Abstract

Co-working is redefining the way we work. Around the world, people are collaborating to create a new kind of economy that supports community and innovation while preserving valuable resources. This illustrated survey of spaces dedicated to co-working features 30 of the most impressive office spaces around the world. The Google Campus in London, The HUB's global network of spaces and more off-the-radar examples such as Makeshift Society in San Francisco are just a few of the sites profiled. Each space is illustrated via a range of wide-angle and close-up shots, offering readers page after page of inspiring ideas - from a re-purposed shipping container to a beautiful cushion made from a vintage silk scarf. Whether you're daydreaming from a fourteenth-floor cubicle or looking for ideas on how to launch your own start-up, this unique book will stir your imagination as it offers endless possibilities for co-working.
