As a coworking space owner, operator, or manager, what do you hope to achieve in 2022?
We aren’t free of the pandemic by any means, but coworking and flex workspaces will continue to serve a greater need in the return to work. Employees want options for where and how they work. Employers want to attract talent with resources that empower them to work from wherever they want and can.
So here are four ways you can set your coworking space up for success in 2022:
Provide indoor bike parking. By joining a coworking space, your members are already making a choice for sustainability. They don’t have to commute as far, if at all. So if the ybike to your location, offer safe, visible parking options.
Get pre-owned furniture. While it’s tempting to fill your coworking space with the latest cool furniture designs, you can also reduce your carbon and water- footprint by sourcing pre-owned desks, phone pods, conference tables, and couches.
Look to the light. Install energy efficient lighting within your space, but also control the ambient light that comes in through windows. Use thermal film to reduce the heat impact that requires additional cooling.
Go green in the breakroom. Coffee mugs are a mainstay of coworking, but what about compostable paper products and environmentally friendly cleaning products. Skip the individually wrapped sugar packets and snacks.
