| Summary: | In learning activity processes in Islamic boarding schools, students must
study and live in a dormitory. It functions to replace a residential home where
the privacy aspect should be taken into consideration. This study aims to
observe the privacy aspects closely related to the female students'
bedrooms, covering six elements examined in five case studies, including the
sex-segregated dormitories, the main function of staying, visual privacy on
the dimensions & height of the windows, acoustic privacy, and olfactory
privacy in terms of the connection between dormitory rooms. It was found
that the privacy aspect in the dormitory room still lacked attention due to
the addition of space functions and bathroom facilities in it. Meanwhile,
adding personal facilities, such as storage and study areas, could enhance
the students' privacy. Especially for the type of student bedroom, it is
necessary to provide a place for drying clothes by utilizing the balcony area.
Besides that, it is required to pay attention to the type, dimensions &
direction of window openings so that the level of privacy of female students
will be more optimal.
