Abstract

Lodging and recreational activity are essential activities for training, often held at office of Pusat Pengembangan, Pemberdayaan Pendidik dan Tenaga Kependidikan (PPPPTK) Medan. Office of Pusat Pengembangan, Pemberdayaan Pendidik dan Tenaga Kependidikan (PPPPTK) Medan has had one building as a homestead, but as time progress, the demand for this homestead increase because of the increased activity in recent years. Therefore, the expansion of the homestead and recreational space design is vital to support the training activities. This homestead and outdoor recreation centre design use the methodology to solve problems using a qualitative approach and a quantitative approach by following the data and analysis of the surrounding environment as well as the established governmental building guidelines. The implementation of tropical architecture in the design makes it able to achieve efficient use of energy and be environmentally friendly. This can be seen in the mass concept, indoor concept, outdoor concept, structural concept, circulation system, and utility system. Also, this design blends with the local value of the surrounding environment by applying local wisdom.

Abstract

At the time of the Prophet, the mosque was a center for worship activities and economic activities, learning, socio-politics, etc. From this mosque environment, great figures in Islam were born who were not only strong in religion but also intellectually and mentally. However, the mosque has decreased in function now so that it is only a place of prayer. This phenomenon also occurs in the city of Medan, which is one of the largest cities in Indonesia, with the majority of the population being Muslim. Therefore, Medan often becomes the center of various activities, including Islamic religious activities in the area. Unfortunately, Medan does not yet have adequate facilities that can accommodate various Islamic religious activities, so it needs an activity center known as an Islamic center. The design of the Islamic center in the city of Medan solves design problems with an approach methodology ranging from literature studies, site surveys, and design concept analysis. This Islamic center applies a design concept by taking Islamic values ​​that are not indifferent to the surrounding environment so that elements of the local culture are still considered. It is hoped that this Islamic center will not only be able to become a center of activity, especially Islamic religious activities in Medan, but also an area of ​​learning about Islamic and local values ​​in its design

Abstract

Traditional architecture is often a topic of discussion in the literature as well as in academic discussions and the architect's profession. However, sometimes we also encounter differences in understanding due to different points of view and the literature used. Therefore, this paper aims to re-find the definition of traditional architecture by comparing literature review. The research method used is qualitative descriptive analysis method with comparative approach to journal literature reviews. There are 10 national journals and 9 international journals that passed through the selection process and become research samples. The results show that the majority of journals explain that traditional architecture is closely related to the culture of the people in a place that identical to the region or ethnicity. Residential houses as a form of architecture are one of the cultural products of hereditary heritage which are motivated by cultural aspects such as religion, customs, beliefs, philosophies, building process rules, and social aspects to show the social stratification of society through symbols and ornaments. Architectural physical aspects studied in traditional architecture include spatial patterns, structures, materials, main access, space boundaries (walls, roofs, floors), window door openings, orientation, and ornament symbols. In addition, there are also some differences in perception between the contents of the journal in several ways that can be discussed further.

The tourist area of Little Bali T-Garden in Medan is located in Jati Kesuma Village, Kec. Namorambe, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra. Which is one of the natural tourist areas located on the edge of Medan City. The place has an area of ​​± 20 hectares dominated by green open space. This research focuses on knowledge in utilizing existing potential to have a positive impact. The purpose of this research is to revitalize the tourist area to make it more vibrant and useful. This research was conducted using qualitative methods, namely making direct observations in the research area. The phenomenon that occurs in tourist areas has an irregular arrangement and does not fully utilize the land area. The circumstances that occur are things that considered as potentially not being used. Area revitalization uses Place Attachment theory as a basis, outdoor space design theory as a determinant of the needs of tourist areas, and Kevin Lynch's theory will be used to determine what is considered attractive and has the potential to be developed or removed. These results were obtained from the revitalization of the area as an educational and recreational tourism object in Deli Serdang Regency.

Abstract

The growth in the number of car users continues to increase to reach 537,054 units. This increase affects the need for a place for car maintenance and modification. Unfortunately, the City of Medan does not yet have a centralized, adequate, and complete car modification place. These factors are the reason for designing the Automotive Modification Center in Medan, a place or facility that provides all kinds of modifications and standard services expected to make it easier for people to channel their hobbies without being hindered by existing facilities. The application of Hi-tech architecture in this design is applied to the circulation system and building facade. With the revitalization of the Koek & Co building to become an automotive modification center, it is hoped to educate the public about the Koek & Co building’s history. The Koek & Co building was the largest workshop building in the city of Medan in 1937 and witnessed the development of the automotive world in Indonesia, especially Medan.
