Dusun Banaran is a hamlet located in the suburb of the Semarang City, Central Java, Indonosia. It’s also located around the campus of Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES). Rural characteristics are still firmly attached to the lives of residents of settlements where most of them have Javanese kinship ties. The strength of tradition since Dusun Banaran that existed around the 17th century has formed local wisdom that remains sustainable to this day. The spatial phenomenon in settlements shows an indication of strong kinship ties, namely the formation of clusters of relatives’ spaces. This is a unique and interesting phenomenon. This study examines the relationship between these spaces and the lives of relatives. The study uses a phenomenological approach to research. The findings demonstrate the existence of a significant relative's space, a unique phenomena, which is a space to accommodate various activities of relatives in social, cultural and economic nature. © (2023).
