Who is it for?

We are a space for creative people. Our members are musicians, writers, designers, developers, film makers, artists, entrepreneurs and so much more.

Our members make us who we are. As a member in our locations you get a chance to shape our new community from a blank slate to vibrancy.

We don’t look for people who just want to rent an office (although that’s part of it!), we look for people who want to participate, who understand the importance of a shared experience and will do their part in building something unique for everyone who joins.

We’ve done this before, we have a pretty good idea how to do it again but it will take time. Not everything will work perfectly from day one. We’re building the plane while flying it so we need people who are in it with us.

 FAQs

  • Our application deadline has passed but you can join our waiting list in case anything opens up.

  • We’re a non-profit. Our only priority is to create affordable spaces and a welcoming community. Our prices are as low as we can possibly get them.

    See details on our application page.

  • Most of them are in the 10 sqm range. Some are slightly smaller, a few are up to 40 sqm.

  • All members have access to all of our facilities, internet, free coffee, locker space, all events.

  • We’re not an office hotel. Our prices are set as low as possible. We offer some assistance with some things but mostly you will need to figure out how to do your thing.

    We encourage self initiative and invite our members to take an active role in shaping their surroundings and the community.

  • Yes! All of our members have access to both of our locations. We’re one community in two locations.

  • The previous tenant moved out because of mold. Since then there has been significant work done to fix this issue. New reports from mold professionals confirm that the house is safe.

  • We’re able to provide below market rates because we offer a temporary solution for building owners looking to change their buildings in the future.

    Our initial contract is for the coming 2 years.
