Abstract
Vernacular architecture is a type of architecture attaching to a certain community and reflecting its culture. The process of constructing vernacular architecture is highly influenced by the local tradition and customs, and this knowledge is handed through generations. Therefore, vernacular architecture is very different from one region to another. This paper will explore vernacular houses of Central Java which attach not only to the Javanese tradition,but also to the Javanese culture. The Javanese vernacular architecure has a long established and unique cultural identity that shows all aspects of the community. For instance, the roof types symbolize particular ranks in the society, and the layout of the house and the orientation of the house portray the concept of both micro and macro cosmos. Furthermore, the process and material for building houses, dominated by timber/wood, also indicate the local wisdom of Javanese community towards the interaction with its nature. Finally, it can be said that the picture of Javanese world has been expressed through the Javanese vernacular archirecture.
