rates which balances humidity and reduces CO2 concentration. Kids bedroom is the room with the least external surfaces, so it has the lower temperatures which were accepted in the mosquito context. EMBODIED CARBON ANALYSIS Embodied carbon was measured throughout the design process and was used as a design tool. The more substantial design decisions for minimising environmental footprint are: -Replacement of concrete wall base-foundation with stone -Replacement of reinforced concrete roofs with CLT slabs. In order for thermal mass to be preserved a pre-cast concrete panel was hung indoors -Introduction of steel with 39% of recycled content Other calculations performed at this stage are carbon from transportation and on site waste.
