<![CDATA[Universitas Darussalam Gontor Kampus Putri dalam masa perancangan perluasan kampus belum memiliki fasilitas yang mampu mengakomodasi kegiatan pertemuan berupa sebuah gendung Convention Center. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang Convention Center Universitas Darussalam Gontor Kampus Putri yang mampu mewadahi berbagai kegiatan akademik, kemahasiswaan, dan kegiatan umum melalui penerapan pendekatan Arsitektur Hemat Energi. Perancangan ini menggunakan metode desain pragmatis melalui tahapan identifikasi masalah, analisis, penyusunan kriteria desain, pengembangan alternatif, dan pemilihan desain terbaik. Pendekatan yang diterapkan adalah Arsitektur Hemat Energi dengan mengoptimalkan strategi desain pasif dan aktif. Strategi pasif meliputi orientasi bangunan, pemanfaatan pencahayaan dan ventilasi alami, penggunaan secondary skin, serta pemilihan material yang mendukung kenyamanan termal. Strategi aktif diterapkan melalui penggunaan sistem utilitas hemat energi, panel surya sebagai sumber energi alternatif, dan system rainwater harvesting untuk meningkatkan efisiensi penggunaan air. Hasil perancangan berupa Convention Center yang memiliki hall multifungsi beserta fasilitas pendukung yang mampu mengakomodasi berbagai kegiatan kampus secara optimal. Penerapan pendekatan Arsitektur Hemat Energi menghasilkan bangunan yang lebih efisien dalam penggunaan energi dan sumber daya, nyaman bagi pengguna, serta mendukung pengembangan fasilitas Universitas Darussalam Gontor Kampus Putri. Kata kunci: Convention Center, Arsitektur Hemat Energi, Desain Pragmatis, Efisiensi Energi Universitas Darussalam Gontor Women's Campus, which is currently undergoing campus expansion, does not yet have a convention center capable of accommodating large-scale meeting and event activities. This study aims to design a Convention Center for Universitas Darussalam Gontor Women's Campus that can support various academic, student, and public activities through the application of an Energy-Efficient Architecture approach. The design employs a pragmatic design method consisting of problem identification, analysis, formulation of design criteria, development of design alternatives, and selection of the most appropriate design. The Energy-Efficient Architecture approach is implemented through the optimization of passive and active design strategies. Passive strategies include appropriate building orientation, natural lighting and ventilation, the use of a secondary skin, and the selection of materials that enhance thermal comfort. Active strategies involve the application of energy-efficient utility systems, solar panels as an alternative energy source, and a rainwater harvesting system to improve water-use efficiency. The resulting design is a Convention Center featuring a multifunctional hall and supporting facilities capable of accommodating various campus activities effectively. The implementation of the Energy-Efficient Architecture approach produces a building that is more efficient in energy and resource consumption, provides greater user comfort, and supports the development of facilities at Universitas Darussalam Gontor Women's Campus.
