Answer: D

Explanation:

A design with small HVAC zones and low occupant density can enhance thermal comfort by allowing users to adjust the temperature and air flow within their own zones. According to the WELL v2 standard, projects should provide user-adjustable thermostats or other controls for at least 90% of regularly occupied spaces. Ceiling fans can also improve thermal comfort by increasing air movement, but they are not required for this design.
