Social sustainability plays an important role in forming a vibrant and culturally strong place. It emphasizes the connectivity between places and people, making the place as a bonding medium for the people. Masjid Tanah, a Malacca town is facing a problem of losing its young population whereby the place has no community hub that empowers the local and with a local market that is less integrated which caused pollution. The aim of this research is to create a design matrix for social sustainability through architecture and vertical farming in Masjid Tanah. The matrix focuses on the access and linkages; sociability; uses and activities; and comfort and image. These aspects are intended to empower the local economy activities and connect the local community. The research examines the local community and economic activities that pose opportunity and potential to the future development of Masjid Tanah.
