Answer #3: By designing so that the structure may be one with the environment.

There are countless designs that integrate the environment with the structure resulting in a completely new and revolutionary project. A rooftop garden would be a great yet simple way to to this because not only is the garden allowing for additional insulation, it is also helping the native plants by giving them a space to grow. Another way that the environment can be used fro designing a structure is by placing it within a mountain allowing for coverage of cold breezes and allows for the light to come in. By placing a structure within the hill or mountain can reduce the energy bills of the structure allowing it to be efficient and one with the environment. Making/ designing a structure to be green may be good but designing it in order to be one with nature and still efficient is priceless.
