Abstract
This study aims to provide an understanding of the locality-based privacy of traditional Indonesian houses, which is in line with Islamic architecture values. This study reviews scientific papers about traditional Indonesian houses and summarizes the privacy establishment of each house. The result of the summary found that privacy in traditional Indonesian houses consists of physical and non-physical. Physical privacy comprises separator or divider; height adjustment for building elements; build layers of rooms as transitional space; clear division of zoning; selected wall material; and distinction entrance. In comparison, non-physical privacy involves spatial agreement and gender spatial that requires agreement space between men and women. This study is expectedly fruitful for the development of Islamic-based concept residence in the Indonesian real estate realm. © 2021, University of Malaya. All rights reserved.
