On 4 March, join Boudewijn Thomas and Arend van Waart from MVRDV NEXT, for a lecture showcasing CarbonSpace, an early-stage LCA tool designed by MVRDV and made available for free public use, helping architects and designers calculate the carbon emissions of their projects.

This lecture takes place at the Keilepand in Rotterdam, as part of the Carbon Confessions exhibition in Rotterdam. During this exhibition, MVRDV is hosting a series of lectures that expand on themes of carbon reduction in the architecture industry – bringing together experts and collaborators to discuss carbon, materials, and the future of sustainable architecture.

The session will demonstrate how the tool works, how carbon data can inform design decisions from an early stage, and how such calculations can be integrated into practice. Participants are welcome to bring a project if they are seeking guidance on calculating its emissions or understanding its carbon impact, with time reserved after the lecture for questions and discussion.
