Who It’s For
The individual worker looking for a community-oriented environment who enjoys fitness and social events, has a pet (or doesn’t mind pets around the office), and likely lives in downtown Austin or on the east side of the city.
It’s definitely not just a place to work; it’s a community. Perfect for individuals who prefer a dynamic and interactive workspace over a quiet, head-down environment.

Community & Vibe
It was very quiet the day I went there (but it was a Friday – a notoriously quiet coworking day).
But in walking around and talking to the staff, I learned about regular events like workouts in the neighboring park, bagel days, and cookie days. I also heard there was 95% occupancy, so regardless of how full the space was the day I visited, the membership is nearly full.
