A workspace is the container everything in Bloom lives inside: your library of references, your boards, and the people who can see them. If you work solo, you may never think about workspaces at all. The moment you collaborate — or want to keep client work apart — they matter.
Personal and shared workspaces
Every user starts with a personal workspace. It's yours: your saves land there, your boards live there, and nobody else sees it unless you invite them.
You can create additional workspaces on top of that — one per client, one per team, one per side project. Each is fully separate: its own library, its own boards, its own members and guests. References in one workspace don't appear in searches in another.
Creating and switching
Create a new workspace from the workspace switcher, and use the same switcher to move between the workspaces you own or belong to. Switching is instant — no logging out, no separate accounts.
The free workspace limit
You can own up to 5 free workspaces. Two things don't count against that limit:
- Paid workspaces you own.
- Workspaces you've been invited to — joining someone else's workspace never uses one of your slots.
So the limit only bites if you're creating many free workspaces of your own. See plans and limits for what else varies by plan.
Workspace settings
Workspace settings are available to owners and admins, in two tabs:
- General — rename the workspace and set its avatar. Worth doing early if clients will see the name in invites.
- People — see members and guests, send invites, and manage roles. Details in Members & guests.
Personal account settings — your own name, notifications, connections — live separately; see account and workspace settings.
Good to know: separate workspaces are the cleanest way to guarantee client confidentiality. Someone in your "Studio" workspace can't stumble onto anything in "Client X" — the walls are absolute.
