The Coworking Diaries - #8 Halkin Southwark
Last week, I paid a visit to Halkin's newly renovated workspace in Southwark for a day of coworking graft. Cue colour popping art, funky furniture designs and the best lasagna I've had in a long, long time...

A warm welcome from the friendly Halkin team included an on-the-house earl grey tea from the on-site cafe De Santis - thanks Ed! After finding my spot for the day, I connected myself to the WiFi and began the day's tasks, including writing new content for our updated website - coming soon so watch this space!
The coworking area in which I worked has been creatively curated to provide both a practical and aesthetically appealing place to work; as the photos show, colour, art and design play a big part in shaping Halkin's identity.
The space has been newly renovated and finishing touches are being made this week, including glass panels to create a partitioned space. Private offices form the majority of the building and are occupied by a variety of businesses across a range of industries.
The coworking space on the ground floor is geared towards freelancers, startups and small teams from larger companies who require a flexible working environment. As well as workspace, you'll find spacious meeting rooms on the ground floor and a fully facilitated kitchen.
A partnership with Rose & King Galleries (based in Mayfair) is part of what makes a Halkin office special - rotating collections of artwork adorn the walls of each location, transforming them into gallery spaces. Explore the full collection on their Instagram page which boasts a growing artfan following.
The De Santis cafe greets you in reception, fulfilling all your early morning caffeine urges.

Comfy patchwork armchairs make perfect breakout seats.

Stunning artwork hangs on the walls.

Tasty food and excellent service; what more could you want?!

All the lovely food risks playing havoc with the waistline. Never fear: Halkin has it covered!
