One of the most exciting domains of the commercial real estate sector
is the emergence of co-working spaces.
A mushrooming trend in India, it has changed the face of how entrepreneurs,
start-ups and now big corporations work. With 2020 being hard on all sectors
including co-working 2021 looks promising already. Covid-19 has paved the way
for Wolfpack, the best co-working space
Bangalore and Kochi cities are talking about, lists the top 5 Co-working trends in
2021.
1. Flexible workspaces
Tough times call for quick adaption. No wonder one of the most
significant changes has been a demand for flexible workspaces. Adhering to the compliance of social distancing and
maintaining safety India Inc. has started to work in shifts. Irrespective of
the size and strength of the organization companies are introducing flexible
accessibility of workspaces to their agenda. In such an environment shared office space proves to be highly
versatile options where quick modifications and downsizing has been made
possible. With the plug-and-play feature, employees have the option to work at
their own pace in a stimulating and collaborative environment.

The design philosophy of co-working companies has tweaked
to accommodate a roomy and airy environment for the users. Designs and
architecture are updated to allow a safe distance and provide a healthy work
environment. Several co-working spaces
have placed desks far apart, with ample distance to support a sustainable
workspace environment. Touch-free fixtures and privacy are
prioritized in large metros and busy commercial locations with more indoor
plants and green areas to catch fresh air.
In stressful times the pressure of maintaining
productivity increases. Shared office
spaces acknowledge this and are increasingly introducing the concept of
physical and mental wellbeing for their users. There is a positive attempt to
create a work-life balance in the office
space through meditative studios, open sit-outs in the green areas, measures
to ensure comfort through good aesthetics and interior design, fresher air and
lesser pollution are now evident.
4. Mushrooming Tier-2 & 3 market
The migrant population who worked from home all of last
year is now looking to work from a more convenient location while still living
in the home town. This attitude shift has seen a surge of co-working spaces
mushroom in tier 2 cities like Coimbatore, Vizag, Ahmedabad, Pune, Vadodara,
Surat, Indore etc. With a strong foothold in the existing industry, co-working
space owners have a great opportunity to focus on smaller cities and grow their
business.
5. Digitally enabled office spaces
The pandemic has established new rules of the game. The
conventional working model for most businesses has seen a technological
face-lift. Most co-working spaces
will soon offer next gen-office technology and collaboration tools to create a
customized and seamless office experience. Just like how an app knits all the
employees of a company together, a digitally enabled workspace will collaborate the office, co-working, and WFH through
technologies such as automation, mobility, artificial intelligence (AI) and
Internet-of-Things (IoT)
