Abstract :
The review article seeks to highlight current developments in the investigation of nanotechnology in sustainable architecture. Nanotechnologies play a important role in architectural design. In fact, building materials combined with nanotechnology and nano materials developed smaller, with work better than other materials. Some of the developments on the application of nanotechnology on sustainable architecture, comprises the improvement of the durability and strength properties of concrete; production of self-cleaning surface and glass and thermal and moisture nano-insulation. Any alteration at the nanoscopic level of concrete, ceramic, glass and surfaces and its constituent influences its behavior, including its strength, durability and self-cleaning characteristics. In fact, nanotechnology further influences architecture and design and even design ideas in the world by introducing new materials and how to use energy. Sustainable architecture can be achieved by using materials produced from nanotechnology correctly. The unforeseen consequences of the development of this significant technology should also be considered
