The concepts of "Green Design", "Ecological Design" and "Sustainable Design" have started to be applied respectively. The concept of sustainability, which has recently come to prominence, has found its meaning in the design concept called sustainable architecture. The buildings in sustainable design are environment friendly and have energy conservation by producing the resources they need. However, looking at the environment from an ecological point of view is as important as the comfort conditions required for users by the materials used. Preferable features in sustainable design approach with environmentally sensitive materials. Sustainable design principles that are thought to be more important in the selection of materials as the concept of this concept is understood. During the life of the material, the materials must be least harmful to the environment and the natural resources and the amount of waste should be minimized or recovered after the wastes have been processed. In this declaration, the developments in building materials and their suitability as sustainable architectural principles will be assessed.
