When Aetna needed a new workplace for its in-house marketing/communications team in Wellesley, MA, they envisioned a welcoming, rejuvenating space as amenity rich as any in downtown Boston. Implementing a “resi-mercial” approach, Elkus Manfredi Architects created a spacious, light-filled environment that provides a diverse range of work environments set in distinct neighborhoods that supports health and wellness with abundant natural light and ergonomic seating throughout. Supported in their work—from deeply focused solo tasks to the most collaborative—staff feel healthy, happy, and at home.
