In this episode we talk to Catherine Sinclair, Head of research at Space Architects and Zaid Alwan, associate professor at Northumbria University about the Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) that led to the SPACE Digital Carbon Model (D-Carb) This cutting-edge tool empowers architects to integrate embodied and operational carbon analysis into the earliest design stages. Through this work, it possible for architects and designers to make informed, low-carbon design decisions from the outset of a project, revolutionising the way the industry approaches sustainability.  We talk about the KTP process itself and how the tool can be used.
