    The "perahu" also known as boat is used by the Malay community during the Holocene period when rising of sea levels alters the Malay world and become an island and peninsula. The "perahu" becomes important not only as a navigational tool but serves as a shelter during the movement. As sailing is a part of Malay way of life, many “perahu” manifestations are often being seen in housing construction. The objectives of this paper are to outline the features of “perahu” used around Negeri Sembilan traditional house - architecture with “kajang perahu” analogy – and to raise questions on what are the similarity terminology between “perahu” and house. The questions look through literature review analysis and to identify on which elements and components are related to the house.

    ABSTRACT

    The "perahu" also known as boat is used by the Malay community during the Holocene
    period when rising of sea levels alters the Malay world and become an island and peninsula.
    The "perahu" becomes important not only as a navigational tool but serves as a shelter during
    the movement. As sailing is a part of Malay way of life, many perahu manifestations are
    often being seen in housing construction. The objectives of this paper are to outline the
    features of perahu used around Negeri Sembilan traditional house - architecture with
    kajang perahu analogy and to raise questions on what are the similarity terminology
    between perahu and house. The questions look through literature review analysis and to
    identify on which elements and components are related to the house.
