Perkembangan ekonomi kreatif di Indonesia terus mengalami peningkatan dan menjadi salah satu sektor penting dalam mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional. Kondisi tersebut turut mendorong berkembangnya aktivitas seni, desain, dan komunitas kreatif di Kota Banda Aceh. Namun, hingga saat ini Banda Aceh belum memiliki fasilitas terpadu yang mampu mewadahi kegiatan pameran, edukasi, dan komunitas kreatif secara optimal. Sebagian besar kegiatan masih diselenggarakan di ruang serbaguna atau fasilitas sementara yang belum mendukung kebutuhan ruang dan kolaborasi.
Perencanaan Creative Exhibition Center ini bertujuan mewadahi kegiatan pameran, edukasi, dan komunitas kreatif secara terpadu melalui penyediaan ruang yang fleksibel, adaptif, dan mampu mendukung perkembangan ekonomi kreatif di Kota Banda Aceh. Pendekatan arsitektur kontemporer diterapkan untuk menghasilkan rancangan yang responsif terhadap perkembangan kebutuhan pengguna, memiliki fleksibilitas fungsi ruang, serta mampu menciptakan lingkungan yang interaktif dan representatif.
Metode perancangan meliputi studi literatur, observasi lapangan, analisis tapak, studi preseden, dan analisis kebutuhan ruang. Hasil perancangan berupa Creative Exhibition Center yang mengintegrasikan ruang pamer, ruang edukasi, ruang komunitas, area pertunjukan, dan ruang publik dalam satu kesatuan yang didukung oleh fleksibilitas ruang, pencahayaan alami, penghawaan alami, dan sirkulasi yang terbuka.
Perancangan ini diharapkan dapat mendukung perkembangan ekosistem ekonomi kreatif serta menghadirkan ruang publik yang inklusif, representatif, dan mampu mendorong kolaborasi masyarakat kreatif di Kota Banda Aceh.

The creative economy in Indonesia has continued to grow and has become an important sector supporting national economic development. This growth has also encouraged the development of art, design, and creative communities in Banda Aceh. However, the city still lacks an integrated facility that can adequately accommodate exhibition, educational, and creative community activities. Most events are currently held in multipurpose halls or temporary venues that do not effectively support spatial requirements and collaboration. The proposed Creative Exhibition Center aims to accommodate exhibition, educational, and creative community activities in an integrated manner by providing flexible and adaptive spaces that support the development of the creative economy in Banda Aceh. A contemporary architectural approach is applied to create a design that responds to users' evolving needs, offers spatial flexibility, and provides an interactive and representative environment. The design process includes literature review, site observation, site analysis, precedent studies, and space requirement analysis. The resulting design integrates exhibition spaces, educational facilities, community spaces, performance areas, and public spaces into a unified environment supported by flexible spaces, natural lighting, natural ventilation, and open circulation. This design is expected to support the development of the creative economy ecosystem while providing an inclusive and representative public space that encourages collaboration among creative communities in Banda Aceh Keywords: Creative Exhibition Center, creative economy, exhibition space, creative community, contemporary architecture.
