Arup becomes the first office in Spain to receive the WELL Equity Rating certification

Arup’s office in Madrid stands as a concrete example of how thoughtful workspace design can become a powerful catalyst for health, performance, and inclusion. The office prioritises high-performance ventilation and continuous air quality monitoring. The interior design maximises natural light and outdoor views, while promoting active mobility through amenities like bicycle parking, showers, and proximity to green spaces such as El Retiro Park.

To support mental and emotional wellbeing, the office provides ongoing access to mental health services, emotional wellness training, nursing rooms, policies that support work-life balance, and an unbiased performance evaluation system.

This achievement further strengthens Arup’s position as a leader in adapting buildings to meet premier wellness and sustainability standards, while highlighting the firm’s expertise in designing future-ready, people-centered office spaces.
