Creator Cafe

Creator Cafe is a virtual coworking space built on Gather for remote workers who want the coffee shop experience from the comfort of their home.

The Problem

I go to a coffee shop 2-3 times a week for peer accountability. Seeing other people work motivates me. However, going to the coffee shop every day is not ideal, and when working from home, I have a tendency to slack off.

Creator Cafe was built to solve this problem --- to recreate the magic of a coffee shop experience, but in the comfort of your home.

How It Works

You can think of it as a cafe that people work out of. You can come, do your own thing, be around people who are working, and connect with a few when you and they are free. Drop in and out whenever you feel like it, with no obligation to come in at a certain time or stay for a certain duration.

Spaces

The Creator Cafe features different zones for different modes of work:

• Deep Work Spaces --- for when you want to get stuff done with no distractions
• Shallow Work Spaces --- when you want to work around people but are open to some conversation (with background music)
• Coffee Bar --- a hangout area to chat with others and take a break

Who It's For

Creator Cafe is designed for anyone working remotely who misses the social energy of working around others --- freelancers, indie hackers, remote employees, creators, and builders who work on their own schedule and want a virtual space for accountability and connection.
