Abstract

The advancement of globalization and technology has brought about various impacts and changes for Indonesian society, including among adolescents a group particularly vulnerable to the negative effects of technological progress. This phenomenon is also evident in Kupang City, where the Teenagers population grows annually. However, issues such as gadget and online gaming addiction negative consequences of globalization combined with a lack of dedicated avenues for nurturing adolescent potential, have led some young people to engage in less productive activities. Therefore, the design of a Youth Creativity and Skill Development Center in Kupang City, utilizing a bioclimatic architectural approach, is proposed as a solution to these issues. This project aims to establish a centralized facility that fosters creativity and skill development among the youth of Kupang City by providing spaces that support creative activities and skill-based learning. The design methodology encompasses a literature review, comparative studies, field surveys, and the analysis of technical data and relevant literature. The resulting design features educational spaces tailored to the needs of young people, with a centrally located main building serving as the site's focal point characterized by a three-story geometric form. The bioclimatic architectural approach is implemented through passive design strategies that leverage local climate conditions, sunlight, wind, and vegetation to achieve natural thermal comfort while minimizing reliance on artificial energy sources.
