What to consider when designing a coworking space?
Becoming successful in the coworking sector relies on a comprehensive strategy for your space.
To be the best in the market you need to offer your clients a facility that considers how you will accommodate many different member types whilst identifying your brand.
01
Space Utilisation
An essential aspect of coworking design revolves around optimising space to offer cutting-edge working facilities. Since revenue is primarily generated from desk rentals, achieving maximum density in the office is crucial while avoiding overcrowding.
While a typical London office typically allocates about 8 square metres per person, successful coworking spaces aim to lower this ratio to approximately 5 square metres per person. However, not all buildings are inherently equipped to provide this level of flexibility in design.
providing a return on your investment
Coworking spaces differ from regular working environments, in that every square foot needs to work towards optimised ROI on a space, balancing the luxury of space with commercial return.
What does an office fit out involve?
An office fit-out involves the installation of a new or reimagined workspace. The available office fit-out services cater to different occupancy stages within a building. Our office fit-out contractors will manage the project through each stage, ensuring thorough oversight and successful execution.
How much does an office fit-out cost?
Your space and office fit-out needs are distinct and play a crucial role in determining the overall project costs.
We suggest arranging a consultation with our office fit-out specialists for a more thorough analysis. Contact our team to schedule your consultation.
What is a CAT A fit out?
A Cat A fit-out offers an enhanced finish beyond the Shell and Core standard. This encompasses features like raised floors, suspended ceilings, internal surfaces, and fundamental mechanical and electrical services. Although Cat A spaces include flooring and walls, their finish is typically basic, often adhering to an industrial standard.
What is a CAT B Fit out?
A Cat B fit out provides you with a workplace that’s ready to move into. During your Cat B fit out, this is where you design your floor plan, finishing and ultimately design your office! It can be an exciting and transformational time for your business.
Your Cat B fit out will cover everything from interior partitions to ceiling design, staircase installation and choosing your furniture if needed. You’ll also choose the final finish for the floors, walls and doors to reflect your corporate culture and branding.
