If you’re entering 2026 with big goals, new projects and a desire to upgrade your work life, now is the perfect moment to rethink where and how you work. A growing number of London professionals are moving away from makeshift home setups and into private office spaces that offer stability, creativity, comfort and community. The Old Street WorkRooms has quickly become one of the top choices for this new wave of ambitious workers!
Surround yourself with an environment that supports your success from every angle: productivity, wellbeing, connection, lifestyle and flexibility.
Here’s why starting 2026 in a private office at The Old Street WorkRooms can give you the strongest possible foundation for the year ahead.
Finding The Right Space Matters (More Than Ever)
Increased hybrid schedules, alongside high expectations, have made it essential to find a space that not only accommodates your day-to-day tasks but also improves them. For leaders, growing teams and early-stage founders, the right private office can really make a measurable difference in how your business operates and how your team works together.
A well-designed office will fully shape the way your company interacts, performs and grows long-term. Many teams are prioritising layout, workspace comfort and opportunities to strengthen their corporate culture, which makes Old Street WorkRooms a strategic choice. It’s also a place that encourages you to build a positive work environment.
Wellbeing also plays a significant role. Ergonomic furniture and supportive work setups are now non-negotiables for those who spend long hours at their desks. These choices benefit productivity and long-term health, which remain central to The Old Street WorkRooms’ design.

The Heart of London’s Creative and Tech-Forward District
Old Street, often referred to as ‘Silicon Roundabout’, has become a powerhouse neighbourhood for entrepreneurs, creators and digital professionals. Its energy is fast-paced, inspiring and full of opportunity for all those who inhabit it. With easy transport links via the Northern line, countless bus routes, robust cycling paths and walkable streets, the commute is smoother and more enjoyable, offering a huge benefit if you’re trying to start the year with a better routine.
The area is also known for its endless supply of cosy cafés, exciting restaurants and cultural gems. Whether you’re grabbing a quick brunch or lunch, taking a rejuvenating break or holding an informal meeting, Old Street puts everything within reach.
If you enjoy exploring your work neighbourhood more deeply, the area is also rich with art, innovation and history. Additionally, also a vibrant social scene for after-work plans, highlighting a key part of why the district appeals to professionals.
Private Offices Designed for Productivity
A private office is a space that protects your focus, furthers your performance and supports your professional growth. At The Old Street WorkRooms, our design prioritises comfort and attention, with ergonomic seating, light-filled spaces and layouts that help you stay motivated through your busiest days.
A well-organised environment will also directly impact the quality of your work, alongside regular breaks, which can further sustain your productivity.
Wellbeing is also emphasised through our communal kitchens, relaxing lounge areas and access to healthy food options! For guidance on staying nourished during work hours, our article, Eating well at work, offers practical approaches that pair seamlessly with what’s available here at The Old Street WorkRooms.
Flexible Options That Adapt to Your Changing Goals
Modern professionals expect workspaces that can adapt as their needs change. For freelancers expanding into a small team, startups looking to scale or companies wanting stability without rigid long-term leases, we offer flexible contracts and room to grow.
Our adaptability also makes us ideal for businesses that begin with virtual office setups before transitioning into private offices. The benefits of this pathway are highlighted in our startup guide to virtual offices, a useful read if 2026 is the year your business gains momentum!

This sense of connection can be transformative, especially for people growing their careers, starting companies or transitioning into new roles.
Our community extends beyond the walls of the building too, thanks to the lively Old Street environment filled with professionals who value creativity, innovation and collaboration. It’s a district full of possibilities, contributing to why so many people love working in the capital.
