The WELL Accredited Professional (WELL AP) is a health and wellbeing credential that denotes expertise in the WELL Building Standard, which takes a holistic approach to health in the built environment addressing behaviour, operations, and design. Being a WELL AP is a commitment to advancing human health in buildings and communities around the world.

As part of an ongoing commitment towards wellbeing and sustainability, DP leverages on the collaborative power of its One Global Studio to tap on the knowledge and expertise of its in-house well-being specialists. In Person puts the spotlight on five of the firm’s WELL Accredited Professionals: Frven Lim, Director of DPA London; Kailas Moorthy, Associate Director of DPA London; Yong Siew Onn, Director of DP Sustainable Design; Eram Ansari, Senior Associate (DPAMENA); and He Qun, Senior Associate (DPA China, Shenzhen Office).

As part of DP’s newly launched channel, START (Strategic Think-tank of Architectural Research & Technologies), In Person is leveraging on technology and bringing the interview in a podcast format. Hosted by Luke Wee and Belle Chung of the Corporate Communications team of DP,  the interview delves into:
