<![CDATA[Meningkatnya jumlah penduduk lanjut usia di Indonesia berdampak pada meningkatnya prevalensi penyakit Alzheimer yang menyebabkan penurunan fungsi kognitif, gangguan memori, dan disorientasi spasial. Kabupaten Malang belum memiliki fasilitas rehabilitasi khusus yang mampu mengakomodasi kebutuhan fisik, psikologis, sosial, dan kognitif lansia dengan Alzheimer. Penelitian ini bertujuan menghasilkan rancangan Pusat Rehabilitasi Lansia Alzheimer dengan pendekatan Age-friendly Built Environment di Kabupaten Malang. Metode perancangan menggunakan pendekatan rasionalisme melalui studi preseden sebagai dasar penyusunan konsep dan strategi desain berdasarkan prinsip Age-friendly Built Environment. Hasil perancangan menerapkan sirkulasi yang sederhana, sistem wayfinding yang jelas, optimalisasi pencahayaan alami, integrasi ruang terbuka hijau dan healing garden, serta penyediaan ruang rehabilitasi medis, terapi, aktivitas harian, dan ruang komunal yang saling terhubung. Penerapan prinsip-prinsip tersebut diharapkan mampu meningkatkan orientasi spasial, mendukung proses rehabilitasi, serta menciptakan lingkungan yang aman, nyaman, dan ramah bagi lansia dengan Alzheimer. Rancangan ini diharapkan menjadi referensi pengembangan fasilitas rehabilitasi lansia berbasis Age-friendly Built Environment di Indonesia. Kata kunci: Pusat Rehabilitasi Lansia, Alzheimer, Age-friendly Built Environment, Healing Environment The increasing elderly population in Indonesia has contributed to a growing prevalence of Alzheimer's disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, memory impairment, and spatial disorientation. Malang Regency currently lacks a specialized rehabilitation facility capable of addressing the physical, psychological, social, and cognitive needs of older adults living with Alzheimer's disease. This study aims to develop the design of an Alzheimer's Elderly Rehabilitation Center by applying the Age-friendly Built Environment approach in Malang Regency. The design employs a rationalist method through precedent studies to formulate design concepts and strategies based on the principles of an Age-friendly Built Environment. The proposed design incorporates a simple and intuitive circulation system, clear wayfinding, optimized natural lighting, the integration of green open spaces and healing gardens, and interconnected medical rehabilitation, therapy, daily activity, and communal spaces. These design principles are expected to enhance spatial orientation, support the rehabilitation process, and create a safe, comfortable, and age-friendly environment for older adults with Alzheimer's disease. The proposed design is expected to serve as a reference for the development of elderly rehabilitation facilities based on the Age-friendly Built Environment approach in Indonesia.
