Coworking for rent on Via della Chiusa, Milan

The view from this centre’s stunning workspaces will leave you in no doubt as to why its name roughly translates as ‘canal lock’. In fact, the entire Navigli neighbourhood is named after the network of centuries-old canals that wind between historic structures and modern office blocks alike. Della Chiusa blends old and new Milan; a glistening, glass-fronted professional hub bordering the grounds of one of the city’s oldest (and most beautiful) chapels. Inside the centre, floor-to-ceiling windows offer spectacular views and ensure natural light fills every designer office and meeting room, while high-speed Wi-Fi and professional staff ensure your productivity is at its peak.

The Milanese wrote the book on al fresco drinking and dining, so it’s no surprise that the streets surrounding this centre are lined with an array of bohemian shops, bars and eateries. This is a creative district, with hidden gems and inspiration at every turn – including the charming Piazza Vetra park on your doorstep. And when you’ve had your fill of networking, exploring and embracing local culture, you’ll find getting home a breeze thanks to an array of local transport links.
