In the furnace, clean, modern design and life-improving facilities have become fashionable strategies for flexible work.

Work-life balance behavior can be stressful, but Boulder’s

The coworking space proposes an overall solution for integrating labor and lifestyle in a cool new clubhouse on Pearl Street.

Before founding Kiln, its CEO Arian Lewis, COO Andrew Redpath and Creative Director Leigh Radford had opened up more than a dozen other collaborative office spaces around the world, from Cape Town to Mumbai, London to New York. They have introduced their new brand of boutique kilns to Utah (Salt Lake City, Leahy, Park City) and now Boulder, and will open a new space in the Denver area in the next two years. Their future development plans include kiln locations in California, Texas, Nevada, Arizona, Washington and Oregon.

So why is Boulder? "Boulder's unique personality makes it very suitable for kilns," said Radford. "This is the focus of social awareness and technology, and the birthplace of many active social and environmental movements."

The complex to build the Boulder Kiln Headquarters, a two-year project has been entrusted to

Design studio and

. The difficult task for the crew was to merge seven existing buildings together to create a new 22,000 square foot space. Radford explained: “Property owner John Reynolds did not demolish the building, but had the opportunity to commemorate the bones of the building and reuse them through cooperation with the kiln.” Arch11 project Manager Mat Brundage explained: "The original functions of these buildings range from ice rooms in the early 20th century to retail spaces in the late 20th century-these have been intertwined over the years."

In order to figure out what might become a structural hodgepodge, the design team came up with the idea of ​​a central "main street", which is connected to different areas of the entire building complex by concrete ramps. When construction workers demolished the walls separating the buildings, they created a central gathering space. When overhead, they installed large translucent skylights to fill the room with sunlight, and added nearly 50 feet of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Pearl Street.

Diversity is the spice of working together in the kiln. "The program allows multiple ways of working," Brundage explained. "Some business owners prefer private offices; others are flourishing in larger, taller, daylight-filled offices. Together, these buildings retain an inherent fashion and can achieve multiple work styles."

Radford said: "Kiln allocates 25% more space for each member than its (competitor), thus creating a more people-oriented environment." For single or 50-person teams, Kiln provides different levels of access and Private membership level, starting at $345 per person per month, with shared desks. On-site facilities include an auditorium, podcast studio, event space, commercial kitchen, coffee shop, nursery room, long-term bicycle storage, electric vehicle charging station, outdoor terrace and landscaped roof terrace.

Health is also part of Kiln's overall mission. Therefore, in response to COVID-19, they introduced enhanced cleaning and safety features, including hospital-grade HVAC purification systems, antibacterial brass "Kiln Key" systems, infrared temperature checkpoints and more.

Carefully consider form and function when placing the space. Radford said: "Kiln combines natural materials, bio-design, art and furniture collections to resonate with this rugged mountain town, while providing a dynamic technology community with purposeful, thoughtful and creative designs. Best service," "We have developed a series of more than 20 kinds of custom and proprietary furniture, which not only give the kiln a unique aesthetic, but also provide a higher level of functionality for each of our members." Kiln said Boulder Way provides a desk for walking or cycling. The overall appearance is daylight fresh, soft colors, influenced by medieval and Norwegian design.

Radford said: "Boulder is a highly creative community that will continue to lead the future." "We call it our newest residence and we are very excited."
