Why Choose The DECK
We believe in creating a sustainable, inclusive community that celebrates culture and fosters creativity.
Travelers, entrepreneurs, and remote workers contribute a great deal of creativity to the world. Without them, innovation would be stagnant. The DECK’s mission is to supply those digital nomads and entrepreneurs with the space and tools they need to facilitate their continued success.
Community
From enjoying lunch with the staff and other members or chatting over coffee in the morning, The DECK is a place where everyone is welcome and relationships are formed. Many members of The DECK staff speak English and Japanese providing accessible communication with English-speaking users.
By joining The DECK, you join a family. Staff and The DECK members come together for celebrations, holidays, and cultural events, celebrating one another and the our successes. Most recently, G-ZO, an avid user of The DECK’s fabrication lab hosted a Japanese cultural experience called ‘THE AWAKENING,’ which many of The DECK members attended.
Sustainability
Environmental, social, and economic sustainability are key in creating a healthy and lasting community. The DECK, as a business and as a community, priorities the development of sustainable operations. Being conscious of sustainable issues opens a door to building a business that cares for the environment and its community. Currently, The DECK has a program called WING, centered around supporting female entrepreneurs as they create or expand their businesses. The aim is to decrease the entrepreneurial gender gap through supporting women in their entrepreneurial pursuit. The DECK is in the process of increasing environmental sustainability by implementing a bag share system to reduce plastic use, and a waste separation system to increase recycling.
Facilities
The DECK has an open floor plan with a variety of seating options. Whether you prefer working by the window to people-watch or sitting at a table with a friend, you will find seating arrangements that amplifies your productivity.
In addition to the spacious coworking space, The DECK has three private rooms for online meetings, calls, or solitary work.
If you are looking for a formal office space, The DECK offers long-term and short-term office rentals on its second floor. Here, you have access to coworking space amenities while enjoying the privacy of your own office for your business or work.
As a digital nomad and/or entrepreneur, finding places to hold in person meetings can be difficult. At The DECK, we encourage you to use the coworking space or available conference room for your meetings!
Lastly, any user has access to the The FAB Lab, a well-rounded fabrication space with laser cutters, 3D printers, a larger formatting iron, and more. Staff at The DECK is available to support anyone using the FAB Lab, regardless of their skill level.
Amenities
While you may see coffee shops and vending machines in the area, The DECK provides free drinks for all users. Grab a coffee in the morning or have some tea during lunch; the drink bar is available all day.
Sitting at a desk for extended periods isn’t always convenient, but The DECK provides plenty of accessories to make your day more comfortable. With a standing desk, seat cushions, computer stands, headphones, and changers, working at The DECK is a comfortable and relaxing environment.
Additionally, sustainable transportation is a significant component of Japan’s infrastructure, depending on your location or place of stay, commuters often bike or take public transportation to work. The DECK is in a central part of Osaka with direct access to the Sakaisuji Hommachi station as well as access to free bike parking in the building.
Lastly, after a long day of work, exercising or relaxing may be the best way to end your day. Below The DECK you’ll find RAY FITNESS STUDIO, a 24 hour gym with personal trainers and workout machines.
