Abstract

The Cirebon Palace and Chinatown areas possess a wealth of cultural iconography that represents the acculturation of various traditions. However, its use in the design of heritage area landmarks tends to be visual rather than grounded in systematic design principles. This study aims to formulate design principles for heritage-area landmarks by translating cultural iconography into design knowledge. The study employed a qualitative approach based on design research through literature review, field observations, visual documentation, and focused discussions with stakeholders. Analysis was conducted through the identification, interpretation, and synthesis of cultural iconography into design principles. The research results yielded five principles: regional legibility, symbolic transformation, contextual identity, visual acculturation, and contemporary adaptation. These principles were then implemented in the design of the Ariodinoto Street Monument, the Chinatown Gate, and the Pulasaren Street Landmark. This research contributes by offering a conceptual framework that bridges cultural values ​​with design decisions, thus making it applicable to landmark design in other heritage areas.
