Abstrak
Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi, is experiencing rapid growth as reflected in increases in population and infrastructure. Even though it only covers 0.79% of Southeast Sulawesi, Kendari City has the highest population distribution (13.15%). The projected population of Kendari City until 2020 continues to increase, especially because this city is the economic and educational center in the region. This growth has an impact on increased use of built-up land, especially for residential purposes. Environmental problems such as quality degradation due to pollution and food crises are real risks. A growing population increases the need for food, but local farmers face productivity challenges and food waste. So design ideas are needed as solutions to overcome these food problems. The urban agricultural center was built to fulfill food production in the city by applying ecological architecture as a building design approach. This writing uses qualitative research methods with descriptive analysis. The results of this research are the design of an urban agricultural center that can produce fresh food to ensure consistency of food production and meet food needs in the city which also functions as a means of education and research to improve the quality of local food production for local farmers and Kendari city residents, with an ecological approach as The approaches used in buildings include implementing building forms that are responsive to natural energy, utilizing renewable energy, creating green open spaces, efficient use of energy and utilizing the potential of rainwater by using a rainwater collection system to meet water needs in buildings.
