Building, Sustainable Living
The architecture of
the future is here, now. One key aspect of this new kind of architecture is
"sustainability" -- and it's become a huge challenge for architects
and engineers all over the world.
But what exactly does
"sustainability" mean, as far as 21st century architecture is
concerned? The definition is long and complex. It includes the use of
environment-friendly construction materials, the recycling of these materials,
the use of energy-efficient technology, and the impact that the project will
have on the local culture.
