摘要：AbstractSustainability means different things to different people but it signals an important direction for current architecture, namely that green technologies are there to serve society and its development. Within sustainability there resides the dominant theme of energy efficiency through mitigation and adaptation. But there are other drivers such as social cohesion and economic growth. This balance makes the delivery of sustainable development important. Architecture and energy is the initial way to understand how green concept iterated in built environment. As a part of design strategy in architecture, this paper tries to define the process of generating form in adaptive indigenous ways through a descriptive method using case studies of exemplary buildings.It addresses the past, present, and future of systems that manage energy in the built environment. It is also intended to provoke a reconsideration of the connections between style, performance, and design.
