Social distancing, reduced capacity, and a focus on hygiene鈥搕he global pandemic has made us re-evaluate many things, most fundamentally, our proximity to others and the ability for germs to spread.听 From the events of 2020 to the latest reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the World Health Organization has made it clear 鈥� COVID-19 and Climate Change are our biggest health concerns as we simultaneously face听听 public health and climate emergencies.*听
The decisions made by the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry should be informed by experience in design for sustainability and wellness, and focus on occupant experience, well-being, and public health.

This presentation will focus on wellness in the workplace, a prevalent consideration in third-party certifications and standards by exploring approaches from leading companies around the world and the relationship between the built environment and corporate policy..听 The design of speculative and purpose-built office is evolving, and the demands of future occupants are shaped by these two emergencies. Where is the market going in office space with respect to wellness? What does it mean for developers, architects, landlords, engineers, operators, contractors and, most importantly, occupants?听听
