Abstract
The outlook of the Green building slant is persistent with the expedition of most economical housing contrivers ensuring underprivileged people to ingress guarded and reasonable housing. Energy demand and climate change plaguing are the two major causes that could be mitigated by the emerging concept of low-rise energy building. The intent of this exploration is a unified submissive slant to reduce the tepid requirement for high-rise and lowrise buildings through an improved building envelope design.
Keywords: Green Building, Energy efficient building systems, Architectural design, Energy consumption.
