Coworking in Residential Buildings: Future Trend or Just a Passing Fad?

Arbeiten im Coworkingspace

Vienna – The COVID-19 pandemic has brought lasting changes to the way we work, and with it, new demands on modern housing. A recent master's thesis explores how the concept of "coworking within residential buildings" could serve as an alternative to traditional home offices.

Empirical data from Vienna reveals that around 20% of employed individuals who have the option to work from home would forgo a dedicated home office if an exclusive coworking space were available within their building. This could not only reduce housing costs but also increase flexibility and productivity in daily life.

The real estate industry is also showing growing interest in such innovative housing concepts. Experts see this as an opportunity to enhance the appeal of modern residential projects and meet the increasing demand for flexible workspaces integrated directly into living environments.

Whether this concept will establish itself in the long run remains to be seen – but one thing is certain: the boundaries between living and working are becoming increasingly blurred. Is coworking in residential buildings a sustainable model for the future, or just a short-lived trend?
