Malay traditional house

Malay architecture is greatly affected by climate and weather. Hence, the traditional Malay houses are almost always raised on timber stilts or pile to elevate and protect the building from floods and also serve as a source of natural ventilation. No nails are ever used in a traditional Malay house as pre-cut holes and grooves were used to fit the timber together. Roofs of these houses are typically steep and have wide overhangs for shading and protection from tropical downpours.

There are usually 2 parts to a traditional Malay house: the main house (Rumah Ibu) and the kitchen annex (Rumah Dapur). The Rumah Dapur is separated from the Rumah Ibu for fire protection as the bulk of the buildings are made from timber. One or more verandas (Serambi) are attached to the Rumah Ibu for seated work, relaxation, or where non-familiar visitors would be entertained, thus preserving the privacy of the interior

What's the Malay house It is difficult to define what the Malay house is. This is

due to the meaning of the word "Malay," which is not clear. Legally, Malay is defined as "a person who

professes the Muslim religion, speaks the Malay language, conforms to Malay

customs. . If a Malay house is a house that is owned or lived in by this person, then this definition does not hold

true, because there are many instances when these houses are not lived in or owned by a person so de-

fined. Therefore, it is difficult to legally define a Malay house.

Malay is also defineda as "a member of the people of the Malay peninsula, Eastern Sumatra, and some adjacent islands. By this definition, many ethnic groups such as Achehnese, Batak, Bugis, Kerinci, Minangkabau, Rawa

and Mandiling are included. These people have developed their own distinct house types, therefore

making it even more difficult to define a so-called Malay house.

Maybe it is erroneous to assume a single meaning for the term Malay house. Nevertheless, this study assumes a definition generally accepted by authors dealing with

this subject, both for the sake of simplicity and operational use.

From this assumption and based on the different groups of people who had immigrated and settled in the different states in Peninsular Malaysia, the Malay

The Malay house is divided into areas, rather than rooms, for various social and household activities.Malay house styles, particularly the design of the roof, vary from state to state in Peninsular Malaysia, but the basic house form and construction methods are similar. In the tradition of vernacular houses, the Malay house is not professionally designed but has evolved over a period of time using readily available local materials, which suited the local climatic and environmental conditions. The design of the house has also been dictated by the social mores of the Malays, such as the provision of a private space for the womenfolk and a public space for the entertaining of male guests, because the Malay house is always considered a unit of a larger community in the village.

The basic Malay house

Malay house .may be divided into three types: Malacca-Negeri Sembilan, Kelantan- Trengganu, and Johore-Selangor-Perak. 14 It is not the aim here to define or ex- pound each of these types, but be it sufficient to say that there are indeed distinct differences in the treatment of these houses which make such a categori- zation useful and necessary. It is also understood that within each category, a differentiation can be made between the houses so as to require further classi- fication. 15 Nevertheless, for the

TYPES FOR MALAY HOUSE

Traditional Malay ‘Kampong’The unplanned arrangement of Malay houses indirectly helps to reduce the risk of strong winds where settlements along coastal areas experience higher wind speed than inland regions (Hanafi, 1994). The characters of a Malay kampong are detached, and dispersed units with ample external spaces between them to allow fresh air circulation (Hanafi, 1994). However, the patterns of a traditional Malay kampong, which have similarities to villages in Indonesia, can be described in two main types of spatial arrangement: linear and concentric (Tjahjono, 2003). Figure 14 shows the linear and concentric settlement patterns of a Malay ‘kampong’. For a linear pattern, houses face the economic resources and transportation links such as roads, rivers or beaches; in a concentric pattern, the serambi usually faces the public space located at the centre of the houses.

In Malay house compounds, crop-bearing trees such as coconut trees and high- branched fruity trees are planted (Yuan, 1987: 92; Hanafi, 1994). These trees have various functions, such as to indicate individual boundaries, provide fruits, and shade the pedestrian walkways (Figure 15). The open space compounds of a traditional Malay kampong can encourage social interaction within neighborhoods (Yuan, 1987: 93). For religious reasons, most traditional Malay houses are oriented to face Mecca (east-west direction), which indirectly minimizes the area of exposed walls to direct solar radiation during the day (Yuan, 2011).

The Malay house: Materials and constructionThe traditional Malay house relies for its strength on a complex jointing system made rigid by the use of timber wedges. This allows the house to be easily taken apart and reassembled elsewhere.The traditional Malay house is primarily a timber structure, built off the ground using the post-and-beam method by local carpenters or by the owners themselves. Its walls are usually made of timber, although bamboo is still used in certain areas. Numerous full-length windows line the walls, providing both ventilation and a view outside. The high-pitched, gabled roof, which dominates the house, was traditionally covered with thatch but is now more often covered with galvanized iron.
