Abstract:
Organic Architecture, also called "green architecture" has its origins during the oil crisis that unleashed radical thoughts and actions, instituting belief that Western society heyday has passed and only self-sufficiency will, hardly allow, the survival of a small part of the human race. In the years that followed, organic architecture was characterized by a design that aimed to reduce energy consumption, and then, in the late 70s, the idea of "green" has became synonymous with "energy conservation". The "green" architecture increases the efficiency with which buildings and adjacent land use and take energy, water and materials and reduce negative impacts on human health and the environment by improving the design, construction, operation and maintenance methods. An ecological building is passive - a building that was designed in order to be energy efficient and to have little impact on environmental pollution - with zero emission, durable, sustainable. They do not eliminate nuisance that because they are not based on any heating process polluter. Characteristics of ecological architecture are given by the widespread use of resources and renewable energy resources, climate and vegetation elements, use of structures sensitive to environmental changes, reduction of energy bound in materials and innovative construction techniques. We mention the green roof construction, made of wood, straw or clay, grass high thermal insulation, waterproofing of a green roof with birch bark, sheep wool insulation. The goal of green architecture is to create comfortable environments for life in a sustainable manner, both for individuals and large groups.
