Nowadays, there is a general consensus about the need for green buildings, energy, and water-efficient buildings where construction waste is minimized. Since we spend most of our time indoors, Covid-19 pandemic and new lifestyles are showing us the importance of healthy and comfortable buildings as drivers for improved human performance and overall well-being.
Luca Caruso (WELL Ap and Fitwel Ambassador) argues the concept of Green Buildings is not sufficient anymore to address them but rather a wider sustainability perspective has to be opened and implemented stemming from the principles of Regenerative design.
An introduction to the rating schemes Well Building Standard and Fitwel certification is presented.
