We are living in an increasingly digital world which is only set to grow, especially within business, as employees become more mobile with 70% of professionals working remotely at least one day a week, while 53% work remotely for at least half of the week.
For this reason, workspaces will develop in 2020 to be more adaptable and reactive than ever before which can be done either using reconfigurable furniture which can be adapted, moved around and reshaped within a space according to task and requirement or through using a community shared space.
Community office spaces are relatively new and are popping up all around the country with a recent one opening in the West Midlands, based on a Russian concept called Ziferblat. This community space is centred around the idea that it is a relaxed environment open to all which you can use as a coffee house, workspace or lounge with unlimited hot and cold drinks, snacks, games and entertainment as well as quiet spots. It works on the notion that everything is free except the time you spend there, so you just pay per minute for the time you are there.
