Application of Intangible Metaphor Architecture in the Design of Facilities for Students' Interests and Talents at the Miftahul Huda-Tasikmalaya Islamic Boarding School
Abstract
Architectural design approach, through the stages of data collection, analysis, synthesis, and formulation of design concepts. The results of the study show that Islamic values such as the spirit of worship, rahmatan lil alamin, and ukhuwah can be effectively translated into architectural forms, spaces, and experiences through a non-physical metaphorical approach. The selection of a hexagonal basic shape supports spatial efficiency, order, and the meaning of togetherness and sustainability that is in line with the pesantren culture. The conclusion of this study confirms that the Intangible Metaphor Architecture approach is able to produce a facility design that is not only physically functional, but also spiritually and contextually meaningful. This research is expected to be a reference in the development of Islamic values-based Islamic values-based educational facilities.
