Memperbaharui Kawasan Heritage Gajah Mada dengan Pengadaan Industri Kreatif Berkonsep Adaptive Reuse

Bahasa Indonesia

Abstract

The Gajah Mada area has become a cultural heritage which means all cultural elements that are at least 50 years old; synonymous with religious, aesthetic, and historical values; represents style, lifestyle, time, region, and mindset. Cities with a cultural perspective position culture into 3 main functions, namely as a basic potential, approach, and building orientation. Heritage areas have high potential to support community creativity because they are guided by the historical values ​​of Balinese culture. So later the developments that occur will still be balanced and filtered so as to create a balance between the progress of the times and the history of Balinese culture. Over time, many store house managers were not ready to accept the changing times, resulting in reduced public interest in coming. The decline in productivity in the Gajah Mada area has resulted in a decrease in the quality of the area, such as unclear shop ownership because it has begun to be abandoned, changes to the facade and interior space according to the manager's taste, giving rise to a slum impression, pedestrian arrangement along the road makes the storehouse elevation very low from the sidewalk, the lack of available parking space because many settlements have sprung up behind the shop houses. This also makes the interest of visitors to visit less and less. Competition for functional buildings in terms of comfort has also begun to develop, many supermarkets have sprung up, supermarkets are more interesting to visit. If the time limit is not properly anticipated focusing on alternative actions or solutions to increase productivity, the Gajah Mada Heritage area has the potential to become a dead heritage area.

To prevent this area from being left behind, it is necessary to reorganize and redesign the Gajah Mada Heritage Area into a creative industry in Denpasar City. Areas that initially focused on offline trading activities will now be developed to reach several sectors. Sectors that have the potential in this area are the fashion, culinary, music, workshops, and entertainment sectors. These five sectors were appointed because the originality of the items traded since the Chinese arrived until now still has high appeal, but has not been facilitated properly.
