Your permanent kickback spot where your friends are always invited
Chef Bruno is serving pancakes in the Garden Room. Your friends are co-working, taking calls, and jamming on ideas together.
The match is on, and the Explorer’s Room has turned into a proper viewing party. Someone who was quietly working five minutes ago is now passionately yelling about offsides.
The bar opened at 5pm and a few members are pouring spritzes at the Open Bar while the playlist warms up.
You smell garlic in the air. It’s Family Dinner tonight — and your cohort is cooking. You set the table, pour a few glasses, and welcome everyone in.
The lights are low, a record is spinning, and someone just brought dessert out to the Grand Room?? You’re still here, enjoying the night. No one wants to call it, and no one’s going to.
Application
process
We’re not looking for status — we’re looking for spirit. Tell us who you are, what gets you going, and why you want to be part of a house like this.
We’ll ask you to tell us an interesting, funny or embarrassing story or fact about yourself, for example. It’s designed to be a fun and intimate way to get to know each other.
Your cohort will be your ride-or-die friends and family for the first three months as you cook, share, and learn the ins and outs of life at Maxwell together. By the end of the cohort, you’ll be interviewing new members!
