Check out our Commentary on Interiors Carbon: The 50% Nobody Fully Counts on The Future Atlas
15 Jul 2026 - Our commentary in the Q2 2026 edition of Future Atlas examines tenant interiors as a significant yet often under-recognised aspect of building decarbonisation. While base buildings are increasingly designed and operated for efficiency, a substantial share of a building's environmental impact is influenced by tenant fit-outs, operational energy use, material replacement cycles, and workplace decisions.
There is a need for stronger landlord-tenant collaboration, greater transparency in building performance data, increased accountability for carbon within interior spaces, and design approaches that extend the lifespan of fit-outs.
