The objective is to go beyond some technical topics foreseen in the C2C pre-establish program. Those studies address scales from various nature: from the architecture project to urban programming. Studies of programing aim at defining concrete and innovating C2C program opportunities taking into account projects social, economic and environmental dimensions.

The objective is to define an exhaustive program according to the C2C approach, and to formalize specifications document, which will be presented to various stakeholders (architects, programmers, landscape architects, etc.). C2C Studies of definition allow making choices and defining technical alternatives, to prepare project strategic specifications document, which will allow to safely – at both financial and technical levels – launching secondary markets. C2C studies are a preparatory and exploratory tool, which allows public or private decision makers, convinced by the exemplary approach carried by C2C, to analyze various possibilities and pros and cons related to project implementation. The objective is to identify various projects opportunities through technical, legal and financial studies realization. In partnerships with EPEA International, EPEA France and EPEA Belgium. LTF – official representative for the C2C applied to human habitat (architecture, urban design, construction material) – offers consultancy services for decision makers willing to apply the paradigm. Cradle to Cradle (C2C) is a revolutionary paradigm as defined by the American architect William McDonough and the German chemist Michael Braungart, which goes beyond conventional sustainable development (“do less bad”), by being a practical tool for circular economy with positive impact (“do good”).
