A REVIEW OF AGRITOURISM DESIGN: THE ROLE OF ARCHITECTURE

Abstract

This thesis, “Architecture Shaping Agritourism Design: Unveiling Strategies (Case Studies),” investigates the significance of architecture in agritourism development. This research examines case studies of numerous agritourism initiatives to show how better architectural designs can enhance the merging of tourism and agriculture, so fostering sustainable rural development. . This study demonstrates how design influences the use, aesthetic appeal, and sustainability of agritourism facilities by looking at architecture, farming, and tourism. Through a study of successful cases, the results highlight the important architectural methods that are essential for maintaining rural economies, promoting ecologically friendly practices, and protecting rural cultural heritage. . The results have demonstrated that well-designed architecture not only supports agricultural activities efficiently but also improves tourist experiences, which in turn boosts tourism. These findings will be helpful to planners creating rural communities, architects designing farm structures, and policymakers operating in the agritourism industry. Because of this, this study provides a variety of recommendations aimed at regulators, architects, and agrotourism entrepreneurs, based on ideas that would enable them to uphold their traditions while embracing innovation and environmental iv friendliness. In conclusion, this study extends our comprehension about agricultural land use by arguing that it needs to be conceived with four main urban component types in mind.
