Green architecture, also known as sustainable architecture, is the practice of designing buildings that minimize their negative impact on the environment and the occupants' health while maximizing their positive impact. This type of architecture aims to conserve natural resources, reduce waste and pollution, and create a healthy and comfortable living environment.
Green architecture relates to residential architecture design by incorporating sustainable materials, energy-efficient systems, and renewable energy sources and technologies in the design and construction of homes. This includes using environmentally friendly materials such as recycled steel and bamboo, incorporating natural lighting, ventilation, and insulation, implementing rainwater harvesting systems, and utilizing solar panels and geothermal heating and cooling systems. With the implementation of green architecture techniques, homeowners can save money, reduce their carbon footprint, and live in a safer and healthier environment.
