Difference between Contemporary architecture and Green building

Contemporary architecture vs. Green building

Contemporary architecture is the architecture of the 21st century. Green building (also known as green construction or sustainable building) refers to both a structure and the application of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from planning to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.

Similarities between Contemporary architecture and Green building

Contemporary architecture and Green building have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Green roof, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, Passive solar building design, Rainwater harvesting, Solar water heating, Sustainable architecture.

Green roof

A green roof or living roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane.

Passive solar building design

In passive solar building design, windows, walls, and floors are made to collect, store, reflect, and distribute solar energy in the form of heat in the winter and reject solar heat in the summer.
