Abstract
This paper explores the concept of adaptability through a study of customization work on Indonesian multi-storey housing. Significant differences in interior plans and renovation, modification and customization methods in public rumah susun and private apartments enable small-scale post-occupancy adaptability using low-level industrialized building techniques. This study reveals the importance of the building system for enhancing building service life by differentiating building components according to users, decision control and customization method. The findings suggest two adaptability concepts for infill housing for rumah susun and apartments: adaptable design and affordable production.
