Rabochnaya Stantsiya
Upbeat, youthful coworking
Rabochnaya Stantsiya (Work Station) already has two spots in the city — one at ArtPlay and another in the center of Gorky Park. Both venues are bright, airy, furnished with wide plywood desks and modern furniture and offer a variety of outdoor and indoor areas for meetings and solo working. Rabochnaya Stantsiya has a youthful buzz to it — the place is as much about meeting with like-minded individuals as perfecting your PowerPoint presentation. Three levels of membership are available: Hipster (13,000 rubles per month), Freelancer (15,000 rubles per month) and Start-up (18,000 rubles per month). All include Wi-Fi, kitchen access, a work station and access to the meeting room.

Blue sky thinking
Less than five-minute's walk from Nagatinskaya metro, Svobodnoye Plavaniye (Free Floating) has just the right number of Scandinavian-style ceiling lamps and bright desk chairs to make it a nirvana for business-minded creatives.

Honed the idea for your start-up but need a little support to get the wheels turning? #tceh could be for you. The modern office space offers panoramic windows, private meeting rooms and onsite showers (if you literally work up a sweat). #tceh also hosts courses on everything from investment theory to coding. It's the kind of place where entrepreneurs share success stories and dreams for the future as they lounge on brightly colored beanbags.

DI Telegraph
Chic, central and stylish
DI Telegraph is situated inside the iconic Central Telegraph building. The venue puts a particular emphasis on facilitating collaboration between creative types and entrepreneurs, which is why coworking mixers among staff feature so highly on the list of perks that come with a monthly membership. A day will set you back 800 rubles. At the other end of the scale is the team tariff: for 99,000 rubles per month, you and your six favorite minions can access a designated desk area, hone your knowledge through expert consultations and profit from more hours in the meeting room than any sane person would wish for. Plus you get to say your office is on Tverskaya Ulitsa, which isn't too shabby.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
