More people are leaning on co-working spaces as the rise in remote and hybrid work makes it harder to justify full offices

Ian Chalmers , Principal, Research, Creative & Design Director of Pivot Design Group and Peter Scott Principal and Founder of Q30 Design Inc. in their shared office space in Toronto , on April 4.There’s more choice than ever for office space, but it can still be a challenge for smaller companies to find the right fit.

“You don’t need an office full time, board rooms, all that overhead, so the idea really clicked and felt like a great approach,” said Chalmers. It was then that he and Chalmers decided to team up on their search. Together, they found a spot for their combined staff of around 22 people that had 15-foot ceilings, big wooden beams and polished floors that left lots of flexibility to make it their own.

The option is still quite uncommon, in part because it does require a fair bit of co-ordination and compromise. They also had to agree on how to brand the space, which they decided simply not to do. They’ve kept it fairly neutral, and instead added some flair with murals and fun designs like a felt floral arrangement on the ceiling of the boardroom that doubles as a sound dampener.
