Abstract

This study discusses the efforts to redesign traditional markets in Pangururan District, Samosir Regency, with a neo vernacular architectural approach. The purpose of this study is to explore how the principles of traditional local architecture can be adapted and developed in modern market design, so as to maintain local cultural identity and meet the functional needs of contemporary society. The characteristics of traditional Batak Toba architecture studied with the neo vernacular concept is the method used in this study with a theoretical-qualitative nature. The results of this study indicate that the application of local elements such as roof shapes, the use of natural materials, and traditional community spatial patterns, can increase cultural cohesion, strengthen the character of the area and create a more friendly and sustainable public space. It is hoped that this study can be a conceptual basis for the development of other traditional market designs in similar areas.
