5 Benefits of Coworking Spaces for Remote Workers

Traditional offices are no longer the norm due to the global pandemic and we have shifted into the remote working model. Coworking is the bridge to the future – healthily balancing working and home life.

“Nevertheless, it’s imperative to realize that most remote work arrangements were assembled in an ad hoc fashion on the basis of necessity and that many of them weren’t built to last. This means that remote work will likely remain popular in the future, but that remote work arrangements will manifest themselves in a very different fashion than what we’re seeing right now.” Entrepreneur, Europe

At Uncommon, wellbeing is always at the heart of everything we do. Our coworking spaces stretch beyond these margins and we value providing full flexibility, human connection, productivity and wellness for our members. 

In this article, we’ll explore the 5 benefits of coworking spaces for remote workers and why Uncommon may be the perfect fit.

1. Flexibility

We have all had to adapt quickly to the change in our work culture and be flexible to fit new working circumstances.

At Uncommon, we offer a range of memberships to fit your exact requirements. Whether you need a hot desk or a full private office set-up, we will guide you every step of the way. Pick the location (Highbury, Liverpool Street, Fulham & Borough) that’s best for you.

2. Office design

Who wants to work in a cubicle facing a grey wall? Our workspaces emphasise the importance of having a supportive working environment. All of the private offices at Uncommon are curated specifically to fit your needs.

Ergonomics

Supporting not just your physical body, but your overall wellness too. High chairs, low chairs, desk chairs, swing chairs, standing desks – the list goes on. Everything has been carefully selected to help your posture, give you room to freely move and feel comfortable.
