We’re a coworking space in Ultimo, Sydney.
The Workbench is a space where you can get work done and be surrounded by the best kind of coworkers: people creating interesting things.
The challenge in being able to work from anywhere is that there’s often nowhere to work from. We’re about fixing that. The Workbench isn’t about sharing desks and offices, it’s about bringing together Sydney’s creative community and getting things done.
We’re designers, writers, developers, artists and business people.
Although some great startups work with us, we’re not an incubator. Instead, we’ve created a unique, casual space where you can meet like-minded people, collaborate on projects and share ideas.
Come show us what you’re working on.
Drop in: Level 2, 645 Harris Street, Ultimo.

The space
The Workbench is on the second floor of a light-filled Ultimo heritage warehouse and is fitted out with ergonomic desks and a gorgeous Memphis Red workbench which runs the length of the room.
If you’d like to try a standing desk there’s another bench that’s the perfect height for that too. More relaxed? There’s beanbags and plenty of space on the sofas by the window.
Take a break at the bench or tables in our kitchen, take five on an old-school video game arcade table or take a walk in the park behind our building.
The space is bathed in super-fast wireless internet and there’ also gigabit ethernet to most of the desks if you prefer your internet wired.
We share dedicated mens and womens bathrooms with other offices on our floor, and there’s room to park your bike next to your desk.
Photos of the space can be found on our blog.
