Workbar

Workbar is a Boston-based coworking company with 12 locations across the city and suburbs, including Cambridge’s Central and Harvard squares and Somerville’s Union Square. It offers coworking memberships for individuals and teams, private offices and enterprise suites. Members can work at any location, part of a network the company says is meant to help people work closer to where life happens.

Spaces are laid out for how people actually work. About half of each location is open and organized by noise level into four neighborhoods: quiet focus zones, team areas, social spots with background music and areas for frequent calls. Furnishings include highly adjustable desks, ergonomic seating, grab-and-go monitors and lighting designed to reduce eye strain and support circadian rhythms. Phone rooms, offices and meeting rooms are acoustically isolated.
