Abstract

This is preliminary paper regarding the process of designing a new Chinese religious building of Tridharma concept in Kintamani village, Bangli Regency, Bali, 80652. A small Chinese community in that area came up with the idea long time ago, but the actual planning started around 2023. As a self-sustain community, they try their best to come up with the architectural planning, with Chinese traditional religious building concept in general. One of the main problems so far, they need to know if the planning they made is according to the design standard requirement and have ample Chinese characteristic, with bits of local Balinese multicultural visuals endeavors to prevent alienation from the surrounding region. The research aims to provide consultation in meeting the maximum above criteria regarding the construction. The main architect is a local Chinese Balinese and a self-taught man that needs specific guidance in this type of building. Researchers use general interior design methods of D. K. Ching: Analyze, Synthesize, and Evaluate to research and provide necessary consultation based on the criteria needed. The improvements made in three main areas of design: safety, comfort, and aesthetics. The result will be tested in the real construction and visitors later; the most important, this place will be one source of happiness and embodiment of their unique spiritual belief and mutual religious tolerance among the majority Hinduism believers in Bali.
