“I’m proud to say that over the past year, BLANKSPACES has become a launch pad for over 150 entrepreneurs, consultants, and freelancers of all types, to build their dream businesses without the overhead costs,” says BLANKSPACES founder & architect, Jerome Chang.
Rates start at $75 a month and for as little as $300, members are provided all of the advantages of a professional office setting such as Wi-Fi and high speed T1 Internet access, high-tech conference room, high-definition TV monitors, color laser printing and scanning, direct dial VoIP phone system, a mailbox, dedicated phone number, shipping/receiving and parking.
“When I set out to design a coworking “office hotel”, it was with the intent to give people an alternative to working in coffee shops and out of their homes,” continues Chang. “I have since discovered that centralizing business professionals in one productive setting is not only cost effective; it’s a business builder. In just eight months after opening, 25% of the entrepreneurs using the space acquired business or collaborated with others they met there – and the number is increasing fast.” With today’s economic condition, BLANKSPACES has proven to be an ideal, cost-effective environment that promotes effortless, face-to-face networking with high-end office perks.
BLANKSPACES is home to a variety of professions from IT, PR consultants, record labels, graphic designers, and writers, all of which have access to work from a private office, Workstation, or communal Work Bar and access to the lounge, private meeting room, hi-tech conference room, and most importantly, unlimited free coffee.
