Carbon signals

Aluminum, Steel, and Glass look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette.

  • Aluminum
  • Steel
  • Glass

church, sacred space, tower, and building 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
  • Focus on recycled content, lighter assemblies, and careful facade-specification choices.
  • Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons.
  • Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.

No levers surfaced yet.
