TERRAFORM analyzes climate, calculates resource impact, and connects the right team to get your project started. is a web-based rapid analysis application for sustainable building design. With only a location, building type, and area TERRAFORM generates a comprehensive report for sustainable projects before the first sketch.

Build a better future for humanity

TERRAFORM provides the data to create a built environment aimed at defeating global problems facing humanity today from poverty to resource scarcity, from deforestation to climate change.

find the right team from start

TERRAFORM offers concept level planning that suggests high performance building systems and their manufacturers, recommends the local designers to implement the systems, and finds contractors with the experience to build them. The US Small Business Association database can be referenced to prioritize the communities we want to build.

bring innovation to new projects

TERRAFORM reduces the risk of new ideas allowing the right team to build a resilient, net-positive, world and elevate us towards the Resource-Based Economy.

 
 

How TERRAFORM works

TERRAFORM analyzes climate, calculates resource impact, and connects the right team for architects, engineers, and builders to begin a project.

Enter Project Information
