Carbon signals

education and campus building gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet.

No dominant drivers yet.

Brick and Glass look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Brick
  • Glass
Lower-carbon levers

No levers surfaced yet.

  • Review masonry extent, reuse opportunities, and alternate assemblies where the design language allows it.
  • Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.
