Abstract

Abstract. The informal market grows and develops without planning and design. Therefore this market has many limitations and pressures from its environment. The informal market grows without being planned (unorganized) and develops independently (self organized) so that the trading space that is formed has various levels of spatial quality and does not have certain standards. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct research in finding the quality level of trading space in the informal market and classifying it based on the quality of the space. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The data were taken from several similar literature studies which were then enriched by direct observations on informal markets in Jakarta. The results show that the quality of the trading space has a spatial quality sequence ranging from imaginary to visible. From this quality range, trading spaces can be grouped into 4 types, namely: street vendor, stall, bazaar, and flea vendor.
