Building healthy returns

In the run up to the pandemic many enlightened landlords and developers were starting to pay greater attention to the impact their buildings had on people. In particular, they were exploring whether or not buildings could be designed, built out and operated in a way that optimised the health and wellbeing of the people who worked in the space.

Now, as the world emerges from the pandemic and employers investigate new ways of attracting their employees back to the workplace, landlords and developers are embarking on a new space race, rushing to retrofit existing buildings with all manner of features and working up plans for a new generation of buildings that promote health and wellbeing.
