Growing awareness of wellness increasingly influences how buildings are designed and operated. Occupiers now demand buildings that provide flexibility, more daylight, improved air quality, better acoustics, connections to nature and sophisticated temperature control to support health, wellbeing and happiness.
How are developers, architects, designers and manufactures responding to create spaces that support productivity, improve performance, and foster good mental and physical health? What is the latest thinking and where are the exemplar projects?
This free-to-attend half-day conference will explore how architects are responding to the needs of today’s organisations and the occupants of buildings
