Aetna Offices – Farnborough

Aetna Offices – Farnborough

Fabric Interiors + Architecture has designed the new offices of health insurance company Aetna located in Farnborough, UK.

Aetna came to Fabric to design and assist in selecting a building that could consolidate their two offices.

The selected building is across two wings enabling Aetna’s primary brand colours to be integrated across reception, cafe, and each wing allowing each space to have its own identify but still on brand. The key design drivers included creating a space that maintained the bright aspect the building offers as well as maintain as much transparency between the various departments.
