Abstract :
With the increasing awareness of the problem of climate change and ecological environment, we find that it is a great challenge for architects to explore how to design ecological buildings. Pritzker Architecture Prize is the Nobel Prize of architecture and its goal is to improve human living environment. Many Pritzker Prize winners have designed many ecological buildings creatively. To study these advanced design concepts, techniques and method of ecological buildings will be helpful for Chinese architects to provide some references when they design ecological buildings and ecological cities.
