, it is not there to begin with, but when
lots of people go the same way, it comes into being”.
Mr. Lin said, the preservation Mr. Lin said that very
few people have preserved Chinese cultural buildings.
Preservation can be started from him, so that other
people will see and also participate in preserving it. In
the year 2013, Mr. Lin became CEO of PT
Pembangunan Kota Tua Jakarta (Jakarta Old Town
Development) who took the revitalization of buildings
in Jakarta Old City area which at that time Jakarta
Governor was Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok).
Lin Che Wei house is a representation of the
Indonesian Chinese House which still exists, where
most Chinese houses in Bandung have undergone
very drastic changes and no longer gives the
impression of Chinatown (Kusteja, 2012). The
construction of modern Chinese houses after 1990
caused the depletion of traditional Chinese elements
in architecture (Hadinoto, 2007). The house is still
maintained, and has been restored with a mature
concept by Mr. Lin as a cultural observer, and has
been realized in revitalizing the Old City of Jakarta
and Gedung Pensil Bandung. This building itself is
very important because it is on the West Groote
Postweg Line (Jalan Raya Barat/Jalan Jendral
Sudirman) and within the Jamika Industrial Estate
area. Only people with certain positions or certain
economies could own a house in the center of the
main route during the Dutch colonial period. Groote
Postweg is the main highway for the economic
interests of Java Island which was built in 2 years by
the Dutch General Governor (Daendels) (William,
1979: 1-29).
3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
David G. Khol (1984: 22), wrote in the book
"Chinese Architecture in The Straits Settlements and
Western Malaya”, provides a kind of guidance, how
to see the characteristics of Chinese architecture that
exist, especially in Southeast Asia. These are some
characteristics of Chinese Architecture in the
Chinatown area until prior of 1900:
1. courtyard
2. emphasis on a distinctive roof shape open
structural elements (which are sometimes
3. accompanied with decorative ornaments)
4. use of distinctive colors
Although Mr. Lin renovated based on his
personal experience, in fact, the characteristics of
Chinese houses as referenced by Knapp was
unwittingly restored by Mr.Lin.
The existing theories provide the characteristics
of houses before 1990; there is a theoretical gap for
researchers to analyze the characteristics of Chinese
contemporary houses after 1990. Through the
discussion of this case study, it is suggested for
further research on Chinese contemporary houses to
use the following characteristic criteria:
1. courtyard
2. distinctive roof shape
3. Chinese decorative ornaments
4. local / global culture ornaments
5. distinctive colors

3.1 Courtyard
Figure 4: Courtyard.
The courtyard has some benches, sometimes the
owner runs movies on the white screen, which
covers the red bricks end wall for the shows, and
sometimes he likes to have tea in this area. The front
building (left side) is still preserved as built before.
The right side building is totally rebuilt with new
construction; the designer was the late Ir. Ahmad
Djuhara. The roof ending has a different style
compared with the front side (diverge with
traditional custom).
3.2 Roof Shape
On renovated gable walls Mr. Lin restored the
specific design at the peak and at two sloping sides
with curls ends as previous. Those styles are not
copied from any typical Chinese traditional style.
But in general, those decorated parts and sloping
ridge at two ends are in general similar to South
China’s traditional architecture styles. It is a
reinterpretation of traditional customs by previous
developer.

2 ends of gable sloping, finished with curls.

details.
Figure 7: The ending roof ridge is sloping up at both ends,
similar with traditional Southern China typical ridge
architecture. Here the sloping is with corner and straight
line, while the traditional style is smooth arc without any
sharp bent.

Mr. Lin’s father, intended as Chinese geomancy (feng shui

3.3 Decorative Ornaments
The one focal point within three buildings; is the set
of 18 units of wooden lattice panels at the hall
building which are distinctively showing his passion
with Chinese culture style crafts. For the panels area
he made a serial design for each of them. Patiently
Mr. Lin ordered the craft artisans to produce specific
complicated double faces – a copy of the same
sculpture on both sides for each panel. Every panel
decorated with “The three kingdoms” (san guo yan
yi三国演义) episodes, to remember his childhood,
the story that he loved to read when he was young.
They took 4 years to finish the complete series with
3 sets of complete panels.
Figure 9: Set of 18 wooden lattice panels at the hall
building.
Some wooden crafted ornament units on the wall
as ventilation openings (crafted with “The three
kingdoms'' episodes), at the balcony railings they
show intricate Chinese traditional patterns, some
railing with Chinese object crafted emblem with
figures of The Gods (Fu Lu Shou 福禄寿).

