Description
Summary:Contradictory problems that arise from the integration of conservation and tourism functions often can be seen in conservation areas, one of which is Pananjung Pangandaran Nature Reserve. Located between a tourism area and a nature reserve, this Visitor Center and Conservation Research Center project have emerged as a gate of control and support between the two areas / functions. The main design issues are unique typology design, circulation and accessibility, and ecotourism. The design concept is the building is designed as a gateway for natural tourism which can be interpreted as the boundary between the two areas, as a point of connection between tourism objects in the vicinity, as a transition zone, and as an identity of the nature reserve itself. This concept is achieved by a zoning division between consevation and tourism, designing circulation flows between tourism objects, spatial composition that shapes spatial experiences as a representation of transition, designing a symbolic approach through the building forms, and other specific designs. This project is expected to become an icon or identity of Pananjung Pangandaran Nature Reserve which answers the said contradictory problems between tourism and conservation functions.
