The research objective is to explore ethnomatematic forms in the remote areas. The research was conducted in the Karimunjawa Islands, Jepara Regency. Data were collected using observation and interview methods. The observations were focused on the existing house buildings on Karimunjawa and Kemujan Islands. Data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the houses built by the Bugis who live on the island of Kemujan were very ethno-mathematical. The structure of the house on stilts contains the concept of symmetry. Window and door accessories contain various concept shapes.
