To attract house buyers, many ways is done by the developers to promote their products, such as by using multiple marketing medias namely television, radio, internet, newspapers or distribute flyers during the exhibition. It is not uncommon that the said use of multiple media elements still make prospective buyers feel confused, because they can not imagine the shape of the house, since all they see is a flat two dimensional (2D) object. To obtain detailed product information house of course they have to visit the exhibition or housing sales office that would spend the time and cost. This is why the authors proposed an application that can display 3D images over the Internet by using Augmented Reality technology, so that prospective home buyers can access these applications anytime and anywhere.

Green buildings have now become the basis of the ideal sustainable development. The application of the green building concept can be seen from three points of view, namely environmental, economic, and social aspects. Virtual Reality allows researchers to conduct realtime analytical studies of green building indicators and compare them with scenarios at the next design stage. This paper discusses the role of Virtual Reality in green building. The methodology in this paper uses a literature study research method, the data obtained are compiled, analysed, and concluded, to get a conclusion about the role of Virtual Reality in green building. From several literature studies, there are many things that can be done by Virtual Reality technology in applying the concept of green building.

Humans have tendency to relate to nature. This is a human trait inherited from generation to generation. Where we can feel happy, interested or amazed by the beauty of nature. The rapid development and technological advances make our relationship with nature farther away. As a result, we become indifferent to the environment around us, the degeneration of ecosystems, and cause mental disorders and stress. Stress and stress disorders are problems that are often experienced by office workers in big cities like Jakarta. There are 60.8% of office workers experiencing depression and stress. One factor causing stress is the work environment, which is a dense urban area. Therefore, rebuilding our relationship with nature becomes more important in the field of conservation. The concept of biophilic design is a design approach based on biophilia aspects which aims to produce coworking spaces that can reduce stress and provide mental and physical healing to its users.
