Providing a safe, comfortable and positive physical space for your employees is proven to boost productivity and productivity directly impacts on profitability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a chain reaction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We spend 90% of our time in buildings. The quality of the environment inside impacts how we feel and our health. In turn, our health and wellbeing impacts on our productivity, which in turn is an important driver for business and directly impacts on profit and economic success. Is it time to assess if your buildings should make people feel great, help get the job done and enable businesses to thrive?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improving natural lighting, air quality and thermal comfort have all been shown to have positive impacts on productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using bespoke tools to shape and test design solutions in collaboration with architects, workplace consultants, and the wider design team, we develop a picture of which design features will support your organisation\u2019s definition of success. Adhering to industry recognised assessment methodologies such as the WELL Building Standard, we undertake Health Impact Assessments to inform each design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Can you really quantify the return?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We were involved in the design of the Genzyme Center, the corporate headquarters for one of the world\u2019s leading biotechnology companies. An employee post-occupancy evaluation into the improved productivity of staff, (due to air quality and natural light) has been estimated to have uplifted by $5 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

海角视频\u2019s own Los Angeles office minimises environmental impact and makes health and wellbeing a priority. Raised flooring, glare control blinds, lighting controls for daylight dimming, solar film on existing glazing, circulation fans for occupant control and task lighting are key features. This 12,000 square-foot, open-plan office also affords views to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We help in setting the standards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

海角视频 has been a major contributor to the standard setting World Green Buildings Council (WGBC) Health Wellbeing and Productivity in Office Report (2014) and the highly anticipated Health, Wellbeing and Productivity in Retail: The Impact of Place on People and Profit Report (February 2016).<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
