Bayan Site Office is a corporate facility development commissioned by a leading coal mining company operating in a highly remote area of East Kalimantan. The project is initiated to address the client’s need for a representative and fully functional site office that can support the day-to-day administrative and managerial operations of the mining activities on site.
The office is envisioned as a modern, dynamic, and efficient workplace environment that reflects the company’s corporate values and reinforces its image as a forward-thinking and responsible mining enterprise. Beyond serving as a hub for operational administration, the site office will provide a setting that embodies professionalism, productivity, and corporate identity, despite the challenging remote context.
The architectural design takes inspiration from the traditional Dayak longhouse (Rumah Lamin), reinterpreted in a contemporary and functional manner. This approach not only creates a sense of cultural connection to East Kalimantan’s heritage but also provides a strong architectural identity that distinguishes the site office. The longhouse-inspired form symbolizes unity, resilience, and community, while the modern reinterpretation ensures efficiency, flexibility, and alignment with international corporate standards.
Through careful attention to spatial planning, technology integration, and cultural context, the Bayan Site Office will not only facilitate effective workflows and communication but also stand as a symbol of the company’s commitment to quality, innovation, and respect for local culture within the mining industry.
The Bayan Site Office is designed to address the unique challenges of its remote East Kalimantan location—delivering a self-reliant, efficient, and expressive facility that supports daily operations while reflecting the company’s strength and long-term commitment.
Inspired by the Dayak longhouse, the architecture reinterprets local heritage through an elongated form, elevated structure, and rhythmic elements—creating a modern building that feels culturally rooted without being literal.
Inside, the layout follows a clear central spine, improving circulation and communication across departments. Open, collaborative workspaces, ample natural light, and durable materials ensure comfort and performance in demanding site conditions.
The exterior expresses the company’s identity through clean lines, solid proportions, and natural textures, enhanced by subtle Dayak-inspired detailing. Landscaped courtyards soften the industrial context, providing moments of rest and connection with the surroundings.
Overall, the Bayan Site Office represents progress and respect—merging cultural heritage with modern functionality to establish a strong benchmark for future development in the mining region.
