The design of the Vice President's Palace adopts the concept of "Huma Betang Umai", which means "Mother Longhouse" in Dayak culture. This concept reinterprets the longhouse of the Dayak people into a contemporary and sustainable palace.

Contractor and Project Implementer

This project is implemented by PT Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk in collaboration with Penta Architecture in the form of Joint Operations (KSO). The first phase of construction budget reached IDR 1.45 trillion, which was financed through the State Budget (APBN).

Facilities and Security

The Vice Presidential Palace Complex includes:

• Office of the Vice President

• Official residence

• Office of the Vice President's Secretariat

• Presidential Security Forces (Paspampres) Dormitory

To ensure security, this building is equipped with bulletproof glass and other sophisticated security systems.
