Table 1 - Principles of ecological architecture with examples [2]

Principles of ecological architecture

Example

Optimal use of natural and artificial resources

Management of Water Resources: Gathering rainwater and repurposing wastewater

Reduction in level of energy consumption

Application of Smart Systems: Adjusting shade angles, regulating ventilation systems, and controlling lighting in response to external environmental changes

Promoting the use of renewable resources

Renewable Energy Systems, like solar panels and wind turbines

Cutting back on waste and emissions

Utilization of Ecological Materials: Incorporating environmentally friendly, recyclable, and intelligent materials

Limiting maintenance and building cost of buildings

Synchronizing with Nature and Climate: Employing natural ventilation, optimal positioning of openings, appropriate lighting, and environmentally conscious design

Improve the quality of life of occupants

Fusion of Architecture and Green Spaces: Incorporating green roofs, verdant facades, and expanding ground-level greenery. This involves shading, preserving sunlight, minimizing and adjusting temperature, and managing humidity levels
