碩士 / 國立成功大學 / 都市計劃學系 / 102 / The concern of “living with water” raises increasing attention due to potential disasters following by climate change and sea level rise. It is recognized that coastal community needs to adapt in order to moderate the harm or exploit beneficial opportunities resulting from changes in climate and other physical or socio-economic factors.
For organic-growth traditional settlement that was built by local resources and measure, it is important to consider people’s perception and capacity to implement adaptation policy. However, it is usually be neglected and leads to failure of policy. To identify the interrelation between local perception and spatial pattern, this study discusses how grassroots’ response to coastal environment reflects on spatial pattern development.
Water settlement is one of the traditional lifestyles in Malaysia. Partly due to illegal position in land use, the study of its space or/and adaptation to environment have received less attention and are limited in literature. And yet, these settlements are actually considered comparative high-risk exposed to sea level rise (Md. Din ＆ Mohd. Omar, 2009) or other coastal potential disasters (Chan, 1995) based on their location.
Using case study of Kukup water settlement (Kukup Laut Fishing Village and Ayer Masin Fishing Village) in Johor State, Malaysia, this study conducts field research and interviews to identify local perception to coastal environment in shaping settlement’s pattern. Applying to two designed phases, the result shows spatial pattern at community scale and building scale in order to identify the development and the causes. The study finds that spatial pattern has been facilitated to adapt to coastal environment. The everyday life experience, therefore, formed local perception; and the pattern represents the generation’s experience to live with water. To understanding local perception to coastal environment and its changes is essential to practice of any adaptation policy. Through a detailed investigation and analysis to spatial pattern, it is to provide appropriate reference for further spatial and/or adaptation studies of traditional water centric community with similar natural and man-made conditions.
