This study is an effort to highlight the need of energy proficient buildings, thus making our cities energy proficient cities and other solutions in Pakistan keeping in view of the energy preservation and proficiency as architectural design solutions. The research concludes that the devising energy proficient buildings thus developing energy proficient cities in Pakistan we can save significant energy for our daily use that will affect our economy directly.
