Kiln, a co-working and flex-office community with locations in multiple western U.S. states, is opening its first space in Washington state next year.
The company confirmed a new lease of 32,276 feet in Seattle’s Fremont Lake Union Center on North 34th Street. The opening is planned for fall 2026.
According to Kiln, the location will be able to accommodate more than 350 members in a neighborhood that is home to offices for nearby tech companies including Google, Tableau, Adobe and others.
Kiln will open reservations soon for a variety of membership types. Its workspaces include dedicated individual desks, shared desks, private offices, conference rooms and more, suitable for people working solo, larger teams and growing startups.
Amenities in other locations include bike storage, parenting rooms, phone booths, fully stocked kitchens, mail services, gym access, showers and more.
Based in Salt Lake City, Kiln will have 25 locations by the time Seattle opens. The next closest locations are in Portland and Bend, Ore.
Kiln will compete against a number of co-working companies in the Seattle area, including Portland-based Centrl Office, which took over a WeWork location in a historic building on Capitol Hill last year; and The Pioneer Collective, which is opening a new co-working space in a former fish cannery along the Lake Washington Ship Canal.
Seattle ranks No. 12 among U.S. cities as measured by total co-working square footage across 153 locations, according to CoworkingCafe, which noted that the broader sector is shifting to a “more measured and optimized footprint” after growing over the past two years.
