Abstract
The world of architecture and construction is being changed by new technologies, new materials, new building typologies, new concerns and opportunities. The architecture and construction have been slow to embrace nanotechnology, but nanotechnology innovations have an enormous impact on building design and construction. Nanotechnology represents a major opportunity for the different construction sectors to develop new products, substantially increases quality, and opens new markets. The thesis aims to describe and examine the potential benefits of nanotechnology for innovative solutions in architecture and construction. It offers a possibility of a revised understanding of the relationship between nanotechnology and the building design and construction in the understanding of innovative approaches.
