ASHRAE Society Theme 2025-2026

Healthy Buildings: Designing for Life“​

“Shelter is one of the most fundamental human needs, providing physical protection, emotional stability and a foundation for communities. “Healthy Buildings: Designing for Life” highlights the vital connection between indoor environmental quality (IEQ) and human well-being, emphasizing that buildings should do more than provide shelter—they should enhance health, comfort, and safety. This theme explores how design, operation, and maintenance strategies can balance energy efficiency with occupant well-being, creating high-performing, sustainable spaces. By integrating IEQ principles, the built environment can minimize environmental impact while fostering healthier, more resilient communities.”​
