There are many upsides to the working-from-home life.
Our snot no longer being black due to the hours spent crammed in on the Northern Line, getting to dress business on the top and loose-fitting waistbands on the bottom for Zoom calls, and not having to make polite chit-chat with randoms in the kitchen whenever we fancy a cuppa.
But it can get lonely. Plus, the temptation to sneak back to bed for a nap or spend the mornings on the sofa rewatching part one of Bridgerton is very real.
So if you’re craving a taste of office life with a little more flexibility, Rubberdesk is a cool new service that has freelance work spaces at pay-as-you-go prices.
Plus, unlike some of the sad and sorry offices you’ve worked in before, there’s no bright lighting or static carpet to be seen. These cool spaces are all decked out with modern furnishings and amenities.
Take the offices that Rubberdesk has near Borough Station. You can get a desk for around £20 per day and that offers you a cool workspace, mail handling, internet access, air conditioning, a coffee station, a snack shop, presentation facilities, meeting rooms and even free exercise classes.
Seriously, that’s a pretty good deal.
Fancy feeling like the cast of Made in Chelsea? Try a freelance desk in posh Knightsbridge. Rubberdesk can offer you a desk for as little as £250 per month and that gives you WIFI, printing facilities, air conditioning, coffee machines and a meeting room.
It’s also within walking distance of an array of cafes, restaurants and bars if you fancy catching up with friends.

Another great thing about working in freelance workspaces is networking. Yes, we know that sounds like a buzzword someone on The Apprentice would use but if you’re a freelancer, it can be invaluable to make contacts.
And it’s not just London office spaces. If you’re a trendy jet-setter or based around the country, Rubberdesk has options in other major cities like Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds and Cardiff – to name but a few. Just check out their website and see if you can find somewhere that suits you.
With so many spaces, it also means the dedicated team can help you find something that works for your needs and your budget. Whether your priority is affordability, access to fellow creatives or in the words of Kirstie and Phil, Location, Location, Location.
The team can offer you a quote for free and best of all, there’s no pressure to book. So what you waiting for?
