WELL certification is globally recognized as the standard for determining the quality of interior spaces in terms of people’s health and comfort. WELL PLATINUM certification means that Mississippi House and Missouri Park fulfilled the strictest criteria for air, water, light, nutrition, fitness, and comfort.
“WELL PLATINUM certification complements the LEED PLATINUM certification we had already earned. Mississippi House and Missouri Park are thus completely unique on the Czech real estate market. Both certifications confirm the high standard of sustainability and the quality of the interior environment in these modern office spaces,” said Václav Jonáš, CA Immo Czech Republic Managing Director, and added: “This achievement is very pleasing, but we’re already concentrating on innovations to buildings that were built earlier. Moreover, we are making substantial investments into the quality of life at the entire Riverside Karlín campus. After the completion of the HolKa pedestrian bridge, it became the gateway to Karlín from Holešovice and thus Riverside is a natural meeting place for people passing through and those who work in the area. We want everyone to feel comfortable here.”
WELL Certification differs from others by placing an emphasis on the influence of interior environments on health and comfort. It was created in the US and its fulfilment is necessary to meet specific construction and operational standards while the quality of the interior environment is monitored by an independent expert.
In the case of Mississippi House and Missouri Park, the following parameters were monitored:
- High Air Quality Standards: The buildings provide the optimal amount and quality of air circulation, which can increase productivity by as much as 11%.
- Interior Lighting Respects Natural Light: High ceilings and the location and size of windows assured sufficient access to natural light and green views. Artificial lighting is equipped with Flicker-Free technology to remove any irritating flickering. Artificial lighting in circadian mode works according to the user's wishes or in automatic mode and at the same time respects the time of day and diagnostics of outdoor light, or chromaticity. The light temperature from blue to yellow holds in high regard the natural biorhythm.
- Potable Water Quality: Strict norms for the quality and taste of potable water are implemented for offices, facilities, and the surroundings.
- Promotion of an Active Lifestyle: The buildings’ surroundings offer paths for cyclists and runners, as well as facilities for other sports in good weather.
- Wellbeing: The surrounding park and relaxation zones are designed to for those that want to unwind or work in the fresh air, offering an open-air office.
