What is a coworking space ?

First of all, coworking is a new social trend in the office industry. The concept is based around people working together on projects or simply having the ability to work in an open space with other people. Coworking is designed for knowledge workers, entrepreneurs and independent professionals who need a creative and productive space to work in.

In addition, serviced office space is a type of shared working space which provides a person with a professional environment to work in. A coworking space is an independent business which rents out space to individuals and companies looking for a place to work from. Coworking spaces are becoming more popular nowadays with more and more people wanting to work independently. Companies such as Google and Facebook even provide open offices for their employees which shows how much of a trend coworking is becoming.

In simple terms, a coworking space is a shared environment and a community of like-minded individuals who work at a place which offers them with a range of options and amenities.

Why work outside your home or office?

Today, flexible workspaces are becoming a popular trend for so many reasons. Maybe you need to get out of your home office to work, but you don’t want to go to a coffee shop to do so. Maybe you can’t afford to pay thousands of dollars for a private office, but you still need to have a separate space to work. Or maybe you’re a freelancer and you don’t have a permanent office, but you need more space than a coffee shop offers. Whatever the reason, coworking spaces can offer you a lot of benefits.

It turns out, the simple act of sharing work space leads to many positive effects. Shared workspace bring together people, ideas and opportunities. The people you meet in your coworking space will be your friends, colleagues and business connections, who can help you achieve your goals. The ideas you come up with will be improved by the people around you and by your community as a whole. And your opportunities will be more numerous, since more people will know about your company and will want to work with you. All of these benefits can only help your company grow fast.

However, working in a coworking space isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition, so here are some of the advantages and disadvantages of coworking spaces and how you can make the most of them.

Advantages of shared offices

A coworking space is a great place to be if you are into freelancing. It is a community of like-minded people that collaborate and help each other. Let’s have a detailed look into the benefits of a coworking space.

1. Coworking is cheaper than renting an office
2. Freedom to come when you want
3. Be part of a community of like-minded people
4. Expand your network
5. Brainstorm with creative people

The idea is that you can work in an office environment with other freelancers or self-employed people who can help you out with business decisions, give you advice on how to grow your business and share resources with you. A coworking space can help you to foster connections with other freelancers and business people in your city. It’s a great way to network and talk to people who may have the same business problems as you do and you can share advice with each other.

Disadvantages of flexible office

There is a lot of hype around coworking spaces. And while they are a great way to work and network with other people, they are not for everyone. If you need privacy and focus, a coworking space may not be the ideal solution for these three reasons.

1. Noise and distractions
2. Reduced Productivity
3. Lack of privacy

An alternative is to mix working at home and coworking. For example when you need to be focused you can work from home and when you are open to discuss and collaborate you can come to a coworking space.
