dc.descriptionGreen building design or, at least, the principles of building green have been around for thousands of years. Examples in history and vernacular architecture all over the globe show that buildings were designed and built in direct response to natural climatic condi- tions. These structures were green even before the term was coined. Right from caves to tents to igloos, people adapted their shelter structures to the natural surroundings. Pueblo Indians, for instance, used a southern exposure plus overhanging cliffs to warm their adobes in winter, while sunlight struck less directly during the hot summer.1 The ancient Romans similarly employed southern facing houses to trap heat inside during the cold winter months, using clear materials like mica or glass, which acted as solar heat traps.2en_us
