What is WELL?
WELL Building Standard is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying and monitoring aspects of the built environment that affect human health and well-being.
We believe that buildings should be developed with people’s health and wellness at the center of design. The WELL Building Standard takes a holistic approach to health in the built environment addressing behavior, operations and design.
