| − | == Imagining the perfect place ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | A HackerSpace should be spacious with preferably a few smaller rooms to have different projects in.
| |
| − | The Kitchen is nearly a must but it should be a bit shielded from any other rooms to avoid any smells.
| |
| − | A Bathroom is an interesting feat.
| |
| − | The Living Room Spacious enough to have a couch and big table
| |
| − | A good public transport link is a must too
| |
| − | | |
| − | The perfect place would have:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *A low rent ✓
| |
| − | *Heating ✓
| |
| − | *Natural light / windows to open ✓
| |
| − | *Kitchen ✓
| |
| − | **Side note: we have a small bar in our space. The building has a small shared kitchen in room L014 which needs some more equipment. There's also a huge cantina on the other side of the building, not sure if we can use it, we'll have to ask..
| |
| − | *Toilet(s) ✓
| |
| − | *Shower ✗
| |
| − | *Parking or at least the possibility to access it with a truck to (un)load stuff ✓
| |
| − | *A bus stop or railway station not too far away and available till late ✓
| |
| − | *Separate entry (not shared with the rest of the tenants) so that we can install our own access system ✗
| |
| − | **The building has one shared entrance, the reception is always staffed by at least one person
| |
| − | *No (or deaf) neighbours ✓
| |
| − | *Easy to reach ✓
