Perancangan Vertical Living di Medan Belawan dengan Pendekatan Sustainable Architecture

Abstract

Medan Belawan is one of the rapidly growing industrial cities in North Sumatra. This condition has caused environmental problems and limited land for housing. Therefore, vertical living design is one solution to meet the needs for efficient and environmentally friendly housing. This study aims to design vertical housing in Medan Belawan using a sustainable architecture approach. The methodology used includes literature study and field observation to understand the current environmental conditions and needs, and interviews with experts on vertical living buildings and the implementation of sustainable architecture to obtain information in designing. The result of this research is a design of a vertical building that meets the criteria of sustainable architecture and provides solutions to environmental problems. The design takes into account aspects such as energy efficiency, water management, and the use of environmentally friendly materials. It is hoped that this concept can be a solution to build a green and healthy environment in Medan Belawan.
