It is a research project that aims to explore the design concept of sustainable urban escape by considering gentrification as a turning point for adaptive reuse. The chaos of a fast-paced city serves as the background for this study, which addresses a research gap in the intersection of urban culture and interior architecture design. In the context of interior and architecture, this study looks at urban culture and the concept of inner space in urban chaos. By exploring the idea of adaptive reuse, the study explored a social space with an interior and architectural context that is perceived and defined as a place to relax the body, mind, and soul in the middle of an urban environment. It used a case study of the Pos Bloc building and Pasar Baru shopping street in the Pasar Baru neighborhood of Central Jakarta^s Sawah Besar subdistrict. One of Jakarta^s chaotic subdistricts is Sawah Besar. This study combined a collection of images with a collection of narrative opinions to create a storytelling experience. The interweaving of historical images with the most up-to-date documentation can plan the area^s sustainable development.
