From leafy walls to cosy lounge corners, co-working spaces are evolving to feel more human, calming, and inspiring. Here are some of the standout design directions we’ve noticed in our recent projects:
Biophilic Design & Nature Connection
The inclusion of greenery such as plant features or flower walls alongside natural light, vividly reflects the biophilic design movement. This approach, which integrates nature directly into built environments, is proven to reduce stress, enhance mood, and elevate focus.
Natural Materials & Earthy Aesthetic
Wooden upholstered furniture paired with bright, muted tones to create a calm and grounded atmosphere. Subtle palettes and natural textures make the coworking space feel welcoming, warm, and emotionally connected – aligning with the trend toward more human-centred, inviting environments.
Cosy & ‘Resimercial’ Design
Warm upholstered sofas and lounge chairs set against clean, neutral backdrops and accented with muted tones foster a homely, comfortable vibe. These choices create a space that feels more like a welcoming living room than an office – capturing the “resimercial” trend, where coworking spaces are designed to blend residential comfort with professional functionality.
Prioritising Employee Wellness: Outdoor Spaces
Providing access to outdoor areas, rooftop gardens, or terraces gives employees a place to relax, recharge, and connect with nature. Integrating these spaces into coworking environments supports wellbeing, encourages informal collaboration, and enhances overall workplace satisfaction.
Co-working isn’t just about where we work anymore – it’s about how these spaces make us feel. Explore more of our workspace projects here.
