Typology is the scientific study of different types of houses, focusing on the variations in their structural elements. The Jengki architectural typology is intricately linked to the examination of the constituent elements that comprise the architectural structure of a building. These elements are the tiniest building blocks that can recognize the structure and shape of a system, and they undergo the process of forming a combination and reducing in size. Jengki architecture is characterized using geometric elements, specifically triangles and rectangles, known as Yangke in architectural terminology. This style gained popularity in Jakarta and West Java during the 1950s and 1960s, when American individuals constructed houses using Jengki architecture, which were designed by Aanemer. A distinguishing feature of Jengki architecture is its unique roof design, setting it apart from other types of dwellings. This study specifically examines the Jengki architectural roof type. This study aims to identify the specific attributes of Jengki architecture exhibited in individual houses. The employed methodology is content analysis, incorporating elements of rationality, to examine the form of the Jengki architectural roof both synchronically and diachronically. The outcome is a categorization of Jengki architectural roofing, utilizing certain element criteria, which has significantly enhanced our understanding of Indonesian architectural history.
