One of the main disadvantages in constructing houses is high cost of the building. High cost is primary requirement for constructing the house in places where people are below poverty line, is becoming one of the most significant problem of peoples. On the other hand, urbanization growth will increase rubbish especially non-renewable ones. Eco friendly architectural principles are being incorporated into more buildings every day in the world but they are still out of reach of many people due to lack of knowledge and awareness. In this paper we implemented strategies and systems based on Eco-friendly environment that could still be built at very low costs, with waste materials that is plastic bottle, providing adequate thermal comfort while being sustainable. At the end, it concluded that in different factors such as time of execution, load capacity, flexibility, reducing waste, cost and energy efficiency, plastic bottles can be more effective compared to some conventional building materials such as brick, concrete and ceramic blocks.
