Pick your desk style and keep it flexible

You don’t have to force your work into a rigid routine. Some weeks you’ll be here once, some weeks you’ll be here heaps. Either way, you can go hot desk or lock in a dedicated workstation.

HOT DESKS

Drop in, grab a hot desk, get moving

No long-term commitment just walk in, choose a desk, and get started.

For days when you just need out of the house and into a proper work zone, you can walk in, choose a desk, plug in, and get into your day. You only pay for what you use, so there’s no long commitment when you just need the space now and then.

Plus, you still get all the essentials, like fast fibre, the business lounge, and those small comforts that help make a full day easier.

Workstations

Keep a workstation with your name on it

A dedicated workstation, set up your way and ready whenever you are.

If you like consistency, this is your “I’m here to work” setup.

Set up your screens the way you like them and leave everything ready for next time.

Lock your gear away, so you’re not carrying your whole office around.

And spread out with enough room for a second screen, your notes, and the work you’re trying to finish.

The Crate Community

Make your workday easier with people around you

This isn’t about making conversation all day or feeling like you have to chat to everyone.

It’s just easier to stay on track when there are other people nearby doing their thing too.

Sometimes you just need a second brain for ten seconds, then you’re away again.

"I've been working from the Crate for more than 3 years now and I simply love it. A great place to meet new people, be focused and work together with colleagues. I other words; the perfect reason to not work from home."
