Abstract

This study discusses about the role of hybridity and the meaning of space in Santa Maria De Fatima Catholic Church associated with six of seven Catholicism Sacraments. The hybridity of this church is shown from three aspects; (1) its history that explain the changing from house of chinese kapitan to church building, (2) its architecture that implemented style of Chinese building, (3) implementation of Basilica Church type in spatial planning. The method of this study consists of three steps, namely collecting data, analyzing data, and interpreting data using proxemic theory. The purpose from this study is to find the meaning between space in main building based on five catholic ceremonies. The results show that hybridity is not only about fusion or social intercourse, but as an identity preservation. The study also finds that there is intermediate space which create between sacred and semi sacred space based on distance in space and catholic sacraments. Third proxemic theory shows there’s increasing level of sacredness in semi sacred space near sacred space.
