Flagship concept

Skyshore Commons · Singapore

Mixed-use vertical forest reducing operational emissions by 88% through passive design, algae façades, and community microgrid.

Pathfinding Blueprint

A holistic system for regenerative architecture.

Navigate policy landscapes, quantify carbon impact, and tailor operational strategies aligned with international standards like LEED Zero, BREEAM, and China’s GB/T 51350.

  • Integrated Policy Lens

    Stay ahead of EU Taxonomy, US IRA incentives, and APAC building mandates in one curated dashboard.

  • Material Circularity Studio

    Compare regionally sourced low-carbon materials with live embodied-energy analytics.

  • Resilience Prototyping

    Simulate climate-risk scenarios, biodiversity net gain, and passive cooling thresholds.

  • Stakeholder Alignment

    Use shared canvases, carbon passports, and funding playbooks to align global partners.
