Perancangan Pusat Kajian Tanaman Obat Obatan di Kota Medan (Green Architecture)

Abstract

Agricultural architecture is a design for agricultural needs so that later agricultural activities in the design can run well. Green Architecture is a movement to preserve nature and the environment by prioritizing energy efficiency (environmentally friendly architecture). Green Architecture is a concept in the world of architecture that seeks to minimize adverse effects on the surrounding environment and on humans and produce a better and healthier ecosystem by utilizing energy sources and natural resources optimally, as well as minimizing energy use in buildings. This design uses a descriptive method, namely by describing some data, describing and explaining both primary and secondary data in the form of literature studies and comparative studies based on existing facts, followed by analysis and synthesis to produce a conclusion. Furthermore, data analysis is carried out qualitatively (through observation) by analyzing aspects of activity actors, space requirements, spatial planning and circulation, building structures and utilities. Then it will be analyzed quantitatively through the capacity of space and the size of the space as well as an approach regarding the location and site. Thus, through the design of medicinal plants in the city of Medan with the use of the concept of Green Architecture, it is expected to be able to have benefits for farmers and the people of Medan city and can be useful in the future
