Sustainability & Green Architecture
Sustainable architecture is not a new concept; it is innate to the basic pre-modern architectural principals: building orientation on the site to optimize/diminish solar exposure, amount of natural light, natural ventilation and use of proper materials for the climate. The architect has the capability to manipulate these principles to enhance the design. The advent of industrialization, modernization of mechanical systems and availability of cheap fuel have led us to become spoiled by how these systems can affect the inhabitation of buildings and have made us deeply reliant on these systems for decades. However, a social consciousness of energy scarcity is translating itself into arch-itecture that motivates professionals to design based on those old principles. Such tenets are the first simple steps to Green Arch-itecture, coupled with the use of materials that have incorporated sustainable methods in their fabrication.
