At Deskpass, we know that no two remote workers are the same (no two coworking spaces are the same, either), and that's why we work so hard to offer you access to the best ones in your city.
Whether you're looking for a quiet space to focus on your next writing project or looking for more of an open-air, collaborative-type feel, we've got you covered.
Here are a few tips and tricks for finding the best coworking space for your style.
Location, location, location
Time is money for a lot of our Deskpass members, and that’s why we do our best to provide a wide array of coworking options in each city. If you have a busy work day or know that you need to be in a certain area later that day, it’s smart to cut time off your commute.
For example, if you live in Union Square but plan to attend an event in Williamsburg, plan to work from The Yard - South Williamsburg space, which is close by. Then, you can just hop on the L train and straight back home.
On the flip side, you may not mind a longer commute if it means getting to explore a different neighborhood. Some of our most creative spaces are in up-and-coming neighborhoods or trendy areas that are just outside the city center.
With Deskpass, you have the freedom to choose any space, whether it’s close to your home or a bit out of the way...but well-worth the hike there.
Comfort is key
We want you to feel comfortable and amenities can really make an experience for you. When you’re searching for your next coworking space, tick off all the amenities you’d like that day. Free coffee, kitchen access, parking options, whether or not it’s pet friendly, access to a phone line, private areas, shared printer and standing desks are the amenities available for day-pass members.
It’s rare that every space offers all eight of these amenities, so we’d suggest picking 2-3 that you highly value and adding those filters to refine your search.
In the event you’re allergic to cats or dogs (both in my case, sadly), you can work backwards by selecting the ‘pet friendly’ filter and then making a point not to choose one of those spaces.
Environment matters
The right coworking environment can really enhance your experience, which is why we curate the most impressive spaces across the countries to add to our network. We want you to be inspired to do your best work and that really varies from person to person.
For example, some people need a super quiet space to hunker down and focus on their tasks for the day. Then there are those who want a bit of background noise. For most members, they’re looking for a happy medium between complete silence and too-loud cafes. If this is a point of concern for you, you can email the space in advance.
Another aspect of environment is, of course, decor. The majority of Despass spaces are extraordinary in some way, whether it’s that sunny outdoor patio, that decked-out game room, or a state-of-the-art tech equipment that’s going to blow that ‘hard-to-impress’ client away. Other spaces value interior design, as seen through designer furnishings, innovative architecture and decadent plant walls.
