Reducing embodied carbon in buildings is critical to achieving net zero and carbon neutral construction targets.
Yet there is much uncertainty about how to reduce embodied carbon....

Get to Know Us

At Carbon Lab, we make sustainability accessible, actionable, and impactful for small to medium size projects. Led by Laura Pachon, an architectural designer and environmental consultant with over a decade in the industry, we bridge design and data to drive carbon reduction. From BIM and parametric tools to low-carbon material research, circularity frameworks, we collaborate with experts to deliver practical, high-impact solutions.

What We Do

Net-Zero Carbon Buildings

A boutique environmental consultancy focused on research and development to support the delivery of net-zero carbon outcomes in small to medium-scale projects. Our expertise lies in exploring low-impact material solutions, performing detailed life cycle assessments, and integrating circular design principles. We collaborate closely with project teams and industry experts to provide targeted, practical analysis that is scaled to suit the scope and complexity of manageable developments.

Circular Economy Solutions

Our approach includes providing circular economy solutions that minimise waste and maximize the lifespan of materials and products. We provide Building Circularity Assessments powered by the industry-leading Circularity software tool offering a building circularity score to quantify material circularity in designs. Review specific scenarios for end-of-life processes tailored to material types

Life Cycle Assessments

Estimate embodied carbon using one of the industry's leading Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) software, equipped with the most up-to-date material database available. We can deliver a report that includes performance metrics, showcasing the range of results for comprehensive Life Cycle Assessments related buildings.

Low-carbon 
Materials Specification

Ensuring environmental compliance and regulatory adherence is paramount in our services. We help clients navigate, advocate and specify low-carbon materials that embed certifications such as Environmental Product Declarations and other environmental accreditations for certifications such as Green Star, WELL or LBC.

Sustainability Workshops

We conduct sustainability workshops and training sessions to educate and empower small to medium size organisations in implementing sustainable and low-carbon design practices.

Environmental Designer, LCA Specialist and Revit expert (Founder)

Laura is dedicated to addressing the climate crisis through her expertise in sustainable research and development and LCAs. She specialises in circularity and the specification of healthy materials, helping organisations reduce their carbon footprints from the earliest stages of design. With over a decade of experience in the building industry as an architectural designer and advanced environmental qualifications from institutions such as Parsons and the University of Melbourne, Laura offers bespoke assessments to different typologies in a very graphical and visual way. She has worked with leading international firms, including Atelier Ten as an environmental consultant and Grimshaw as designer leading major projects. Currently working at ADP on a part time basis she brings commercial experience that can be translated in tailored low-carbon studies and solutions to smaller practices.
