KLIPFONTEIN COUNTRY ESTATE IS PURSUING THE INTERNATIONAL WELL BUILDING AND COMMUNITY STANDARD.
The WELL Community Standard aims to impact individuals not just within the walls of their homes or workplace, but throughout the public spaces where they spend their days. A WELL community is designed to support health and well-being across all aspects and areas of community life.
Resources in a WELL community, being natural, human and technological, are used effectively, equally and responsibly to meet Klipfontein Country Estates current and future needs and priorities.
The WELL standard is broken up between the following concepts:
Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Movement, Thermal Comfort, Sound, Material, Mind and Community.
