A seat in the house.
Your life will be shaped by roughly twelve relationships. Almost no one chooses them on purpose. Here, you do — among people who keep showing up for one another.
How membership works
There is no membership tier and nothing to buy your way into. Members contribute an annual sum toward the rooms they attend — discussed openly in the first conversation, never listed as a price. Retreats and the House are costed separately, at cost. Nothing is paid before you are accepted: contributions begin only once an invitation is issued and accepted.
Why people come
You have the network. You are missing the room.
Networking optimises for volume.
We optimise for the twelve.
Nine rooms, one address
The House is one address with nine doors. Three are open to the city, one stays open all year, three are composed by invitation inside the Circolo app, and two are built on request. Most people begin at Move 33 or Meet 88 and travel inward from there.
Open to the city
The House
Meet 88
The open door
A temporary residence in a city during its week: three or four days, two or three authored moments a day, dawn to late. The widest room we run.
Two to four a year · 40 to 150 a moment
The Room
Learn 55
The evening of teaching
One practitioner, one subject, and a room of people who came to learn rather than to be seen. Questions from the floor, no panel.
Two to four a year · 55 seats
The Move
Move 33
The weekly ritual
A run at first light, then coffee. The same hour every week is the whole point, and it is the one room you can enter without an introduction.
Weekly · 33 people
Open, and by invitation
The Place
Stay 22:22
The address that stays open
A standing room in the city, held with the houses and makers we work with, where the evening does not end at a scheduled hour.
Standing, all year
Members - by invitation
The Taste
Taste 22
The daylight table
Twenty-two seats, one long table, coffee taken seriously. Culture leads and commerce is never the reason for the invitation.
Monthly · 22 seats
The Dine
Belong 11
11:11, the monthly table
One table of eleven, one evening, once a month. No stage, no panel, no programme - the composition of the table is the work.
Monthly · 11 seats
The Journal
Go 8
The journey
Eight to sixteen people leave the city together for several days: one host throughout, a private residence, one extraordinary thing handled each day.
Two to four a year · 8 to 16 guests
By approval
The Page
Advise 4
The counsel
Four people around one question that matters, and it is yours. Written first, answered in private, closed properly.
On request · 4 people
The Project
Build 1
The commission
One relationship architecture built end to end: the brief, the room, and the year that follows it.
One at a time
Nothing is paid before you are accepted. In the open rooms you cover what you consume, or a partner does. Inside the app a seat is offered, never sold.
“You cannot network your way into belonging. You can only be invited — and then show up, again and again.”

How membership works
It stays small, and it lasts.
These numbers hold across all four rituals — 11:11, The Taste 22, The Journal and The House. Membership is a two-year rhythm of rooms, not a single event.

the minimum horizon we ask for
There is no membership tier and nothing to buy your way into. Members contribute an annual sum toward the rooms they attend — discussed openly in the first conversation, never listed as a price. Retreats and the House are costed separately, at cost. Nothing is paid before you are accepted: contributions begin only once an invitation is issued and accepted.
The year ahead.
2026 · by invitationFinal locations and dates are released to members first. A seat is offered, never sold — if a room fits you, the invitation comes personally. In 2027 the year repeats: 11:11 and The Taste 22 monthly, a third year of The House, and The Journal in four seasons — locations named once the sites are signed.
Memoria · the members' platform
The house travels with you.
Memoria is Circolo's private platform — an app and member system built for the people already at the table. It is where the year lives between the rooms.
- Invitations and RSVPs for every room you are composed into.
- Who else will be in the room, and why the pairing was made.
- What was said: notes, introductions and the follow-through afterwards.
- The people you have met, kept as a private circle rather than a contact list.
Memoria is not sold and cannot be downloaded from the outside. Access is issued with the invitation, and closes when the relationship does.
How an invitation works
You write to us
A few honest lines: who you are, what you are building, and who sent you — if anyone.
We read, then we listen
One conversation, no pitch. We are looking for character and reciprocity, not titles.
A room finds you
When a table fits, the invitation comes personally. There is no waiting list to buy your way onto.
The record, in numbers
No guest list. A record instead.
We publish what has run and at what size — never who was in the room.
