Moran & Cato Loft
The story of Moran & Cato Loft began in 2014, when Ric Rossi moved his design practice from a home office into this spacious, light-filled Fitzroy coworking space.

Extra-large desks give members generous personal space with room to spread out and focus, while shared amenities, including a communal kitchen, meeting room, shower facilities and secure bike storage make day-to-day work seamless. Fresh cross-breezes and elevated views across Fitzroy give the space a calm, open atmosphere.
