A Tour of Metromile’s New Modern San Francisco HQ

Metromile, a technology company that operates a pay-per-mile insurance & smart driving app that charges customers for the actual miles they drive, recently moved into a new 14,000-square-foot office in San Francisco, which was designed by Geremia Design.

“When tasked with designing the San Francisco headquarters of innovative car insurance company Metromile, we were inspired to explore vintage mid-century qualities with a modern flare. The 14,000 square foot space references the beauty of classic cars with its material palette of chrome and saddle while yellow ochres and oxblood reds add retro warmth. Framed by cacti and palms, monumental photographic murals of open roads submerse viewers in the road trip experience while unexpected custom art features divide the space. A semi-transparent wall of sign letters and a custom Geremia-designed sand art bench provide functional decoration while installations of beaded car seat covers, vintage road maps and convex mirrors surprise visitors with playful appropriations from the everyday”, says Geremia Design
