HENN has developed the concept design for the world's first building made of carbon concrete, the CUBE. The 243-m2 experimental building combines a laboratory and event rooms, and sets an example of architectural and structural innovation at the Technical University of Dresden (a German "University of Excellence").

The race is on to engineer alternatives to traditional building materials that either perform better or tread more lightly on the planet. Made of one of the world's most carbon-sequestering plants, hemp rebar is currently in development at the USA's Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Carbon-sequestering Carbicrete.
