Design research experiment for convertibility architecture based on seasonal sport tournament

Abstract

Abstract Sport is a part of the entertainment industry that is entirely in demand by the public. The relationship between fans as spectators and athletes in a sports match can’t be separated from the spatial role of architecture as space for interaction. The presence of architecture is not only as a supporting functional aspect in the form of sports arena buildings, but architecture also has a role to provide memorable experiences to users through interactions in sporting events or tournaments. In this research, the factors and principles that influence the quality of the sportscape consisting of functional and user aspects will be implemented into an architectural design. In the process to create a sportscape, the framework used is based on Concept-Based Framework with adaptable architecture as the design approach. The method applied are versatile and convertible which are two detailed parts of adaptable architecture that discuss the spatial changes of use and space. So, the result of the design can be presented in the form of sport facility with the application of spatial convertibility to accommodate several types of indoor sports that can be converted into several spatial form to provide a different atmosphere and experience in the same spatial space.
