Headspace Design

On the move

Posted On April 15th, 2011 Author Amy Wheaton  Filed Under Headspace News   0

At Headspace, we’ve had a busy 2011 so far, with lots of new projects keeping us running full-tilt. We’re about to undertake a big project of our own – we’re moving from our Portland Street location in Dartmouth to an as yet undetermined destination.

Our office lease is up at the end of April, and after lots of deliberation and discussion, we’ve decided not to renew. There are a few reasons for this. As anyone who does business or spends a lot of time in downtown Dartmouth knows, free parking is not a luxury we enjoy, and running around the block to move our cars every two hours to avoid the ever-so-diligent meter maids isn’t the best use of anybody’s time – staff or clients. Plus, our office space is small and our team has grown out of our current digs.

So what’s next? Well, if you’re a client, no need to worry about any interruptions in service or productivity. We’ll still be working seamlessly as a team, using regular meetings and constant communication through Skype and good old-fashioned phone calls to keep up-to-date and keep work flowing. We will be able to meet with clients at their offices, coffeeshops, restaurants, shared work spaces – whatever is easiest for them. Our phone number will stay the same and we’ll continue to be accessible and responsive to clients. You shouldn’t notice a difference in the way we work, other than not needing to make any more trips to Portland Street to see us!

We’re currently looking for a new office space that will house our team comfortably, with adequate meeting areas for us to host clients and ideally, free parking. If you know of any office spaces available in HRM that would suit our team of five full-time staff plus the occasional contractor or intern, please give us a shout. In the meantime, you can find us at our temporary home - 37 Mount Pleasant Avenue in Dartmouth.
