REDESAIN SEKOLAH LUAR BIASA B-F MANDARA KENDARI DENGAN PENDEKATAN ARSITEKTUR PERILAKU

Abstrak

The Mandara Special School, also known as SLB B-F Mandara Kendari, is one of the special schools located in Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi. Established in 1990, this school continues to operate to this day. Despite having been established for quite some time, SLB B-F Mandara lacks adequate facilities, particulary in terms of accessibility systems and building conditions that are considered quite old. The existing accessibility does not cover the entire building, as the initial design was based on conventional schools designs serving non-disabled children. Furthermore, the expansion of services provided has not been accompanied by an increase in school facilities. The design process begins with building users, documentating them through sketches, photographs, and videos of the school’s situation. This is followed by a literature review and data analysis to form a design concept that will ultimately yield a design product.To create a supportive environment that provides good stimulation for individuals with disabilities and fosters their independence, a special approach is needed. One such approach is the application of behavioral architecture, which emphasizes the dialectical relationship between space and its users.
