BACKGROUND The location of this final project is located on Taman Banjir Kanal Timur (BKT), which this park is located on the side of man made river on East Jakarta. The location of this park has potential as a waterfront area, but this park does not use the river as an attraction, visitors tend to be limited and do not have interaction with the river or water.

For the middle and lower classes of East Jakarta, there is a culture that is quite unique, it is hanging out on the side of the road of flyover. The point that I can observe from this phenomenon is actually these people want to feel the experience to hang out in an open area or outdoor area, but in that area and surrounding there is no good or proper place that has its own impression or attractionto be a place for hangout. For example in this Taman BKT, where the seating areas are not well arranged to be a place to hang out and do not have the attraction so that this place is not desirable as a place to hang out.

In this project i tried to create this Taman BKT as a proper place for hanging out and accomodate the other activites like sports that exist in this area with waterfront experience and create the river as an atraction or a focal point of this area, so East Jakarta has a place that can attract people and also save for the visitor.

- Man made River (Banjir Kanal Timur)

- Bad culture of hanging out on illegal area

PRECEDENT STUDY Yangpu Riverside Public Space, Shanghai, China

by Original Design Studio

Yangpu Riverside is a public space which is a 45 km long river bank restoration project, the architect is a person who lives in the area but so far has never felt the existence of the sungia because it was closed by factories. Yangpu Riverside gives an experience as if walking on a river along the river bank so that the hardscape area is located above the river which is supported by steel structures.

Yangpu Riverside has a modern design style with strong stripe design languange. Although it has a stripe design language, Yangpu Rverside also tries to respond to land such as for example there are parts that protrude into and there are parts that protrude out

- Functioned as a public space and it has scenery view facing city in font of the river

- Steel and wood material

- Functioned as a jogging track above the water for giving different experience

Department of Architecture Landscape Architecture

There are two material that is dominant in this project, steel as the structure and the wood as the finishing. The reason for using the steel is to respond surrounding of this site which is a factory and the reason for using a wood is to given the history that this location was previously an old pier.

The use of dark color material are also the way to implented the atmosphere of old factory

- The materials are responding the factory on surroundings

PRECEDENT STUDY Waterfront Park of Aiyi River, Yinchuan, China

by BLVD International

Almost all people have aspirations to live in a city that has a beautiful beach but due to environmental issues, it cannot be had in this city. the architect tried to realize these ideals by the river. The proposed design concept focuses on three objectives; integrating features and character of the city, emphasizing ecology and green approaches and providing human needs. This place has a function as a recration place that is related to nature and also become a landmark.

- Tactile experience of wood

This project has a modern design style with organic and wave design language but made more towards abstract and sharp. so it was like there is something were wavy and aggressive on the calm river

The material that is used from Aiyi waterfront park is steel for structure and wood as finishing, the use of wood is dominant by giving a closed and open experience with wood because wood has a texture that can be felt. And also the used of wood and its color has a function to make it relate with nature

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Initial Program Goals

Site Characteristic

Context Characteristic

Environmental Factor

Public space that also has Water treatment or purification plant

- located on the edge of an artificial river - has a height of 9 meters from the river's surface - functioned as public park and some empty space

- Banjir kanal timur is an artificial river as a water recervoirs to prevent flood that has a lot of water and it potentially used if it is treated

Economic Factor

-water that already purified can be used for public and also for (Dinas Pertamanan) to watering the landscape of city - this area can be functioned for the street food seller or street vendor

-the water that is used for purification are using water from artificial river

- daily need of water for Dinas pertamanan and people from surrounding

- no proper place for street food seller or vendor

- uncontrolled street vender that can cause environmental pollution

- creating proper place for hanging out that can accomodate the habit of local people

- edge of a river can become an attract point

- culture of hanging out in a open area but sometime it become a problem if hanging out on illegal area

Cultural Factor

Department of Architecture Landscape Architecture

- sitting area is not proper yet for hanging out

Connectivity : The location of the site is near residential area that is located accros the street. This location also located in between jogging track that has around 5 km long that on the edge of the river. hopefully this park can become a conncetion between the residential area and rest area for the jogging track as a public place.

Meaning : This site is already functioned as a public space but it is unproper yet as a place for hang out and there are some uncontrolled street vendor and also environmental pollution.

Stewardship : in this design, i tried to not discard the illegal street vendor by giving a proper place and create this place as their responsibility to keep it clean.

Efficiency : this design has a water treatment that came from unused water from the river and the water from the treatment can be used for (Dinas Pertamanan) to watering their landscape.

FORM AND SPACE

Food Stall Area

Food Stall Area Bike and Jogging Track Park Area

Park Area

Additional Deck Area

Water Treatment Area

This park is divided into two areas, namely the upper area which is an existing park, and additional areas like a deck beside the river, the park area gives the impression of an open enclouser because it is located alongside a bicycle track and jogging and is also opposite the merchant's place.

On the deck area which is located alongside the river has a semi closed enclouser because it has a lower height than the garden area and is located behind the trees, in this area visitors feel more like the river's edge or riverfront .

The basic shape that i used in this design is the organic shape on the park as an inspired by water and also it is become opposite from the existing that has formal shape of line that following the edge of the river.

On the existing of the site of this park mostly are covered up with the concrete. In this design i tried to get rid of some parts of the concrete and provide grass in some parts to give the impression of material differences in this park. From the condition of the existing, this park is filled with eucalyptus trees located on the left and right of the bicycle track which is quite covered the garden area and I tried to keep it.

Water Treatment Area

Basically this Taman BKT is located in beetween a bicycle trackor jogging track along side of the river,in fact the bicycle track and jogging track that passes through this site are shaped straight along the river, but in this desgin process I provide a differentiator in the form of a focal point formed from a bicycle track that is divided into two so that in the middle there is a new focal point in the form of a park area in the middle of the bicycle track, with the aim to give a sign that visitors are already in the BKT park area.

As a path movement , on the existeing there are already eucaliptus trees. In this since eucalyptus trees has a tall and leafy shape, i tried to put it in repetitive on the location of the pedestrian walk, so it give impression of directing and also protect the pedestrian because of it lush.In this design movement path has a function to create connvectivity alongside the area of the jogging track or bicycle track, and also this path movement of trees also becomE a border to separate the area of the park and the additional area that is located on the edge of the river.

For the focal point that is located on the middle of the bicycle track, i tried to seperate the bicycle track into two path with an empty land in the middle that can be develop into a focal point. As a focal point, i put some palm bottle in the middle of it and also repetivite. The reason why i choose that kind of trees because on left and the right sight of the bicycle track there are eucalyptus trees that are tall and creating sence like a hallway, as a focal point the palm bottle will be different because of it shape a`it strong as a focal point.
