Carbon signals

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

No dominant drivers yet.

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

  • Concrete
  • Brick
  • Earth
Lower-carbon levers

No levers surfaced yet.

  • 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.
  • Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.
  • Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.
