Here are our recommendations for different team roles and sizes:
Co-founders: Choose individual memberships. When partners want equal ownership and autonomy, this lets each co-founder have individual access, and their own membership, benefits, and relationship with The Corner. This also allows for separate billing (each person can pay on their own card or be reimbursed). Also great for: independent collaborators, freelancers, advisors.
Team Staff: Choose our “Team Add-Ons” option. One primary account pays one invoice for the whole team. Easier administration: Quickly add/remove team members as roles change. Ideal when access is tied to employment (e.g., staff, interns, assistants). Best for: small businesses, nonprofits, agencies, project teams.
Blended Access: Need mixed access? You can have one or two people as full members, plus “Business-Hours” team seats for everyone else.
-
Flexible Common Room: 40–50-person multipurpose room with a kitchenette for meetings, events, productions and trainings. Tables and chairs available.
Adaptable Training Room: 20-seat training lab with access to desktops and laptops, projectors, or TV.
Room for Production: Flexible common room with kitchenette. For a cost upgrade you have the option to add the adjacent media studio for additional space for photo shoots, podcasts, and more.
-

“I just need a place to work today.”
Get a Community Day Pass. Add the After-Hours Extension if you stay past 6pm.
