ARLINGTON, Texas - s4story -- LyvWell at Harmony in Arlington has earned Fitwel® 1 Star Design Certification for features that support healthier living, becoming the first Build-to-Rent (BTR) community certified under Fitwel's latest standards for low-rise residential communities with shared interior spaces.

The new development incorporates wellness‑focused features throughout the community, including blackout shades, smart temperature controls, filtered water access, low‑VOC materials, landscaped green spaces, walking paths, and mindfulness areas. These features support residents' physical, mental and social well-being while reflecting LyvWell's mission to enrich the daily lives of its residents.

"Achieving Fitwel certification is a meaningful milestone for LyvWell at Harmony and for the broader Build-to-Rent sector," , CEO of LyvWell Communities (https://lyvwellcommunities.com/) Mike Bednarski said. "This recognition affirms our belief that wellness should be a foundational component of housing—not an optional amenity. Our team designs homes and community spaces that meaningfully enhance the well-being of our residents."

Bednarski noted that wellness guided every stage of planning and design. The development, design, branding and operations teams worked together from the start to incorporate Fitwel‑aligned strategies—creating healthier sleep environments, stronger indoor air quality, supportive outdoor spaces and community programming that encourages movement, mindfulness and social connection.

Fitwel certification requires communities to maintain the health‑focused strategies used to earn the designation. Ongoing compliance and optional recertification ensure it's a long‑term commitment, not a one‑time award.

"Our team's passion for creating healthier communities is at the heart of this accomplishment," added Bednarski. "Fitwel certification demonstrates—through third‑party validation—that wellness at LyvWell is tangible, measurable, and embedded in every aspect of our design and operations."

The community's certification is complemented by recognition in the 2026 Fitwel Best in Building Health Impact Awards, where LyvWell at Harmony earned honors for First Low‑Rise Residential Scorecard Certification and Highest Scoring Low‑Rise Residential (Design).
