Abstract

TTaman Ismail Marzuki is an arts and culture center in Jakarta that is rich in historical value. After being revitalized, Taman Ismail Marzuki appears with a torn and modern aesthetic. Gedung Panjang is one of the buildings in Ismail Marzuki Park, which looks iconic with a piano-like appearance and looks like steps from a distance. The dominant use of exposed concrete material is used in long buildings to give the impression of a natural building and make it appear as it is. On the other hand, there is an assumption that exposed concrete is a monotonous material, dark in color, and prone to weather damage. This research aims to identify the use of exposed concrete to be able to provide a different perspective in answering the pros and cons of using exposed concrete and provide an overview of the sense of place in the building. case study research is applied using qualitative methods by identifying the long building and other architectural works of Andra Matin as a comparison. Data collection is done by literature study from relevant articles as well as visual observation through field visits and utilizing YouTube media. The results showed that the Long Building, which has the concept of openness and honesty of materials, maximizes the use of exposed concrete materials with large repetitive concrete columns and beams with high ceilings so as to give a dramatic effect to the building. The application of exposed concrete materials combined with other elements in the building gives the impression of a varied building atmosphere but remains in harmony with the monochromatic color game. Disadvantages of exposed concrete that must be anticipated such as the monotonous color of the space because it is dominated by dark colors, moisture on the concrete surface and large maintenance costs if any damage arises.
