Abstract
Apartment with compound buildings require good connectivity and energy efficiency. Both elements are needed for function optimalization. the Apartment design in certain locations requires comprehensive field data. In the pandemic situation, the difficulty of conducting field trips can be solved through digital surveys. This paper aims to show the process of implementing connectivity & energy efficiency in the apartments design that are done digitally. The descriptive qualitative method is used for this research. The case is an apartment area in Bekasi. the variables consist of layout, lighting, and water filtration. The results showed that the application of connectivity & energy efficiency in the Apartment Area is through a centralized open space as a buildings link as well as a place for water catchment, the Treated Water Tanks placement in each building, and the secondary skin design especially for the area that exposed directly to the sun.
