Abstract

The Spatial Configuration of Street Food on Jalan Darussalam, Banda Sakti District, Lhokseumawe City: A Qualitative Study The street food corridor of Jalan Darussalam, located in Banda Sakti District, Lhokseumawe City, is one of the main roads with a strategic role in the activities of the local community. This road serves as a hub for economic and social activities, featuring various businesses such as shops, stalls, and street food vendors lining its sides.The purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing the spatial physical setting of street food establishments in the urban space of Jalan Darussalam, Banda Sakti District, Lhokseumawe City. Through field observations and interviews with street food vendors, consumers, and local residents, the study reveals that adequate infrastructure enhances the attractiveness of the street food area, increases vendors’ incomes, and supports food security and community welfare. This study employs a qualitative method with a behavior mapping approach. The findings highlight spatial variables such as location, distance, proximity, adjacency, and territoriality. Street food tends to concentrate in strategic locations with high accessibility, such as city centers, market areas, and major transportation routes. The spatial patterns, including the distance between vendors and their proximity to supporting facilities like terminals, offices, and residential areas, form a spatial network that contributes to economic and social activities. The adjacency of vendors creates clusters that serve as an added attraction for consumers. From a territorial perspective, street food connects various urban space functions but also has the potential to generate conflicts over space usage, particularly in densely populated areas.

Abstract

Langkat Regency, as one of the regions with strong Malay cultural roots in North Sumatra, shows its cultural existence through various aspects, including building architecture. One of the prominent buildings that represents Malay culture in Langkat is the Indonesian Malay Cultural Council (MABMI) Building. This building was established as a center for Malay cultural and customary activities, so it is inherently expected to display visual characteristics that reflect Malay identity and values. This building is an important representation of Malay cultural identity in the region. This study aims to identify the symbolic meaning and visual form of Malay decorative motifs applied to the Indonesian Malay Cultural Council (MABMI) Building in Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through direct observation, visual documentation, and interviews with local cultural sources. The results of the study show that the decorative motifs used are dominated by floral motifs such as bamboo shoots, tendrils, and lotus flowers, as well as geometric ornaments that reflect the principles of balance and harmony in Malay culture. The meaning contained in the motif reflects religious values, morality, and the harmonious relationship between humans and nature and the Creator. In conclusion, the decorative motifs in the MABMI Langkat Building not only function as aesthetic elements, but also as a medium for preserving Malay cultural values ​​that are full of philosophical meaning.
