Carbon calculator for the earliest design phases
We brought carbon data forward to the concept stage - so design teams can cut a building’s footprint when it still costs nothing to change.

// The challenge
Where it started.
Embodied-carbon decisions are made early but measured late. By the time numbers arrive, the cheap, high-impact choices have already been locked in.
// Our approach
- 01
Modelled embodied carbon against the data available at concept stage.
- 02
Built a calculator that gives a fast estimate from minimal inputs.
- 03
Designed it to fit the way architects actually work early on.
- 04
Made the outputs comparable across design options.
