Learn more about our private officesHow Big Is A Small Private Office?
A small private office is 4-6 m2. Because the kitchen, lounges and meeting rooms are shared, the room only needs to hold your desks, chairs and storage, so you are not paying for space you don't use.
| Who it's for | Floor area | What typically fits | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| One person | 4-6 m2 | Desk, ergonomic chair, storage | Solo work and calls |
| Two people | 6-10 m2 | Two desks, two chairs, storage | Partners, co-founders, a first hire |
| Teams | 9-28 m2 | Several desks, lounge or meeting corner | Growing teams |
Main Office has private offices from 4 m2 up to 28 m2, and you can choose your furniture before you move in.

How Much Space Does One Person Need?
We recommend around 3 m2 per person for a desk, chair and room to move. Main Office's smallest private offices start at 4 m2, so even our smallest office gives one person plenty of space, and two people share a 6-10 m2 office comfortably.
A Private Office For One Person
A one person office gives you a door that locks, a desk set up for productive work and a quiet place to take calls. It gives your business a professional base to work from and meet clients, without the commitment of a long-term lease.
Who A One Person Office Suits
- Freelancers and sole traders who want to separate home and work
- Consultants, accountants and brokers handling confidential client files
- Coaches and therapists who need a private room for sessions
- Designers, writers, content creators and podcasters
- Remote workers whose employer covers a workspace

What To Check In An Office For Two
- Desk width: two people on laptops plus screens need proper desk space

- Room to grow: with 30 day rolling terms you can move into a bigger private office space when the third person arrives

- You handle confidential client files or calls
- You are on video calls for most of the day
- You want to work early, late or on weekends behind your own door
- There are two of you and you need to talk freely
- You want your own logo on the door when clients visit

What To Check Before You Rent A Small Office
Photos make every small office look the same. These are the questions that tell them apart.
How many square metres is it?
Ask for the exact m2, not "1-2 person".
How much natural light is there?
Light changes how a room feels. At Main Office, skylights and glass doors bring natural light into our private offices.
Are there hidden extras?
Check whether electricity, internet, cleaning and printing are included or charged on top.
Can you change size or leave?
Look for rolling monthly terms so you can scale up, down or leave with notice.
Can clients park?
Free visitor parking makes a small office work harder for you.
Where do you meet clients?
A small office works when meeting rooms are down the hall.
What are the access hours?
24/7 access matters if your hours are not 9 to 5.
Can you try it first?
A free trial day tells you more than any photo.
Scale Up Or Down As Your Business Changes
Main Office runs on 30 day rolling terms, so moving between offices is easy. Start in a small private office on your own, move into a bigger office when you hire, or step back down if things change. With 70 private offices from 4 m2 to 28 m2 in one building, you never have to change address to change size.
Easy Moves Between Offices
Need more room? Tell the team and we'll move you into a larger office in the same building. Your address, access and community stay the same.
No Lock-In Contracts
You are never stuck paying for space you have outgrown or no longer need. Flexible monthly terms adapt as your business grows.
