Carbon signals

hospitality, office, and landscape gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet.

No dominant drivers yet.

Concrete, Concrete, and Quartzite look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Concrete
  • Concrete
  • Quartzite
Lower-carbon levers

No levers surfaced yet.

  • Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
  • Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.
  • Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
