Abstract

The era of globalization has made it easier for the Indonesian people to access various information that has changed the way people view the education system, especially in the creative industry sector. Creative industries are industrial products that go through the process of developing creative ideas to produce innovative products. But the problem that often occurs is that there are no creative ideas due to the unsupportive atmosphere of the space. Biophilic architecture creates areas that can help everyone focus, improve physical and mental health, improve mood, help reduce stress, provide a positive physiological response, arouse curiosity, refresh memory and problem-solving skills, and need exploration. The method used in this study is a descriptive analysis method with a qualitative approach, with the initial step of collecting data in physical, non-physical data, and application development regulations through observation of the design site and literature review. This study aims to find out how the application of biophilic designs in creative industrial buildings creates a creative environment and optimizes human needs for green open spaces based on theoretical studies. This research will produce design concepts that can be input for the Medan city government

Abstract

Parapat is the main gateway to Samosir Island and is often referred to as Parapat Tourism City.

The existence of these social restrictions has led to the stagnation of the tourism industry. The state of Indonesia's tourism economy, especially Parapat, remains volatile due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to investigate the economic situation of the tourist destinations of Parapat in the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses a qualitative study with a descriptive approach.
