Not at all! Kinship is for anyone working in or around the fashion industry. That includes graphic designers, marketers, photographers, writers, stylists, brand consultants, and more. We’re building an ecosystem—and we know it takes all kinds of creatives to make fashion happen.

Creative Coworking is for desk work: writing, editing, emailing, designing, researching—whatever you do with a laptop and a notebook.
Design Studio membership includes access to equipment like sewing machines and cutting tables for hands-on product development. Rest assured, the creative coworking area is also yours to use when you're not in maker-mode.

We're located in the Central Eastside district in Portland, Oregon. Our studio is easily accessible by public transit, bike, and car.

Our address is: 1121 SE 2nd Ave, Portland, Oregon 97214

Nope—and that’s on purpose. Kinship is full of movement and making. You'll hear sewing machines, steam irons, and creative conversations. It’s a lively environment made for people who feel energized by being surrounded by other creatives doing their thing.
