| description | Woodcarving is considered an integral component of the vernacular Malay houses of Kelantan
and Terengganu which are located in the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Carved components
with various features were fabricated according to its placement and configuration in the interior
as well as exterior setting of the houses. This paper presents an analytical study of the visual
forms and placement of carved components in the timber houses of Kelantan and Terengganu
which reflects its significant attributes and uses. An analytical study on ten houses in Kelantan
and five houses in Terengganu was conducted by visual descriptive and interpretative analyses
on 15 sets of reports and carving, measured drawings of the houses which were obtained from the
Centre for the Study of Built Environment in the Malay World (KALAM) at the Department of
Architecture in the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). The method of analysis was triangulated
and validated with interpretations from the prominent woodcarvers on art and crafts of
woodcarving, and supported by literature of Malay woodcarving, The analysis revealed that
several types of carved components with distinctive features including wall, door and window
ventilation panels, roof and gate panels, railings and stringers were fitted in harmonious relationship
with the architectural components within the house fabrics. The placement of these components
with the specific carving motifs, shapes, sizes and layouts in the houses reflects certain orders
and regional identity of the Kelantan and Terengganu traditional houses. |
