Sustainability in Architecture: Low-tech or High-tech?
The concept of sustainability has been becoming more and more important all over the world. It is an urgent need to make all processes "sustainable" in order to protect the environment and human life. Numerous technical innovations are emerging to ensure sustainability. These rapid developments, especially in architecture, make it increasingly difficult to distinguish the concepts of sustainability and technological innovations from each other. Sustainability has started to take place in our lives as a completely technology-oriented concept. This article is to seek an answer to the question of whether the concept of sustainability in architecture can be achieved with low technology. It also discusses which approach should adopt to ensure sustainability.
