Abstrak

Music is one of the most popular forms of entertainment and plays an important role in the social life of society, particularly among young people. Kendari, the capital city of Southeast Sulawesi Province, has shown significant growth in musical performance activities, with approximately 35 music events held between 2018 and 2021. However, the city still lacks a dedicated facility for music performances. Therefore, the design of a representative and functional music performance center is needed to optimally accommodate these artistic activities. This design adopts a metaphorical architectural approach, which draws inspiration from musical elements to shape spatial and formal expressions. The aim is to create a building that not only fulfills functional needs but also conveys meaning through its architectural expression and presents a strong visual identity. The proposed design is expected to serve as a platform that fosters interaction between musicians and music enthusiasts, while also contributing to the development of performing arts in Kendari.
