For those who want to know a little more about The Desk, its conception, design and technology, it all started about two years ago. Husband and wife team, Kristian and Mandy, were both at interesting places in their careers. Kristian, an architect, was put on a project spearheading his then firm’s knowledge-base of the “the third space.” The concept of working in a place other than your home or office became more and more of a topic of conversation for Kristian and Mandy because Mandy, an advertising creative director and copywriter, had just gone freelance. It was a challenge for Mandy to find a motivating and inspiring place to work–and the concept of The Desk was born.

Yet, Kristian and Mandy didn’t want The Desk to be just another coworking space. Most coworking spaces tend to feel just like the office everyone is trying to escape. It had to be different. More inspiring. More conducive to doing your best work. It had to have an aesthetic that felt significant. It had to have incredible coffee. It had to have wine so at the end of a really productive day, you could celebrate it with a beautiful blend. It had to have everything you wouldn’t expect, period.

So from all the must-haves, Kristian and Mandy spent countless hours pouring over the details and seeking out finds that are hard to come by like the country’s first Classe 9 Rancilio two group espresso machine. All the careful consideration and thought that has gone into The Desk is intended to inspire you to do whatever it is that you do best.

Sourced from the finest coffee regions in the world, ink! Coffee roasts its beans at an altitude of 6610 ft., which allows for longer roasting times at lower temperatures to reveal more complex flavor profiles. The beans we order today are roasted to order and are in your cup just a few days later. The ink! difference is its freshness and its flavor. We’re proud of our privileged partnership with ink!, and we look forward to sharing their exceptional coffee with everyone who uses The Desk.

From 50MB downloads to 20MB uploads, our data network has literally been put to the test. We hosted Develop Denver not too long ago, a web developer’s workshop, where 50 coders and developers were uploading and downloading huge files at the same time. It was a great way to test the limits to our network, which we have yet to find. But if or when we ever do, we plan to upgrade our network capacity so you can work uninterrupted at The Desk.

Our large conference room and private office, which can double as a small conference room, both have flat screen projection capabilities all controlled via an iPod touch. Each room is also equipped with Polycom phone conferencing and dedicated, secure Internet connections so you can collaborate confidently.

We take our tech seriously at The Desk. We want our workspaces to be everything you need them to be.
