Abstrak
Urbanisasi yang pesat di Bojongsoang telah menyebabkan berkurangnya ruang terbuka hijau, meningkatnya suhu mikroklimat, serta terbatasnya ruang publik yang mampu menampung aktivitas masyarakat. Kondisi ini berdampak signifikan terhadap kualitas lingkungan dan interaksi sosial, khususnya bagi generasi muda yang membutuhkan ruang untuk berkreasi, berekspresi, dan membangun jejaring komunitas. Penelitian ini menawarkan penerapan tema Oasis Urbanism dalam perancangan Youth Center sebagai pendekatan yang berorientasi pada penciptaan ruang sejuk, ekologis, inklusif, dan berkelanjutan di tengah kawasan urban tropis. Oasis Urbanism difokuskan pada integrasi vegetasi, elemen air, material ramah iklim, serta strategi arsitektur pasif yang mampu mengurangi efek Urban Heat Island (UHI) sekaligus meningkatkan kenyamanan ruang publik. Untuk mewujudkannya, digunakan strategi kontekstual yang menyesuaikan dengan kondisi iklim, sosial, dan ekologis Bojongsoang sehingga rancangan benar-benar relevan dengan kebutuhan lokal. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif melalui studi literatur, analisis preseden, pemetaan konteks, dan eksplorasi desain arsitektural. Hasilnya adalah rancangan Youth Center sebagai green refuge, yaitu ruang perlindungan hijau yang fungsional, adaptif, sehat, dan mendukung kreativitas generasi muda, sekaligus menjadi contoh penerapan konsep Oasis Urbanism pada skala tapak bangunan publik tropis.

Abstract
The rapid urbanization in Bojongsoang has led to a significant reduction of green open spaces, the rise of microclimate temperatures, and the limited availability of public areas that can accommodate community activities. This condition has a notable impact on environmental quality and social interaction, especially for young generations who require spaces to create, express, and develop community networks. This study proposes the application of the Oasis Urbanism theme in the design of a Youth Center as an approach oriented toward creating cool, ecological, inclusive, and sustainable spaces within tropical urban areas. Oasis Urbanism focuses on the integration of vegetation, water elements, climate-responsive materials, and passive architectural strategies that can mitigate the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect while enhancing the comfort of public spaces. The contextual strategies are adjusted to the climatic, social, and ecological conditions of Bojongsoang to ensure that the design responds to local needs. The research method used is descriptive qualitative through literature review, precedent analysis, contextual mapping, and architectural design exploration. The result is a Youth Center design as a green refuge: a functional, adaptive, and healthy green space that supports youth creativity while simultaneously demonstrating the applicability of Oasis Urbanism at the site scale of tropical public buildings.
