This paper discusses the optimization of heat gain in vertical housing design for the middle-low economy, using rhino, grasshopper, and ladybug simulation. This study aims to explore a vertical housing design that minimizes heat gain, optimizes view, and increases wind speed. The methodology of this research is quantitative, through an experimental method, namely by making a geometry model according to field conditions in the math model (rhinoceros simulation), then simulating solar radiation gain (heat gain) through grasshopper & ladybug simulation. The research step: (1) to analyze microclimate and site context, (2) to make model design simulation-based on Kampong structure (horizontal housing), ( (4) to recommend geometric shapes for the most optimal vertical housing gain of solar radiation (heat gain). The results show that from the simulation of 3 models based on the kampong structure's geometry, the most optimal form is the shape that minimizes the orientation of East and West. Modular geometry is the L-shaped shape of the kampong structure module and each floor is laid out on each floor in the opposite direction, thus casting a shadow on each floor. The final form result also provides optimal views and increased wind speed that can dissipate heat.
