Abstract
PT TOM (Timor Otsuki Mutiara) is a shellfish cultivation company with three functions: cultivation, office, and residence. The facilities included in the three functions do not accommodate the activities of actors in the area, so they must be redesigned. This redesign aims to produce a pearl cultivation area that utilizes the climatic potential of Tanjung Lalendo. The bioclimatic architecture approach is a way of designing various buildings and influencing the environment in buildings by preferring to work using the natural forces around the building. Bioclimatic principles, namely, the design object, must take advantage of the site's climate to minimize damage to the environment. The bioclimatic architecture approach is the orientation of the building, the placement of openings, the relationship to the landscape, the selection of colors and materials, the transition space, and passive shading. In the redesign process, data collection methods were carried out by observation, interviews, and literature studies. The results of the redesign are to make the orientation of the building in the area facing diagonally left to the north and south, and openings in the building area are placed on the north. South sides, which are the general wind direction, the use of glass walls and optimization of openings in the building to give the impression of being open and not massive and can reduce the temperature in the building, plants, and landscapes are used for ecological, aesthetic and also make buildings more relaxed, the outer building skin uses fiber cement boards and the color of the walls of buildings in the area uses bright colors, sun-shading / lattice is placed on the side most intensely exposed to sunlight, and utilizes renewable energy.
