Luxury + Retail Shared Co-Working Spaces May Be Coming Soon

The past year has forced many of us to rewrite the rules about how we work and every week I get more questions from anxious leaders and empowered workers alike about what the future of work will look like. Most say it will be hybrid, where employees have more autonomy over how and where they work.

Assuming this is true, the announcement that WeWork will partner with several Saks Fifth Avenue retail locations to create a stylish co-working space seems to be perfect timing. This blend of retail space and working space integrating together may be something we will see even more pronounced in the coming months, which could be a great thing.

I'd personally love to see a co-working space co-habitate with a bookstore and coffee shop. A place like that would quickly become my new favorite place to work.
