Red Umbrella Seating Area at 2727 Coworking

Our shared lounge gives you a place to pause, catch up with a colleague or settle into an informal conversation between tasks. The red umbrella, white chairs and grasslike green rug bring a playful touch to the workspace, with glass-partitioned rooms and desks just beyond. You stay close to the working day while having somewhere comfortable to step away from your workstation. It’s part of how we make room for both focused work and the conversations that happen around it.
For freelancers, independent professionals and occasional visitors, our hot desks and day passes offer flexible ways to work here in Griffintown, beside the Lachine Canal. With a hot-desk membership, you can choose an available workstation or lounge seat each visit and use the shared kitchen and refreshments. A day pass gives you single-day access to our open-concept workspace, gigabit internet and artisanal coffee, making it easy to fit a productive day into your schedule.
About this photo
A red umbrella above a green seating area
The red umbrella is the first thing that draws your eye in this photograph of 2727 Coworking. Its open canopy spreads across the centre of the image, with black ribs visible underneath. A slender dark pole runs down to a round weighted base on the floor. Against the white ceiling and pale walls, the red fabric gives this part of the interior a clear visual identity.
Below it, two white chairs sit on a large rectangular green rug. Their curved seats, broad backs and angled legs give them a simple, sculpted shape. They face slightly inward, creating an arrangement that looks suited to sitting down for a brief conversation or taking a pause between tasks.
The rug has a dense, grasslike texture, bringing an outdoor reference into the room alongside the umbrella. Together, these elements make the seating area easy to recognise within the wider workspace. For someone browsing the gallery before a visit, this photograph offers a useful view of its position among the surrounding offices and desks.
The foreground and the path around the chairs
Starting at the bottom of the photograph, pale wood-look flooring stretches across the foreground. The green rug begins just beyond it, with its edges defining the seating area. The change in colour and texture makes the chairs feel grouped together even though the surrounding floor remains open.
The umbrella base sits between the chairs, slightly forward of the pole’s alignment with the dark column behind it. Each chair has room around its legs, and the rug extends beyond the seating on both sides. This gives the composition a relaxed feel, with the furniture spaced across the green surface.
At the right edge, a plant with long, narrow leaves rises from a dark, angular planter. Some leaves overlap the view of the rug and the workspace beyond. Behind the umbrella pole, another narrow-leaved plant stands in a white pot near the central column.
The floor continues around the rug, including a broad visible route along its left side. That surrounding strip helps explain the layout: the seating occupies a defined patch within a larger interior, while the neighbouring rooms remain visible from this viewpoint.
Glass rooms along the left side
Moving from the seating area toward the left, a row of glass partitions introduces another part of the coworking interior. Dark frames outline the doors and glazed panels, making their edges easy to follow. Through the glass, tables, high stools and framed wall pictures are visible.
The closest glass room has a light-coloured table surface and stools with footrests. Farther along, additional glazed sections extend toward the back of the photograph. A potted plant stands near one of the doorways, adding greenery beside the more regular lines of the frames.
These transparent walls give the photograph depth. Your eye can move from the open floor into the rooms and then toward the brighter windows beyond. The dark framing also connects visually with the umbrella’s pole and ribs, the ceiling strips and the central column.
For a visitor considering a private office, this part of the image provides a look at the glass-partitioned rooms within the interior. Private offices are among the services offered by 2727 Coworking, alongside dedicated desks, hot desks and day passes.
White partitions and desks in the background
Across the middle ground, low white partitions form a backdrop to the chairs. Narrow dark shelves mounted on their fronts hold upright printed materials and small plants. The shelves add details at eye level without dominating the seating area.
A tall dark column stands near the centre, partly hidden by the umbrella. White partition sections extend to either side of it. This arrangement creates several overlapping layers: chairs in front, plants and display shelves behind, and work surfaces farther back.
On the right, the view opens onto desks with computer monitors and office chairs. The chairs have dark frames, with red upholstery visible on one of them. This corner gives the photograph a practical working context alongside the more casual foreground seating.
Following the scene from left to right, you can see glass rooms, the central seating area and desks beyond the partitions. That variety helps a prospective member picture the interior while comparing the coworking’s available options. Dedicated desks and hot desks are offered here, and the wider service range includes a bookable conference room and virtual mailbox or business address services.
Materials, light and the feel of the layout
The photograph brings together several contrasting surfaces. The chairs are smooth and white, the umbrella is bright red fabric, and the rug has a soft, uneven green texture. Around them, the wood-look floor introduces a warmer tone. Glass and dark framing give the rooms on the left a more linear appearance.
Above, long black strips cross the pale ceiling. Small spotlights shine from these darker bands, while a recessed ceiling section on the left carries a bright line of light. Daylight also enters through the glazed areas along that side of the room. These sources illuminate the white partitions and help the red umbrella stand out.
The ceiling’s long lines and the floor’s open stretches make the relationship between the seating and surrounding work areas readable. The rug provides a visual boundary, while the umbrella adds height and colour above it. Plants repeat the green accent in several places.
For someone deciding whether to visit, the photograph is especially useful for understanding this seating arrangement. Its inward-facing chairs suggest a place for an informal exchange or a short seated break. The nearby desks and glass rooms show how that setting relates visually to the rest of the coworking interior.
The coworking’s Griffintown and Lachine Canal setting
This interior belongs to 2727 Coworking at 2727 rue Saint-Patrick in Montreal, Quebec. The address is in Griffintown, beside the Lachine Canal. That location gives visitors a clear neighbourhood reference when planning a visit, booking a conference room or considering an office.
The coworking is in Walter sur Atwater, a modern building built in 2014. The pale finishes, glass partitions and geometric ceiling details visible in this photograph provide a view of the interior within that setting. The red umbrella, green rug and plants add softer shapes and colour to the surrounding architectural lines.
