IWBI honors HOK with a firm distinction and Komal Kotwal and Kay Sargent with individual accolades.

The International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), a global authority driving the market transformation toward healthier buildings, organizations and communities, has announced the winners of the 2022 IWBI Awards.

HOK has received the prestigious WELL AP Impact Award, highlighting the company’s dedication to prioritizing health and well-being in its projects and within the industry as a whole. HOK is the organization with the most WELL Accredited Professionals on staff.

The WELL AP Impact Award is part of the WELL at Scale Awards, acknowledging entities that prioritize health and well-being across their entire organization or real estate portfolio.

Two HOK leaders have also secured WELL Community Awards.

Komal Kotwal, sustainable design leader for Health, Well-Being and Equity, earned the IWBI Rising Star Award. This honor reflects Kotwal’s contributions to the WELL movement during her inaugural year as a WELL Faculty member.
