Eco-friendly architecture represents a significant shift in the way we design and construct buildings. With a growing awareness of environmental issues, architects and builders are embracing sustainable and eco-friendly practices to minimize the impact of construction on the environment. This approach encompasses using renewable materials, energy-efficient designs, and a focus on reducing waste and carbon footprint.

Lifecycle Assessment
Designing for Sustainability:
Principles of Eco-
Architecture
Energy Efficiency
Incorporate passive design
strategies for optimal natural
lighting and ventilation.
Sustainable Materials
Prioritize locally sourced, recycled,
or rapidly renewable materials.
Water Conservation
Integrate water-efficient fixtures,
rainwater harvesting, and greywater
recycling.
Passive Design Strategies
Optimize natural ventilation,
daylighting, and thermal mass for
reduced reliance on mechanical
systems.
Consider the entire lifecycle of the
building from construction to
deconstruction.
Biophilic Design
Integrate nature into the built
environment to enhance well-being.
Smart Building Systems
Implement smart technologies for
energy management and
automation.
