  • Architecture of vernacular settlement is an interesting research topic since it expresses the culture and the local wisdom of its people. Until now knowledge about architecture of vernacular settlements is still marginalized from the discourses of philosophies, approaches and theories about settlement architecture in Indonesia. On the other sense, architecture of vernacular settlement phenomena is believed to have potentials to build local theories for conserving and preserving the old settlements and produce new settlements design which based on local wisdom that fit with local cultures and physical conditions and in line with sustainable architecture. This research is about architecture of vernacular settlement in socio-cultural contexts of Dawanese in Kaenbaun village of Timor island. The research was guided by Husserlian phenomenology paradigm. The objectives of the research are to reach indepth understanding about of Dawanese settlement culture in Kaenbaun village and to find the concepts and implicit theories which are used for designing the architecture of their settlement. The results of the research are indepth knowledge about Kaenbaunese socioculture and its settlement architecture, and the spatial formation theory as the base of their settlement design. Formation of Kaenbaun settlement architecture is based on four spiritual elements i.e. (1) sacred stone, (2) sacred water spring, (3) clan sacred house, and (4) catholic belief. Spatial formation of Kaenbaun settlement architecture is based on Kaenbaun unique clans formation that are supported by four specific concepts, i.e. (1) ethnical brotherhood concept, (2) unite of the ancestor within catholic church, (3) cultural diversity in unity, and (4) unite with nature. The four specific concepts generate local customs and used as guidance for spatial behavior of Kaenbaun people and as the base for their spatial formation of Kaenbaun settlement design. The Kaenbaun spatial formation theory is essentially based on the Kaenbaunese ideal values: ideal life is in union with God, ancestors, brothers and sisters, and nature in the universe. Based on that reason, the Kaenbaun spatial formation theory called socio-spiritual spatial theory because contains with social and spiritual substances.
