Rather than gutting the early 19th-century Georgian building that houses the new Rough Luxe hotel in London, or glossing over its imperfections, Rabih Hage, the architect and designer, practiced a different kind of minimalism. He decided “to do the least construction work possible — to change only two doors and add only one door,” Mr. Hage said.

It’s not a mystery that trees are good for the environment, and the Forest Service’s Center for Urban Forest Research has a software program to compute that benefit. The Tree Carbon Calculator uses data like a tree’s age and location to see how much carbon dioxide it captures from the atmosphere and how much its shade reduces the energy needed for cooling. The program, equipped for California but to be updated nationwide by summer, was created to guide cities, utilities and schools that want to plant trees, said Greg McPherson, the center’s director. But homeowners can use it, too. He entered data about the London plane tree outside his office in Davis, Calif., and learned that each year it captures 113 pounds of carbon and saves his building 162 kilowatt-hours in energy, “relatively good numbers.” The calculator can be downloaded at www.fs.fed.us/psw. To understand your results, comparative data is at www.fs.fed.us/psw/publications under the first “Publication List.” STEVEN KURUTZ.
