Carbon signals	museum, campus building, and landscape gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet. No dominant drivers yet.	The recorded material palette leans lower-carbon on paper, but procurement and quantity still matter. No dominant drivers yet.
Lower-carbon levers	No levers surfaced yet.	Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
