Particularly in Medan, the enthusiasm of the community towards art tends to be high, but the facilities of the place lack to accommodate performances. Data collection methods are carried out by collecting primary data through a process of field comparative study and secondary data through literature studies & comparative studies. The design approach used in design studies are analyzing the physical, conditions around the site, potential, the limits that exist on the site, Site and environmental approaches are analysis of site conditions and the best solutions, the user approach is building analysis to meet the need for facilities and quality in accommodating the show, literature studies related to titles and themes and theories that support design ideas. The Metaphor is chosen as a truss design theme to convey the shape of building design by combining metaphorical forms of buildings and the prominence of the same metaphorical theme in the building to those who visit and see buildings to prevent sound distortions by using porous materials. Medan is a big city in Indonesia as a design area with consideration of a strategic location. It is expected that with the presence of this performance center, domestic and foreign tourists and especially Medan people themselves can enjoy the comfort and get to know traditional music and dance in Indonesia.

The research methodology begins with collecting data, studying literature, surveying the location of the research, and also designing problem-solving. In creating an object to be designed, the designer can carry out a variety of alternative design approaches, one of which is to approach the theme that will be used in the designation, Green Architecture. The selection of Green Architecture themes in buildings is considered capable of describing functions and describing culture. Approach to the idea that takes air circulation systems that do not use the air conditioner or ac that is applied to the main buildings of hotels, restaurants, and resorts.

Abstract

The traditional market is a trade sector with its characteristics, such as the interaction between sellers and buyers when bargaining for merchandise. Nowadays, its presence, especially in Medan, is getting replaced by the presence of modern markets such as shopping centers because the market conditions themselves are increasingly shabby and unkempt over time. Thus, people will become more shifting to the shopping center, which is cleaner, safer, and have more varied sales. Therefore, lots of efforts have been made by the government by issuing policies such as the presence of the Build Operate Transfer (BOT) system, the rebuilding of traditional markets, and the rearrangement and redevelopment of traditional markets to compete with modern markets. With the Neo-Vernacular Architecture approach, the project will design by lifting local wisdom around the design area. Medan Tembung, Aksara, as the selected site, is quite strategic, which is the site of ex-Buana Plaza that has burned along its market, also located on one of the main routes to the highway gate of Kualanamu, and is an area with cultural values ​​that still exist but began to disappear. Through this design, it’s expected to increase the return of public interest to traditional markets and also improve the regional economy that also does not forget to raise local wisdom.

Abstract

A convenient pedestrian lane is specifically intended for pedestrians as the main priority. Some factors which influence the comfort of the pedestrian lane are microclimate, noise, aroma, security, cleanliness, beauty. The research was done at the pedestrian lane of Padangsidimpuan by using field observation. The data were obtained from surveying and questionnaire distribution. The research used the descriptive method to describe the existing condition of the pedestrian lane. It based on its comfort and Likert scale calculation to find out the level of comfort of pedestrian lane users. The result of the research showed that the level of comfort from the factor of security, pedestrians’ safety from offense had the highest value of 71%, the level of offense at Padangsidsimpuan was low, and the level of comfort, from the blazing heat, had the lowest value of 41%. It was because shade trees were not densely planted; they were only on the left side of the pedestrian lane so that they did not function optimally. It is recommended that the comfort of the pedestrian lane at Padangsidimpuan be increased and renewed by prioritizing the disabled people, planting trees along the pedestrian lane, and building stopping places to enable pedestrians to wait for public transportation.
