Carbon Based Design | Designing Circularity in the Built Environment

Introduction

The intensive five-day program centered on measuring the carbon footprint and investigating novel solutions for the upcoming IAAC building. The goal was to submit a solution that would reduce the carbon deposited in the building materials by 40 percent. To make things easier in the workshop, we limited the GWP values for each material to A1 – A3 (Manufacturing).
