Urban Farming Centre with a Permaculture Architecture Approach in Jakarta
A sustainable design solution addressing Jakarta’s food security issues through an integrated Urban Farming Centre. This project combines food production, education, and recreation using permaculture
Jakarta faces significant food security challenges due to its 98% dependency on external food supplies, rapid urbanization, and loss of local food production capacity. This study proposes an Urban Farming Centre designed with a permaculture architecture approach to address these challenges. The centre integrates urban agriculture, public education, and recreational spaces within a sustainable framework.
Using descriptive qualitative methods, the design applies permaculture principles such as energy efficiency, resource recycling, and system integration. It also incorporates smart farming technologies like real-time environmental sensors and automated irrigation. The centre promotes local food production, public awareness, and community empowerment while utilizing renewable energy and minimizing waste.
