The Third Space!
Kano’s First Book Café & Hybrid Workstation
The Third Space is Kano’s premier hybrid hub, offering a soothing atmosphere for work, reading, and socialising. Whether you’re a freelancer seeking a reliable workstation, a book lover in search of your next great read, or simply someone craving a quiet café to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, we’ve got you covered.
Our Story
The Third Space was founded to bridge a gap in Kano’s vibrant cultural scene. While the city boasts a rich literary history and a growing community of creatives, it lacked a dedicated space where book lovers, freelancers, and hybrid workers could thrive. With this in mind, we created a hybrid hub, a unique blend of a bookstore, workstation, and café designed to inspire creativity and foster community.
Our name, The Third Space, reflects our mission: to provide a space distinct from home and work where people can connect, create, and recharge.
