Abstract

Place attachment is a state in which an individual feels attached to a place due to repeated positive attractions and interactions. The increasing existence of coffee shops is becoming a new lifestyle trend today. The ability of public spaces to attract the attention of visitors to be comfortable and at home can be seen from the attractiveness factor. The attraction factor consists of two categories, namely places and events. The category of places is described in the attractiveness of design and comfort, while the category of events is described in the activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the place attachments to coffee shops. The research method used is a mixed method with 100 questionnaires to coffee shop visitors and field observations. The research was analyzed using descriptive methods. The result shows that tables and chairs are interior elements that are the attraction of the design, the cozy and intimate atmosphere is a factor in visitor comfort, and the activities that are liked and often done in coffee shops are drinking coffee, socializing/hanging out, and studying/working.

Abstract

Medan is the largest city on Sumatera Island and the capital city of North Sumatera. The main tourist attractions are in the downtown area, which is located in the Kesawan corridor, around Lapangan Merdeka, Maimun Palace, and the Al Mashun Grand Mosque. However, there is still no adequate walking environment that connects those areas which resulting in very little walking activity. This research aims to to assess the current condition of the walking environment and develop a design model in order to enhance walkability in the historic tourism areas of Medan. The authors undertake a field survey as well as collect the pedestrians preference regarding the walkway. The final walkability score of the research locations are 58,8. The authors proposed five model recommendation to improve the walkway in the research locations, namely: (1) Walkway amenities improvement; (2) CPTED design application in the walkway; (3) Implementation of pelican crossing; (4) Signage and speed bump application; and (5) Ramp and S portal barrier application. The authors believed the proposed model recommendations are sufficient to enhance the walkability in the research locations.
