<![CDATA[Kabupaten Wonogiri memiliki potensi perikanan air tawar yang melimpah di Waduk Gajah Mungkur, namun terkendala minimnya fasilitas pengolahan pascapanen terintegrasi. Hal ini menyebabkan hasil panen nelayan mayoritas dijual mentah dengan nilai ekonomi rendah. Selain itu, kawasan ini menghadapi kerentanan ekologis berupa fenomena upwelling yang kerap memicu kematian massal ikan, serta tren pariwisata massal yang kurang memperhatikan daya dukung lingkungan. Perancangan ini bertujuan menghadirkan Ekowisata Biota Akuatik yang mengintegrasikan fungsi produksi, pengolahan, komersial, dan rekreasi edukatif guna meningkatkan nilai tambah ekonomi komunitas lokal sekaligus melestarikan ekosistem perairan. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah Arsitektur Ekowisata dengan berpedoman pada komponen 4A pariwisata (Attraction, Accessibility, Amenities, Ancillary). Metode perancangan menggunakan Empirisisme melalui strategi desain sistematis yang berbasis observasi lapangan empirik pada objek-objek preseden. Hasil perancangan menghasilkan solusi arsitektural berupa zonasi terpadu antara hulu (keramba jaring apung) dan hilir (pengolahan dan komersial). Bangunan pengolahan menerapkan konsep Transparent Factory untuk mendukung fungsi edukasi visual secara higienis. Merespons kondisi fisik waduk, desain menggunakan tipologi paviliun yang menyebar untuk optimalisasi penghawaan, serta struktur panggung untuk beradaptasi terhadap fluktuasi muka air. Komitmen arsitektur berkelanjutan diwujudkan melalui penggunaan material lokal seperti bambu dan kayu, serta penyediaan fasilitas Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTP) terpadu. Kawasan ini bertransformasi menjadi ekosistem arsitektural holistik yang memberdayakan nelayan lokal. Kata kunci: Ekowisata, Biota Akuatik, Waduk Gajah Mungkur, Empirisisme, Arsitektur Berkelanjutan. Wonogiri Regency possesses abundant freshwater fishery potential in the Gajah Mungkur Reservoir, yet is constrained by the lack of integrated post-harvest processing facilities. This causes the majority of fishermen's harvests to be sold raw at low economic value. Furthermore, the area faces ecological vulnerabilities such as upwelling phenomena that frequently trigger mass fish mortality, alongside mass tourism trends that often neglect environmental carrying capacity. This design aims to present an Aquatic Biota Ecotourism that integrates production, processing, commercial, and educational recreation functions to increase the economic value for local communities while preserving the aquatic ecosystem. The approach used is Ecotourism Architecture guided by the 4A tourism components (Attraction, Accessibility, Amenities, Ancillary). The design method applies Empiricism through a systematic design strategy based on empirical field observations of precedent objects. The result produces architectural solutions featuring an integrated zoning layout between the upstream (floating net cages) and downstream (processing and commercial). The processing building applies the Transparent Factory concept to support hygienic visual education functions. Responding to the reservoir's physical conditions, the design utilizes a dispersed pavilion typology for optimized ventilation, and stilt structures to adapt to water level fluctuations. The commitment to sustainable architecture is realized through the use of local materials such as bamboo and wood, and the provision of an integrated Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTP). The area transforms into a holistic architectural ecosystem that empowers local fishermen. Keywords: Ecotourism, Aquatic Biota, Gajah Mungkur Reservoir, Empiricism, Sustainable Architecture.]]>
