Building a green home, while increasingly popular in recent years, isn't a completely new concept, and the House in Regensburg by Thomas Herzog, built in 1977, still resonates today as a unique and beautiful example of thoughtful, site-responsive architecture.

 

Elegant in its simplicity, the design employs key sustainable principles, including passive heating and cooling, appropriate material selection and responsive building form, all of which enable the structure to have minimal development impact while maintaining a high degree of efficiency- the result of an integrated approach to site, technology, and design.

Herzog's House in Regensburg is not only a beautiful example of modern design, but also...

...."Our global engineering team has chosen to focus our current efforts on integrating sustainability concepts into the engineering curriculum.  We chose to focus on this not only because of its importance, but also because it sustainability is an already recognized and widely accepted concept which is very much lacking from our curriculum.  We are also aware of other Universities in Canada where sustainability has been widely incorporated into the engineering curriculum."

The earlier the concept get incorporated into psyche of those who have a reasonable chance of implementing the concepts in building, design , planning etc , the better. Good definition and diagram of sustainability.
