Abstract
Rumah kampung, or Malay house, exemplifies the richness and insight of traditional buildings,
sharing a home with people, and living in peace with nature. The typical Malay home is a building
elevated on stilts high above the ground, covered with thatch roofs, encased with wooden walls, and
pierced with windows and lattices in its most basic form. Due to the increasing interest in cultural
heritage as a driving force of socio-economic development, many initiatives involving its
preservation, conservation, restoration, and dissemination are undertaken throughout the globe.
Conservation entails taking physical steps to preserve the fabric and elements of heritage buildings. It
is a method of preventing deterioration from extending the life of buildings. According to the
conservation concept, building conservation should maintain as much of the original building
structure and fabric as feasible. Heritage buildings are now conserved based on historical and cultural
considerations, and the cultural value of the architecture of historic buildings is slowly appreciated.
The techniques, methods, and materials used to build and construct the buildings are the primary
concern in conservation projects. This paper aims to investigate the current conservation process using
the digitalization approach to document Negeri Sembilan Traditional Malay House. Data collection
provides a literature review, whereby the current conservation process for cases in Malaysia and
various countries will be reviewed. Content analysis was utilized to analyze the results. The findings
of this paper provide helpful information regarding the potential development of digitalization based
on the conservation process to be used further in the future traditional conservation building.
