The WELL certification stands out for its unique focus on occupant well-being, going beyond environmental considerations. Here's how:   💧🔌 While also addressing environmental concerns, the core of WELL lies in enhancing the quality of life for occupants. By emphasizing assessments categories such as 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱 and 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆, WELL certification ensures buildings contribute positively to the 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 and 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹-𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 of their users.   🌿🌍 By advocating for construction and operational practices that prioritize health and well-being, the WELL certification fosters the development of buildings that not only sustain the environment but also nurture the individuals within them. It delves into comprehensive assessments, including air quality, water purity, lighting, soundscapes, and thermal comfort, ensuring spaces that promote optimal human health. 📈💼 As part of the WELL certification process, with assessments ranging from 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘇𝗲 to 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘂𝗺 levels, ambitious sustainability goals can be achieved, encompassing energy efficiency, building sustainability, and occupant comfort. At DUSS, we specialize in 𝗺𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 within the WELL certification spectrum, collaborating closely with professionals such as M&E engineers, architects, acousticians, and more. Together, we aim to create environments that prioritize human health and wellness.   For instance, in the Marnix project, initiated by our client ING Belgium, we are aiming to achieve the 𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗟 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗺 𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲 with the assistance of the entire team that we would like to thank :   Client: ING Belgium Contractor: Louis De Waele Architect: A2M Architecture Interior Architect: Moreno Architecture Acoustician: D2S International   And did you know we also certified this project BREEAM?
