Georgius Budi Yulianto, IAI, AA
President of Indonesian Institute of Architect (IAI)
ARCH:ID is proud to present sustainable architectural conference and exhibition in Indonesia. Successfully held for the first time in 2020, Indonesian Institute of Architects (IAI) and PT. Citra Inovasi Strategi Exhibition (C.I.S) will continue presenting quality and value-added Event to all stakeholders.
ARCH:ID is the right momentum for architects and designers to collaborate. We can also embrace all stakeholders in Indonesia's development to collaborate. As IAI vision and mission, there are Synergy - Responsive - Collaborative, it's time for IAI to work together with other associations.
ARCH:ID is a big event, which can present Indonesia's architecture. The large infrastructure is being built and we are a part of it. Hopefully, as the biggest architect’s event in Indonesia, ARCH:ID can trigger architects in Indonesia to be more advanced.
The advent and adoption of information technology – accelerated by covid pandemic – helps us to facilitate rapid communication and connection with fellow human beings. Information from around the world is easily accessible, allowing other cultures to easily influence ours. This influence is evident in what we eat, how we dress, what music we listen to, and how we behave as contemporary human beings, which have become increasingly global and homogeneous.
In the built environment industry, architectural works are also becoming increasingly similar. The rampant 'copy-paste' practice of the 'architectural language' – thanks to the internet – has obscured the cultural roots of the works, whereas ideally, it should project a distinct identity, representing a specific group of people, their thoughts, and their place and time.
Simultaneously, the covid pandemic has given us time to pause, reflect and allow us to ask the essential question:
Have we lost our identity? In exchange for being a part of the global society, have we lost our locality and uniqueness?
In Indonesia, as we put our efforts into developing the nation and building the new capital city – a representation of our national identity – we must dig deeper to understand the essence of our architectural and cultural identity to take proper steps toward the future of the built environment in Indonesia.
We invite all architects and broader communities – from Indonesia and beyond – to exchange ideas, question the state of our architectural and cultural identity, and learn from each other's uniqueness.