八吉祥).

trellis, decorated with The Three Kingdoms episodes.

balcony facing the street in front.
Mr Lin is very serious about preserving Chinese
culture. He has an in-house workshop with
permanent crafter artisans. He looked for crafter
artisans from Jepara, Central Java, the center of a
famous wood craftsmen artisan area, and was
employed in his private workshop. Expensive wood
chunks carved manually by craftsmen.

3.4 Local/Global Culture Ornaments
The furniture collections inside building number 6
and 8 have some antique Chinese styles, mixed with
some articles related to Mr. Lin’s parents, as his
reminder of his younger time while living in that
home. Some of this furniture is called “Yankee
styles” (Indonesian: “Model Jengkee”) which is
popular during 1950s. Some of those Chinese styles
antique were collected from China when he was
travelling there.
Inside the building number 4, there is plenty of
amazing Balinese sculpture collections, especially
those created from naturally unique bending wooden
trunks. There are some Chinese styles of antique
furniture such as an old cabinet and a traditional
Chinese canopy bed which were imported from
China. The other furniture collections are from
mixed styles: modern, Yankees, and antique
European style (chairs, writing cabinet).
Figure 15: Balinese wooden sculptures collection.
3.5 Color
Chinese people really like the color red or vermilion,
because it symbolizes luck and joy, they use it a lot
on Chinese New Year or special occasions. Many
ancient royal buildings used this color. For the
facade of Mr. Lin’s house, he used red (maroon)
with yellow stripes, but not because it symbolizes
Figure 16: doors’ color.
luck. According to him, he is copying the color of
his daughter’s “The Nanyang Primary School” in
Singapore. For him, school (Nanyang Primary
Schoola) as the first place people (his daughter)
study Chinese culture and Chinese language. He
uses this color to remind him that people have to dig
their own root. The original color was green Tosca
(see bedroom photo).

4 CONCLUSIONS
This research focused on one current Indonesian
Chinese peranakan dwelling. Similar study related
to peranakan Chinese houses most researches will
refer to Dutch colonial era heritage buildings with
Indische Empires styles expansive mansions, with
the extravagance of Chinese traditional symbolic
elements on them. The styles and details are
repetitively like using a fixed template. The
furnishings usually are specific custom made as a
complete set for each manor, with complicated
ornaments related to Chinese culture.
With this case study, the conclusions are the
contemporary owner (Chinese peranakan) has wider
national and overseas vocabulary references, the
building was renovated to suit the owner's taste with
his private reinterpretation of traditional culture and
style into an eclectic architectural style. Although
the owner is a very keen observer of Chinese
traditional culture, from private discussion; shows
his interest in Chinese classical literature, Chinese
music instruments, calligraphy, Chinese traditional
poems, Chinese painting, and the family owns a
traditional Chinese tea cafe in Jakarta at Glodok

Pecinan Area, but the furnishing and collections are
multicultural.
Revitalize is to evoke memories of the past /
recall the past. The owner has wide interest in
cultural vocabulary (local, Chinese, other nations)
that influence his style choice for collections
(modern furniture, European classic furniture,
Balinese sculptures, Javanese handcrafts). His
passions in Chinese traditional culture are shown on
the detailed design of hand carved wooden lattice
folding panels. He collected Chinese antiques
furniture, applying Chinese traditional patterns and
folklore on building ornaments. He did not try to
copy the characteristics of Chinese houses from the
past (such as literature write about Chinese 4 side
courtyard (siheyuan 四合院), traditional curved
roofs, dragon decorations, Chinese red yellow color,
as red luck of Chinese Culture) but rearranged
Chinese-ness based on his experience as Chinese
living in Indonesia (his favorite “Three Kingdom”
comics during his childhood, Red Lantern Film),
with Indonesian culture and insight into global
culture.
