Abstract

The development of ecological architectural theory in China and the revival of traditional feng-shui theory have become a huge driving force for the development of eco-building today. In this paper a comparative study of ancestral halls in east Hubei province is made from the perspective of building orientation, topography, building space and building materials and other elements related to both eco-building and feng-shui theory and a conclusion is reached that the essence of feng-shui theory is consistent to the ideology of contemporary ecological architectural theory, which the author hopes will provide some references and a scientific basis for the sustainable development of ecological buildings with Chinese characteristics in China.
