Abstract

This study aims to determine the level of difference between the user perceptions of two different types of Mihrab design concepts, which are Mihrab modern concepts and Mihrab classic concepts. Additionally, comparing the design perceived more positive by the user. We experimented by giving space stimulation to 55 people of research subjects. The stimulation includes to two types of Mihrab with different concepts, classical and contemporary modern design concept, which are tested in the form of the differential semantic question, with the question of perception of Islamic values. The result is the users' perception has a significant difference, but both have positive response values such as perception of clean, comfortable, focused, attention-grabbing, simple (not luxurious), quiet, natural. In addition, the perception of beautiful and Islamic has no significant differences in valuation. A positive assessment of these two design concepts can be proved that there is no absolute in designing Mihrab. Both modern and classical are perceived beautifully and Islamic. But the important thing is how the design can give a positive impression, especially in representing Islamic values. The results of this study are expected to be a reference for the design concept of Mihrab that has a tendency more appropriate for today's society, and also to develop design field of the place of worship.
