In recent years, there have been numerous slum settlements in Indonesia that were transformed into tourist villages established by creative movements with an artistic approach. As a prominent aspect of the Penta helix, online media is considered a fundamental role in publicizing creative campaigns. This research utilizes the content analysis method to know how a designated space surfaces from a creative movement - the urban design elements of a tourist village’s inauguration, visualized by the media. Analysis of three tourist villages reveals two distinct patterns of tourist village coverage by the media: attractive city design elements that encourage social activities (Kampung Dago Pojok) and the unique form and massing as its picturesque appeal (Kampung Warna-Warni & Kampung Pelangi). Observational data shows that the internet has influenced the fabrication of tourist villages supported by creative movements with various urban design approaches. DOI: https://doi.org/10.26905/lw.v13i1.5129
