Abstract

To maintain the reduction in fuel consumption and the need to modify the techniques concerning climate change new ideas for example “Parisian worker gardens”, New York’s “community gardens”, and “vegetable squares” of Muscovite, come into the picture. The city aims to produce more clean energy than it consumes within fifteen years for a positive energetic assessment. The city plans to shift more towards renewable energies for example photovoltaic cells, biomass, green architecture such as walls and roofs, etc. The new architecture should also follow these green technologies and methods. Methodology—The methodology of this paper is based on a qualitative research format for findings and results, depending on: Data collection, Data Analysis, Theoretical analysis and analytical cases studies integrating the interdisciplinary fields of green technologies and sustainability. Thus producing a new language of architecture based on the dynamic relation among materials, structures and finally a new spatial idea. Empirical application and study. Besides rational comparisons and conclusions.
