Carbon signals

church, sacred space, and cathedral 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.
