TualakaDepartment of Achitecure, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Universitas Nusa Cendana, Indonesia*Corresponding author: ihardy@staf.undana.ac.idAbstractLevo Lamalera, a coastal settlement in Lembata Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, presents a distinct spatial organization shaped by tradition and geographic conditions. This study identifies and maps the functional zoning within the village, focusing on four key areas: big houses, peledang (whaling boat) houses, fishermen%u2019s residences, and public facilities. Each zone serves specific social, economic, and cultural roles within the community. The zoning reflects the community%u2019s adaptation to its coastal environment and highlights the integration of vernacular architecture with everyday life. This poster aims to visualize the spatial logic of Levo Lamalera%u2019s settlement without delving into ritual or symbolic dimensions, offering a concise representation of how traditional coastal societies organize their living spaces.Keywords: settlement, spatial zoning, typology, whaling culture, lamalera.
