Carbon signals

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

  • Aluminum
  • Concrete
  • Brick

The recorded material palette leans lower-carbon on paper, but procurement and quantity still matter.

No dominant drivers yet.

Lower-carbon levers
  • Focus on recycled content, lighter assemblies, and careful facade-specification choices.
  • Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
  • Review masonry extent, reuse opportunities, and alternate assemblies where the design language allows it.
  • Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
