After a busy day, a massage or spa treatment is ideal. Traditional Malay Medicine treats chronic ailments. Some prefer traditional cures, and the Malay Spa Treatment has been passed down for generations. Herbs used in Malay Traditional Treatment alter activities and space design. Malaysian spas use urut (Malay massage), Ayurveda, and acupuncture. According to the previous researcher, Malaysian spas have no national signature. The Malay spa business is mainly in remote settlements in southern Malaysia and is not advertised or commercialized. Thus it is not publicized. It reduces awareness of the Malay Traditional Spa's interior design. This study has identified five design elements; doors, walls, ceiling, floors, and decorative Malay Motifs. The research investigates public awareness of Malay Traditional Spa Design in Malaysia's selected spa to see how much people know about traditional Spa Design in Malaysia and Malay traditional Spa design. This research aims to determine the existing Malay Traditional Spa's interior design features and the public's awareness of them. Rumah Hutan & Bonda Village, Batang Kali, Selangor, Malaysia, was studied to answer research questions and objectives. This research employed site observation and questionnaires. This research measures five (5) areas: the lobby area, waiting area, spa rooms, massage rooms, and premium spa rooms, as these areas are the focus area in a spa design. Findings from the case study show that the current Malay traditional spa very much instills the Malay traditional elements in their interior space. The entrance, floor, wall, ceiling, and stairs all feature traditional Malay designs. This study's findings could serve as a template for spa designers creating Malay spas. The researcher advised considering improved space design for a more practical staff and visitor flow. This will make visitors aware of Malay architectural elements. Malaysians should be gratified that our Malay traditional culture is still around for the next generation and is also essential to international tourists. 2022 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/89146/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/89146/1/89146.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (Kampus Puncak Alam) Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Surveying Abu Samah, Dr. Zanariah |
