(MUSCATINE, IA – August, 2018) – Allsteel Inc., a leading office furniture manufacturer, proudly announces that its Boston showroom at 200 State Street, Suite 400 has achieved WELL Certified™ Gold in the Retail Pilot Program. Designed by Charlie Greene Studio of Chicago, IL, the 12,420-square-foot showroom meets WELL performance standards in multiple categories.
The WELL Building Standard™ is the first certification program to use evidence-based metrics to determine how the design, construction, maintenance and operations of a building support the health and wellness of its occupants. Certification is awarded at one of three levels—Silver, Gold, or Platinum—using seven categories of impact relevant to human health and well-being in the built environment: Air, Light, Nourishment, Water, Fitness, Mind and Comfort.
“The Allsteel Boston showroom is one of five spaces in Boston that has achieved WELL Gold certification,” said Courtney Moline, sustainability manager at Allsteel. “Allsteel’s Los Angeles showroom was the first project in the world to achieve WELL Certified Gold in the Retail Pilot program. Efforts are currently underway for WELL certification of the Chicago showroom as Allsteel continues to support the health and wellbeing of its employees and customers.”
”In 2016, we decided we would pursue WELL for our Boston space during our 2017 renovation,” said Diane Collevechio, Director of Marketing for Allsteel.
