Abstract: The concept of sustainability became a predominant part of modern society by the end of the twentieth century. As in many other fields, sustainability has also become a vital component in architecture. Sustainable architecture is the perfect blend of aesthetics and ecology, creating resource-efficient structures that benefit the overall well-being of their inhabitants. Sustainable design can significantly enhance the quality of life for individuals who reside within these buildings and, more importantly, it can have a profound impact on the environment (Ugreen). The term 'sustainable architecture' places a strong emphasis on the latter, with a primary focus on the discipline itself and the products that result from it. The definition of sustainability centers around two crucial factors: the fundamental 'needs'—such as food, shelter, and clothing—and the other 'needs' that enable individuals to lead ethical and comfortable lives (Terry Williamson et al., 2003).
