Ya-Halwa batik showroom requires more representative of building shape, because the building site located in the main street and surrounded by conventional buildings. Because of that, the owners had order to architect to create the design that could be the pioneer of commercial buildings for the area around the site especially boutique building. One of the ways used by the designers is making a floating basic form with transparent and massive materials the facade of the building.
The principles of modern and functional design applied in this building, but local materials more used and minimize the use of the material fabric which is usually the hallmark of today's modern buildings. Elements of natural stone and wood are very dominant and give a great visual accent in this building.
In addition to the visual display, the concept of enviromentally friendly architecture also been applied by the architect. The first is the concept of ' recycle',one of which wood use , especially on the building facade using old timbers of the original building , especially the former roof truss . Likewise with the old wall dismantled, used to fill the soil so that there are variations in elevation of the floor in the building. The second is the maximum utilization of air circulation inside the building. At the rear of the building was deliberately made the roof open so air can enter and circulate a maximum in the building, to avoid rain water storage created that also serves as a swimming fish. Fish pond itself provides cool effects inside the room. With so expected use of air conditioning could be reduced to a minimum
