FOUNDATION IN NATURAL AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT AUGUST'14 ESSAY ONE

1. Nowadays, people usually will forget some environmental
problems such as electrical, cleanliness, healthcare and more.
Those problems will cause environmental damage and also
increase the risk of health as long as unsightly environment.
As architect we must confront and analysis those problems,
so that we can build a peaceful resident area for people to
live. To confront the problems, these are the ways for us to
conserve the environment by constructing green home.
The first way to construct green home is planting. We
should grow some plants indoor and outdoor such as trees,
flowers or pot flowers and turfs. Better, we can plan to build
a small garden or balcony in each of home. So that people
are breathing with the clean air and reduce the level of
violence as they feel relaxing. Plant also can be home
decoration like colourful flowers and vases. This way can
make us closer to natural environment.
The second way is air care. We must build away from
industrial area especially for heavy industry because it will
produce chemical substances and cause pollution. So we can
reduce the risk of health in resident area and maintain the
cleanliness of the air. Also the plants around the area will
died rapidly and decreasing oxygen produce around resident
area. Architects should analysis this problem income.
When constructing, architect and structure engineer
should suggest or apply more natural structure such as wood.
So people who live inside can have a suitable temperature

2. and feel freshly. Also the price of natural structure is lower
than manmade and so we can reduce to cost work but sell
with high price.
Furthermore, architect need to identify the electrical
efficient. For example we can change the electrical system
into solar system. So we can lower the electrical bills for
people who live inside. Also, we are increasing the electrical
energy available for export to another resident area. This way
can help us to improving business competitiveness once u
identified.
These are the ways which can create green home. So
that people can stay with comfortable and enjoyable. Last
but not least, people should start to think about the
conservation of green home and brings a brilliant society.
Good becomes great but bad becomes worst , I hope my
country, Malaysia will become a sustainable development of
green home later on.
