Reducing Carbon Footprint in Building Design
Architect Dami Lee and Nilesh Bansal from cove.tool discuss how cove.tool addresses a gap in the construction design phase to reduce the amount of embodied carbon in a building's lifecycle. They examine the renovation of the historically significant Portland Building, led by DLR Group Design. By using cove.tool, they estimate that the renovation successfully reduced potential carbon emissions by 700,000 kgCO2.
