Carbon signals

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

No dominant drivers yet.

Paving, Salvaged Fragments, and Stone look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Paving
  • Salvaged Fragments
  • Stone
Lower-carbon levers

No levers surfaced yet.

  • Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.
  • Check source geography, fabrication intensity, and whether stone is structural, cladding, or finish-only.
