== Imagining the perfect place ==
 
 
A HackerSpace should be spacious with preferably a few smaller rooms to have different projects in.
 
The Kitchen is nearly a must (see [[Social Cooking]]) but it should be a bit shielded from any other rooms to avoid any smells.
 
A Bathroom is an interesting feat.
 
The Living Room Spacious enough to have a couch and big table
 
A good public transport link is a must too
 
 
The perfect place would have:
 
* A low rent
 
* Heating
 
* Natural light / windows to open
 
* Kitchen
 
* Toilet(s)
 
* Shower
 
* Parking or at least the possibility to access it with a truck to (un)load stuff
 
* A bus stop or railway station not too far away and available till late
 
* Separate entry (not shared with the rest of the tenants) so that we can install our own access system
 
* No (or deaf) neighbors
 
* Easy to reach
 
* Some storage rooms (basement/cellar) for server
 
* Broadband Internet access
 
* Possibility to install machinery / tools for making things à la Bre
 
* Exhibition area
 
* Conference/presentation area
 
* Small room without windows/light (for photography stuff)
 
* Access to Food (either Restaurants or Markets)
