How Joining the Waterman Workspace Business Community Elevated My Design Studio
When my shared workspace in Prahran unexpectedly closed, I found myself working from home—a setup that didn’t suit me at all. As a graphic designer, I thrive in an environment filled with energy, collaboration, and inspiration. That’s why, in 2024, I made the move to Waterman Workspace at Chadstone and M-City—and it’s been a fantastic (if somewhat forced) change.
A Space That Inspires Creativity and Productivity
Waterman Workspace offers an ideal balance of professionalism and creativity, making it the perfect environment for businesses of all sizes. The beautifully designed workspaces, meeting rooms, and breakout areas have helped me stay focused while giving me the flexibility to work in a setting that fuels my creativity. Whether I’m developing a new logo for a Melbourne business, designing a corporate brochure, or working on a brand identity refresh, having a dedicated workspace makes all the difference.
The Power of Networking and Community
One of the biggest advantages of joining Waterman has been the opportunity to connect with other professionals. Within just a few months, I’ve met business owners, marketers, and fellow entrepreneurs, all of whom bring fresh perspectives and opportunities for collaboration. Working in a space that encourages networking has allowed me to showcase my services—from branding strategy to website design—and connect with businesses that need high-quality, professional design solutions.
A Seamless Experience for My Clients
For my clients, being based at Waterman means easy access to professional meeting spaces and a polished, business-ready environment. Whether we’re reviewing brand guidelines, discussing a new digital campaign, or finalising corporate stationery designs, having a dedicated workspace adds a level of professionalism that’s hard to replicate at home.
Why Environment Matters for Business Growth
Relocating to Waterman has reminded me how important environment is for business success. Having a structured, well-designed workspace has boosted my productivity, expanded my professional network, and allowed me to offer an even better experience for my clients. Plus, the monthly ‘un-wined’ drinks and Christmas party have been incredible—an unexpected bonus!
