Abstract

<p>The construction industry has undergone significant transformation due to advancements in building materials and technologies. From traditional materials like stone and wood to modern innovations such as smart materials, nanotechnology, and sustainable composites, these developments have greatly influenced modern building design. This paper explores the evolution of building materials and technologies and analyzes their impact on architectural design, sustainability, structural efficiency, and user comfort. The study highlights how innovations such as prefabrication, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and green materials are reshaping contemporary architecture. The findings suggest that technological advancements not only enhance efficiency and durability but also contribute to environmentally responsible and</p>
