Abstract
In Medan, there are many buildings with high historical value abandoned. Ex-Deli Tobacco hospital is one of them. It was built in 1885 by Deli Maatschappij, a tobacco plantation pioneer company on Deli land. It is the first modern hospital in Sumatra, located in the heart of the city. This study aims to develop the design concept of the adaptive reuse of ex-Deli Tobacco hospital through a comprehensive approach, site survey, and interview with observers/activists of cultural heritage. Based on the analysis in the relation of structure and space of the city, as well as its site area (about 3.8 ha), the change of use into mix-use function concept becomes the best choice, by combining several functions such as restaurant/café/food court, office/co-working space, museum, and open green space. The old building is conserved based on its significance level. Besides, the new use recommended integrating with the Deli River revitalization concept, which contains a significant historical value in the development of the Medan city. The application of riverside as open green space integrated with the mix-use function, using the theme of sustainable architecture, will bring nature, the past, and the present together in one area.
