Exploring the Village of Pinggan Several Viewpoints of Indigenous Settlement in Kintamani

Bangli Regency is rich with ancient villages, besides Penglipuran which is located in Bangli Subdistrict, there are still many other ancient villages that are loaded with uniqueness. Villages which are generally the culture of Bali Aga or Bali Mula are quite widely spread in the Kintamani area. Around the cool aired area, there are also many ancient remains that give a picture of the life of Balinese people in the past. One of the ancient villages that is quite important in the Kintamani area is the Pinggan Village, which has its own characteristics in its culture and architectural form. The high topography (mountainous area) gives cool and cold air an effect on spatial patterns, space functions and the embodiment of building shapes. This can be seen in the presence of the kitchen fused with the bed, to provide a sense of warmth and comfort. Natural materials such as wood and bamboo which are widely found in the village environment are the main ingredients in building construction. Use of these natural ingredients affect the structure, while the structure will affect the appearance of its architectural form. The birth of form embodiment is not only based on natural conditions, structures and materials, but there is an accompanying social-cultural process.
