abstract = "This paper examines vernacular governance and spatial transformations of low-cost apartments (LCAs). LCAs are a plausible solution to housing shortages for the urban poor in cities that face constantly increasing land values and limited space. Although prohibited by law, various spatial transformations occur to meet immediate needs. This case study addresses the practice of vernacular governance in the spatial transformations of LCAs through the vernacularisation by nomotropism to meet residents{\textquoteright} needs and solve their problems without the government{\textquoteright}s complicated bureaucracy. Atomisation occurs from the neighbourhood to the molecular scale, among next-door neighbours and by creating multiple, distinctive vernacular governances on each LCA floor. This study offers a new perspective on housing policy in terms of distributing decision making to the community, thus creating flexible appropriation of space to meet residents{\textquoteright} ever-changing and immediate needs.",

note = "Funding Information: We would like to express gratitude to Directorate of Research and Community Engagement Universitas Indonesia (DRPM UI) for administering the Hibah Publikasi Artikel di Jurnal International Kuartil Q1 dan Q2 (Q1Q2) Tahun Anggaran 2019 scheme under grant number NKB-0305/UN2.R3.1/HKP.05.00/2019, and Faculty of Engineering Universitas Indonesia (FTUI), Departement of Architecture for their support in this research. Funding Information: Since the Dutch colonial era, Indonesian housing provisions have always been conducted by the national public housing company, which is financially supported by the central and local governments. This corporation then evolved into the National Housing Company (NHC) based on Government Act 29/1974 (Yudohusodo : 151), which has delivered landed housing and LCA provision programmes in several big cities since 1979 (Hutagalung : 17). Since then, NHC has built 493 blocks of LCAs in 31 different locations across Jakarta. LCA provisions were supported by various policies, such as the Apartment Act 16/1985 and the President Instruction 5/1990, to rejuvenate slum settlements built on state-owned land. This programme has since become a priority, as written in the National Long-Term Development Program 2005–2025, which is supported by LCA Act 16/1985 and President Decree 7/2005. The programme aims to build 60,000 rental LCA units and 25,000 owned LCA units for low-income people through public and private development partnerships (Alif ).
