Dynamic Vista of Sustainable Green Public Spaces Network in Wonosobo

Regional development always stimulates urbanization, growing demographic and generating needs of housing. In Kampung Sruni, an urban kampung settlement in Wonosobo Regency, Indonesia, people built new houses on the lands which are the remaining green pockets amidst the settlement. In addition, green space area aimed to maintain ecosystem balance are absent within the new house planning. The challenge of designing green space in built settlement is the availability of land which is many in quantity, scattered and relatively small in size. On the other hand, this kampung has been designated as urban tourism destinations in Wonosobo, promoting people, socio-cultural activities and the green valley landscape setting. This paper offers alternative architectural perspective to design green public space which engages community, culture and urban kampung landscape fabric. Together with inhabitants as local community, strategy to replenish the degrading green spaces was done by creating sustainable design for inhabitant’s current and future need, environment and tourism. Interestingly, beside the main function as green public space, the spatial component arrangement of the designs creates various types of vista offering view of man-made, man-made and nature, and fully nature landscape. Moreover, topography along this green public spaces network would generate observer’s body a motorically spatial experience
