Workspaces
Personal workspace versus team workspace. What changes when you switch, and why team workspaces are the right home for shared client work.
Each Intangible account has a personal workspace plus zero or more team workspaces. The dropdown at the top-left of the homepage switches between them. Switching workspaces changes what you see: different projects, different shared assets, different team members, different billing.

What it does
Personal and team workspaces are separate spaces. A project in your personal workspace is invisible from a team workspace and vice-versa. Team Assets, custom styles, and shared library items live in their team's workspace; they don't migrate when you switch. The intent is clean separation between what's yours and what's shared.
How to switch
The workspace dropdown sits at the top-left of every workspace, under the Intangible logo. Click; a list of every workspace you belong to appears. Click one to switch.
When you switch:
The projects below the homepage fold change to that workspace's projects.
The asset library's My Assets and Team Assets categories swap to that workspace's assets.
Custom styles in the picker swap to that workspace's saved styles.
The credit counter shows that workspace's balance.
Notifications scope to that workspace.

No collaboration
Multi-user editing, owner / member permissions
If you're working solo, personal is fine. The moment a teammate or a contractor needs to be in the project with you, you need a team workspace, which requires a Business plan. See Plans and billing.
When to use which
Personal: prototyping, learning, anything that won't go to a client.
Team: client work, agency work, anything that requires multi-user editing or shared review.
For agency creatives, the common pattern is one team workspace per client (or per major client engagement). Saves cross-contamination of assets and credits, and lets you invite client-side reviewers as members of just their team.
Once you create a team workspace, your default project home shifts to that workspace. You can still work in personal at any time by switching, but the team becomes the active default. Unselect by switching back.
Limits and known issues
No cross-workspace asset sharing. A custom style or imported model in Team A doesn't appear in Team B. Re-save in each workspace where you need it.
Credit balances are per-workspace. Personal credits don't subsidize team credits and vice-versa.
No way to convert a personal project into a team project. Once a project lives in a workspace, it stays there. Recreate in the other workspace if you need to move.
