The Creative Grotto Vibe
17 Feb 2005 in Best Practices, Work by GarrickThis morning Jen brought up the Temporary Office Space idea again. It’s something she’s brought up before. As a highly-mobile professional, the idea is very compelling. To have comfortable, secure place to send faxes grab a decent cup of coffee, and recharge off a good vibe for an hour or two, I think you can see how tempting it is.
This is why I’m tracking the next iteration of the Gate 3 Work Club.
On a smaller scale, I scanned the blogroll (opml) this morning, Brand Autopsy has a nice write-up on Po Bronson’s Writer’s Grotto.
If you’re interesting in this idea and closer to the Twin Cities, check out the Renaissance Box’s Writer’s Refuge.
Here’s a quick list of what I want from my work space (temporary or otherwise):
- Wireless Internet
- Chairs and tables fitting people over 6′ tall
- Really good coffee
- 2 reservable conference rooms; 1 for 2-4 people, 1 for 4-8 people
- An open lofted, studio area where everyone can work quietly, and be aware of others working quietly
- Postal substation
- High speed, color copier
More as it comes to me.
