Summary: | Rapid urbanization has positive effect to promote economic process and environment development, but it can also create negative impact if it doesn't address properly. In a study estimation, there will be 9 billions of people by the year of 2050 and the majority of us which will live in urban environment. Most of the land is shifting to urban and industrial. More countries will not be able to meet the high demand of food consumption. Rapid urbanization and population growth issuess will henceforth cause food shortage problem. Therefore, every economic must plan and build sustainable ecological urban infrastructural to protect environment. Architecture design solution has a big influence to the environment. So, this dissertation is conducted to review on how permaculture full cycle eco-system (PFCE) can be integrated into urban environment for the purpose of creating a self-sustain community which can solve these issues. It will be introduced by way of vertical development in order to protect the biosphere and further to achieve a sustainable society. The aquaponic system (AS) is introduced into building to develop a new lifestyle and it is able to form self-sufficient community with increasing job opportunities and food production. The entire community live, work and consume at the same place. Literature review based methodology is applying in the study process. Case studies have been choosen based on integration level of permaculture aquaponic system in building architecture. This study explore on how the aquaponic system bring food closer to living and henceforth create a self-sustain scheme that can increase financial resource and improve the environmental and living condition. A real sustainable community scheme start from life-style which is a more holistic appraoch to take care and protect the environment. Knowledge of permaculture can achieve different types of sustainability according to its function of adaption through different approach and integration level. |
