FOR CREATORS WHO WANT SPACE, TIME & FREEDOM
The Coworking Hub of the Askardamykti School is a shared, equipped space where creators and artisans can work autonomously on their personal projects, without educational guidance. Through three- or five-hour sessions, the opportunity for continuous practical training is given in specially designed workshops, with access to professional equipment, always with respect for the rules of safe operation.
The use of the spaces concerns exclusively individual, non-commercial creations, in the context of developing technical skills and projects.
Participants work alongside other creators, share machines and benches, and contribute to maintaining a collaborative and functional environment.
🗓️ Access is through pre-determined usage packages (from occasional to daily), and reserving a seat requires a brief introductory meeting with the School.
