Immobel, Belgium's largest listed real estate developer, is fully committed to this dynamic. The company is transforming its office buildings into truly regenerative buildings designed to impact the environment positively. These projects incorporate carbon sequestration, local energy production and storage, and spaces welcoming biodiversity on roofs, facades, and immediate surroundings.
Furthermore, the health crisis has highlighted the growing importance of health and well-being in the workplace. The offices of tomorrow will need to offer a healthy environment: optimal air quality, abundant natural light, access to green spaces, integrated walking routes, bicycle parking, noise reduction, efficient ventilation, etc. These elements promote more active and balanced lifestyles.
Technology will play a key role in this transformation. Workspaces will be modular, connected, and adapted to users' evolving needs. Innovative tools will allow, for example, meeting room booking or service ordering via smartphone. In addition, HVAC systems will be coupled with smart meters, ensuring precise management of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning while collecting data on energy consumption and air quality.
For Immobel, the future of real estate lies in the seamless integration of sustainability, well-being, and technological innovation. By rethinking the office's role in the city, the company intends to actively contribute to shaping a more responsible living and working environment for users, communities, and the planet.
