A common theme for human beings in the 21st century is to fulfill sustainable development which has been an important principle in current green architectural design. In green architectural design, both technical and economic factors have to be considered concurrently to guarantee technological feasibility and economic reasonableness. As a sustainable design method without complex technology, applying low-tech(nology) approach in green architectural design enjoys a vast potential.
