Carbon signals	Aluminum, Steel, and Fabric look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. Aluminum Steel Fabric	museum gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet. No dominant drivers yet.
Lower-carbon levers	Focus on recycled content, lighter assemblies, and careful facade-specification choices. Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons. Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely. Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.	No levers surfaced yet.
