BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — Kiln, a flex-office and coworking brand with locations across the Western U.S., announced plans to open a new 43,000-square-foot coworking and lifestyle space in Bend’s Old Mill District.
The new location, set to open in spring 2026 at 501 SW Hill St. Kiln Bend will offer a mix of private offices, open and resident desks, conference rooms, and content creation studios, as well as wellness and lifestyle amenities designed to foster community and creativity.
“Bend is full of people doing meaningful work and living inspired lives,” said Alexa Ford, community director for Kiln Bend. “Our goal is to create a space that not only supports business growth but also fosters connection and balance. We’re so excited to open our doors to this community.”
