Medan Music Academy with Metaphor Architecture Approach

Abstract

The region of Indonesia is renowned for its diverse cultures and arts, spanning from Sabang to Merauke. This design focuses on integrating metaphorical elements within architectural compositions, aiming to harmonize the physical space with the essence of music education and creativity. By employing a metaphorical approach, the design strives to transcend mere functionality, creating an environment that resonates with the spirit of musical expression and learning. Drawing inspiration from the rich cultural diversity of Medan and the dynamic nature of music pedagogy, this research embarks on a journey to depict the ethos of music in architectural form. Through the exploration of spatial organization and sensory experiences, the design endeavor aims to create an immersive environment that fosters musical exploration, collaboration, and innovation. Utilizing both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, this research employs case studies, surveys, and architectural simulations to evaluate the effectiveness of metaphorical architectural design in enhancing educational experiences within the context of a Music Academy. Furthermore, this study considers the socio-cultural implications and sustainability aspects inherent in the proposed architectural interventions. The findings of this research aim to contribute to the discourse on innovative architectural approaches in educational contexts, particularly within the realm of music academia. By elucidating the potential of metaphorical architectural design, this research seeks to inspire future efforts in creating transformational educational spaces that resonate with the aspirations and identities of their users.
