The Jointworks

Reimagining Urban Spaces: join us for Birmingham's first Park(ing) Day! 🚗➡️🌳 Park(ing) Day is a global movement that transforms ordinary parking spaces into vibrant, multifunctional areas, promoting community well-being and environmental sustainability. What started in 2005 with a small San Francisco studio turning a single parking spot into a mini park has since become a worldwide celebration of urban creativity and green spaces. This year, Define is taking part in Birmingham’s first Park(ing) Day on Friday, 20th of September! Thanks to our collaborators, we’re bringing our vision to life by installing a temporary parklet outside The Jointworks in the Jewellery Quarter, located at 45 Frederick St. Stop by, grab a coffee, connect with friends or colleagues, and relax in this refreshing public and urban green space. Let’s show how even the smallest of urban spaces can spark joy and community connections. A big thanks to our collaborators: The Jointworks, Landmark, Jewellery Quarter Business Improvement District, Whiting Landscape Limited and grounded. Birmingham! #parkingday #urbangreenspace #birmingham #community #sustainability #jewelleryquarter #urbandesign #landscapearchitecture

Have you been to The Jointworks in the Jewellery Quarter? I spent the day there on Monday working on Please Do Not Touch and I can tell you its an amazing space to work! Big thanks to Luke Tonge for joining it up (dreadful pun) - I’m super grateful! 🙌🏽

For the past 24 months, The Jointworks Albion Street provided Switch with the perfect environment to think, create and deliver.   But we decided it was time to move.   To the new The Jointworks Frederick Street, just around the corner! Same creative community, ethos and vibe but an even better space for the Switch team to do our thing.    Visit our website www.weareswitch.com Or drop us an email get.turnedon@wearswitch.com

First day in The Jointworks at their brand-new digs on 45 Fredrick St. in the #JewelleryQuarter here in Brum. And sure, we're still getting things unpacked, but this is a gorgeous place to work and a fine example of the fertile ground we have in our city for creativity. You come here because you want to work alongside amazing people in creative work or tech. You stay here because you'll never find a more supportive community than a group of Brummies in an office discussing the merits of parallax scrolling on a website. And they've got really bangin coffee from the good people over at Quarter Horse Coffee Roasters. --- I'm Andrew, a copywriter and caffeine fiend. I want to meet and write for more brilliant Birmingham businesses. Fancy a coffee in the new office? Drop me a DM. #coworking #birmingham #creative

I love the Jewellery Quarter! For the last 6 months or so AMP Structures Midlands have been based out of the The Jointworks in #Brum and I love it. But this morning I came to their new location in Fredrick St. I was worried it wouldnt have that awesome #Victorian #Warehouse style like the old place.... but fear not! Exposed brickwork and crittall windows for days!!! Come say #Hello if you're nearby!! #ShabbySheek

Happy National Freelancers Day! Very happy to be spending today co-working at The Jointworks with Anisha Mistry 💗 Two months into freelance life and I'm absolutely LOVING it. #nationalfreelancersday
