The loft advantage

A real industrial loft, not a fitted-out office

  • 01Height — 7.2m stud ceilings across the main floor — rare in Auckland coworking.
  • 02Light — Big industrial windows, north-facing, overlooking park land with all-day natural light.
  • 03Materials — Exposed brick, steel beams and carpeted floors — honest and warm.
  • 04Acoustic — Acoustic panels line the main room and meeting rooms, keeping the desks quiet even when rooms are in use.
  • 05Scale — Only 48 desks. A contained community, not an open-plan floor of hundreds.
The Idea Foundry — 330 Dominion Road, Mt Eden
