Frequently asked questions

Is the desk really mine, or do I share it?
It's yours alone — leave your monitor and gear set up overnight, and nobody else will use it.
What hours can I work?
24/7 with your personal access code. Reception and refreshments are staffed weekdays 8am–6pm.
Can I bring a colleague occasionally?
Yes — guest day passes are available at preferential member rates.
Can I upgrade to a private office later?
Absolutely — many of our private office tenants started in our communal space and grew from there.
