Abstract: The energy crisis in the world, has also, in our country, launched a new wave in architecture - the design of structures using geoecological materials. The main advantage of this architecture is primarily a cohesion between architecture and nature, protection of the building from external physical effects as well as greater energy efficiency within the building, and therefore savings. Use of natural materials and natural energy sources functions in a very simple way. Designing in this way achieves the following goals: preserving the natural environment, conserving energy and reducing energy needs. 

Key words: architecture, geoecology, energy, protection.
