PASAR IKAN MODERN CEMARA TEMA METAFORA OSEANIS

Abstract

Fish markets play a strategic role in the distribution of marine products, yet many traditional markets face limitations in facilities, sanitation, and accessibility. Cemara Fish Market in Medan represents a site with significant potential due to its strategic location, but it currently struggles with inadequate facilities, poor accessibility, and environmental management issues. Therefore, the redesign of Cemara Fish Market into a modern fish market is necessary, with emphasis on functionality, hygiene, and user comfort. The design adopts an oceanic metaphorical architectural theme, representing marine elements through form, colour, and material. This approach is intended not only to improve distribution quality and user experience but also to foster public awareness of the importance of the marine environment in supporting the national fisheries economy.
