This place feels less like a coworking space and more like a home... in a good way. It's fab being able to work in a cute, cosy cottage close to Footscray’s delicious eateries, and there’s plenty of car parking nearby. Everyone's super respectful and Liana makes it feel welcoming, easy to book and flexible—whether you need a dedicated desk or just drop in casually like I do.

Really well organized and clean workspace. Liana is very efficient and easy to use systems. Rooms are comfortable and clean, a pleasure to have art therapy sessions, and well suited for a therapeutic healing space. Thanks, Liana!!

Love The Idea Collective in Footscray! I've been working there for 18 months now - it's a flexible, quiet and low key place to just get on with whatever I need to do. Liana is the perfect host - pops up miraculously when I need something, and provides all the basics really well.

The Idea Collective is a great space for professionals. The space is always clean, neat, and tidy with the manager, Liana, always being helpful, professional, and kind. Liana often organises events for co-workers to mingle and it feels very nice to be a part of a small community! My clients and I always feel comfortable and calm in this space. Perfect for my therapeutic work. Highly recommend!

I have been working at The Idea Collective- 80 Paisley Workspaces for many years now. As a small business owner, I enjoy having the opportunity to be part of the community working along side others. The inside space is always clean and clear and has a calm vibe. The location is perfect with easy access for myself and my cleints. There is everything you need in a workspace and the booking system is very easy to use. Liana is professional , always very helpful and easy to communicate with. I would hightly recommend to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can certainly take a tour of the space before signing up for a membership. In fact, it’s encouraged, to help you get a feel for what your workday will look like. Reach out here to set up a time to come and see the space.
The Idea Collective operates during regular business hours, as indicated above. For access outside of these hours, please contact the operator directly to inquire about any available options.
For spontaneous collaboration and interaction, open desks provide an open and flexible environment. If you prefer a dedicated space with shared community elements, dedicated desks offer a great balance between personal space and interaction.

On the other hand, private offices are best suited for focused work and private interactions. They're ideal for solo workers as well as teams seeking a dedicated space, shielded from distractions.

Choosing the ideal coworking arrangement for you is about aligning your workspace with your work style, team dynamics, and project requirements.
Coworking spaces typically have limited storage options, most of which are reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices. With that said, it’s best to contact the coworking operator directly via the form on the right side of the page to learn about available storage options.
Whether you're a day pass holder or a monthly member, you can access most amenities. Meeting rooms do require prior scheduling, and private offices are reserved for those with subscriptions. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to all. Complimentary services are also available regardless of membership tier, while ancillary services can be purchased separately or negotiated with The Idea Collective.
