An architectural icon reimagined and refurbished, Mode will produce an extremely low level of carbon in refurbishment.
This is central to the philosophy of Mode. This is a landmark workspace designed for today and for tomorrow with abundant terraces, greening and biophilia throughout.
CIRCULAR ECONOMY Principles
1. Retain as much of the original structure as possible to minimise use of virgin materials
2. Identification, storage, and re-use of materials on-site, further reducing use of virgin materials
3. Recycle wherever possible, while directing waste streams for re-use within the industry as much as possible
Element Four has carried out a high-level comparison of the embodied carbon emissions from refurbishing Mode versus demolishing and rebuilding it. The study concludes the total embodied carbon savings from refurbishing Mode instead of a new building of similar size are 26,779 tonnes CO2e which is equivalent to 89 rocket launches (compared with LETI 2020) and 13,110 tonnes CO2e (compared with LETI 2030) which is the same as 4,082 transatlantic flights.
