the cradle game
design towards zero CO2 compensation!
According to the UN Environment Programme's 2020 Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction, the construction sector is at record levels of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. It is on a path to exceed the limit set in the Paris Climate Agreement of COP21.
The reduction of energy consumption and the future-oriented use of materials are not purely engineering issues. Significant progress towards CO2-neutral architecture can be achieved through the design of the building's form and facade.
The Cradle Game allows you to explore the relationship between design and CO2 neutrality in an intuitive way - by actually designing a building yourself.
