Abstract
A green approach to the built environment involves a holistic approach to the design of buildings. All the resources that go into a building (materials, fuels or the contribution of the users) need to be considered if a green architecture is to be achieved. Sustainable design attempts to have an understanding of the environmental impact of the design by evaluating the site, the embodied energy, the toxicity of the materials, the energy efficiency of design, materials, and construction techniques. At the same time, digital technology, as a global concept and approach, gained a lot of momentum in the last three decades; in general, it also has an equivalent influence on the practice of architecture and urban design all over the globe. Application of green architecture adopted new trends and ideas coupled with the higher cost of new technologies. Green architecture can only exist when effective energy efficiency becomes integral to the design process.
