Carbon signals

Concrete, Teak, and Travertine look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Concrete
  • Teak
  • Travertine

building, museum, tower, and landscape gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet.

No dominant drivers yet.

Lower-carbon levers
  • Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
  • Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.

No levers surfaced yet.
