The space spans 31,000-square-feet at Hines’ One Franklin Square building – home to the Washington Post – and accommodates over 500 members. Mindspace creates a coworking experience built for the discerning business professional and organizations seeking workspace designed to inspire productivity and growth.

“We are excited to officially open the doors to Mindspace’s first U.S. location and to offer our luxe workspace experience to one of the most innovative and vibrant business communities in the nation,” said Dan Zakai, CEO of Mindspace. “We look forward to welcoming a fresh and diverse wave of influential professionals and companies.”

Fully-serviced workspaces and locally-tailored events, talks and workshops fuel connectivity among members. 93% of Mindspace members globally report that the networking alone helps their businesses grow.
Mindspace’s international design team has partnered with local artists from the D.C. area to custom design and furnish its K Street location. This includes acclaimed German-born designer and art director Alex Proba, who is widely recognized for her abstract, eye-popping aesthetic through her work for high-profile clients like Maison-Gerard, Google, and Kickstarter. Alex has curated an exclusive frieze that will run throughout Mindspace Washington D.C.
The lively space features robust amenities, including a gourmet coffee and beverage bar; event and conferencing facilities; custom furnished common areas and break out spaces; and 24/7 access. A Mindspace membership – available on a monthly basis – also provides global access to Mindspace’s renowned locations worldwide at no extra charge – among them San Francisco (opening this August), London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Warsaw, Tel Aviv, and many more.
