Carbon smart design

Target to build long term, avoid sites requiring deep foundation and select optimal structural options greatly reduces the whole life carbon of the building. Early-stage planning tools help to understand and get feedback about carbon hotspots related to design and material selections as well as gives an opportunity to optimize your site planning. 

Later in the project, the options to impact on carbon footprint are less, but still remarkable when designing clever. Optimizing building shape, focusing on efficient energy use, using low carbon and durable materials and designing for modifiable floorplans or disassembly as an example.

Our offering includes Autodesk and One Click LCA technology complemented by our Building Carbon Optimization services that help you throughout the project.
