Bale Ajar is a manifesto of traditional learning space for local people in Bengkala, Bali. This project becomes communal space which accommodates human being to interact with society and nature. The Idea is transforming local wisdom into architectural form dominated by local material and creative craftsmanship in each process. Also, Bale Ajar is inspired by Tri Pramana as traditional philosophy that create a platform to strengthen social interaction in community. Bale Ajar have creative program on the ground floor and educative function on the upper floor. Both layouts are split by interactive corridor which connect first and second floor.
The building is consisted of three parts which represent human body (head, body, and legs). Local people believe that building is like human and they call those parts as utama angga (head), madya angga (body), and nistama angga (legs). We try to transform this belief become layout program. Head is represented by library where children can learn new things, body is translated as interactive corridor which connect head and legs, and legs is interpreted as creative space where people can do traditional events to celebrates diversity in their community. At the end, we implement traditional architecture such as knock-down structure and local patterns in Bale Ajar.
