In the heart of Detroit, The Creators’ Nest stands as a beacon for artists, entrepreneurs, and creatives of all kinds. With a mission to provide a space that inspires creativity and supports the creative genius within everyone, The Creators’ Nest has quickly become a hub for innovation and artistic expression.
A Vision Brought to Life
The Creators’ Nest was founded by husband-and-wife team Adam and Stephanie Vaught. Both entrepreneurs, Adam and Stephanie, have a deep passion for hosting, entertaining, and creating. Adam, a fashion designer with a multitude of talents, understands the critical role the environment plays in harnessing creativity. Recognizing that many creatives are often discouraged from pursuing their passions, the Vaughts were determined to create a space that not only invites creativity but actively calls for it.
“Our goal was to build a space that truly supports and inspires creatives to produce their best work,” says Stephanie. “We wanted to serve Detroit’s creative community and others looking for something new and innovative that sparks their imagination.”
A Space for Every Creative Need
The Creators’ Nest offers 1200 square feet of private rental space, designed with the creative in mind. This versatile space is perfect for photo shoots, branding shoots, video and audio production, podcasts, cooking demos, art showings, book launches, and content creation. With natural light, exposed brick, and high-quality hardwood floors, the space is also ideal for meetings, retreats, and intimate gatherings.
“What sets us apart from other coworking spaces is the privacy and exclusivity we offer,” explains Adam. “When you rent The Creators’ Nest, you have the entire space to yourself, ensuring an uninterrupted and focused environment.”
In addition to the main space, The Creators’ Nest includes amenities such as a state-of-the-art kitchen, snacks, coffee, tea, water, laundry, and a full bathroom with a shower, providing comfort and convenience to all guests.
Championing Diversity and Inclusion
The Creators’ Nest is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment. Open to all creatives, regardless of race, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation, the space is designed to be a place where everyone feels valued and respected.
“We want everyone who walks through our doors to feel appreciated and empowered to bring their whole selves to their work,” says Stephanie. “Our goal is to ignite imaginations and catalyze creativity, honoring and respecting each individual.”
Success Stories and Community Impact
Since its opening, The Creators’ Nest has been the birthplace of numerous success stories. One client used the space to shoot branding and website photos for her new bakery, while another hosted a book discussion for her recently launched book. A milestone birthday photo shoot for a family member also took place within the inspiring walls of The Creators’ Nest.
The impact of The Creators’ Nest extends beyond individual success stories. By providing a versatile and supportive environment, the space contributes significantly to Detroit’s local business ecosystem. Entrepreneurs, designers, chefs, and artists can host pop-ups, showcase their work, and collaborate with other brands and artists.
“We’re proud to be a part of Detroit’s vibrant creative community,” says Adam. “By offering a dedicated space for creativity, we’re helping to fuel the local economy and support the growth of small businesses and startups.”
Looking Ahead
While expansion is a possibility for the future, the Vaughts are currently focused on getting to know their clients and providing exceptional experiences. “We’re committed to understanding the needs of our clients and ensuring they have everything they need to succeed,” says Stephanie. “Expansion may be on the horizon, but right now, we’re dedicated to perfecting what we offer.”
