We have a “no walls” and a “regular conversational voices” policy in the main loft.
Conversations among people here are encouraged in the main loft area. Business, advice, skill-sharing, mentoring. If you think it might be loud, emotional, or private, then conference rooms are available for people already here up to 2 hours/day, and more available at the regular meeting rate. There are whiteboards in the main loft area. Presentations should be done in private conference rooms. If it’s a conversation where you’re generally considerate of others, then the main loft is great. There are presenting voices and there are conversational voices.
Equipment here (monitors, cables etc) left out in common areas, has an owner. When the owner isn’t here, the equipment can be used with care by people here. There are also lockers and a permanent desk option (in a side area of the main loft, always available) for private equipment.
The 2,000 sf main loft area may be reserved for private rentals or educational community events on evenings and weekends: reservations will be posted on the Events Calendar. During evening and weekend events, paid members have enough desks and chairs reserved for them in the 4 conference rooms, 2 other private rooms, and side area of the main loft. Members with permanent desks always have their desk reserved for them. Private rentals are $75/hr for up to 45 people, and $125/hr for up to 125 people.
