The city of Cimahi has great potential in the trade sector because it is located in the path of regional economic activity and is adjacent to the capital city of West Java, namely Bandung City. However, this condition has a negative impact because the City of Cimahi has become obscured by the City of Bandung. Firstly, the attraction of Cimahi City facilities that access from the community has resulted in fewer visitors to Cimahi City's trade and the potential mentioned before by Cimahi City become wasted. The purpose of this study is to identify ways to increase the attractiveness of the Cimahi City Shopping Center, identify and interpret the problem solution through interior design, and make designs that are closely related to the community in culture, identity, and culture so that the facilities can become a representation of the Cimahi City Local Community. This study will use a mixed method, namely a combination of qualitative and quantitative, also the data collection technique used is the distribution and comparative analysis. Determined design approach is to build several facilities in the Cimahi City Shopping Center that are attractive, unique, different from similar facilities and in accordance with the preferences of the main target users. The facilities that are determined to attract the community and became the focus on the design are the main atrium and indoor garden. The main concept is to apply cultural element to the design, such as the application of bamboo and rattan as one of material produced by Cimahi City to interior elements, the transformation of batik patterns from Cimahi City into furniture or room compositions, etc. The main concept is supported by presenting greening material to build an atmosphere based on the studio preferences of target users who like Shopping Mall with the nature-relaxing concept.
