The design and layout of buildings has a significant influence on the energy consumption for both the construction and the use of the building.

Decisions regarding materials and methods of construction will affect how much embodied energy is incorporated into the building.

The layout of the spaces within the building, the orientation of the building, the location of windows or other openings, the installed systems (such as heating) and the levels of insulation will affect the energy consumption of the building in use.
