The rise of coworking continues – along with awesome innovations and perks!

Stale cubicle farms are so outdated, to say the least. The future of work continues blossoming into a far more exciting office life, thanks to the rise of coworking spaces. 2024 is seeing these dynamic workspaces evolve at lightning speed, with trends tailored to every kind of professional (you!). 

So, grab your iced coffee and settle in, because we’re diving into the hottest trends in coworking for 2024.

Beyond the Beige

Remember the era of one-size-fits-all offices? It’s officially as antiquated as dial-up internet! Enter the rise of niche coworking spaces. Coworking spaces are thinking more about their interior design and vibes to create a unique space that’s joyful, welcoming and comfortable. Such design is also curated to spark creativity and productivity. 

At VIDA Coworking, our workspaces in Portland and Beaverton feature a vibrant palette, plush seating and on-trend accents for an overall stylish feel that our Members and their guests love. 

Going Green

Mother Nature is proud. Sustainable coworking spaces are sprouting like bamboo, embracing solar panels, rainwater harvesting and even vertical gardens. Upcycled furniture gets a second life, and bike racks replace gas-guzzlers. 

Think air-purifying plants, beams of natural light flooding in, meditation spaces and recycling programs – all of which are eco-friendly practices employed by VIDA. This environmental consciousness is all about working in harmony with the planet, and with your well-being.

Greater Tech-Enabled Coworking

Coworking spaces are becoming tech havens, boasting seamless high-speed internet, AI-powered booking systems, virtual work environments and keyless entry. Think on-demand meeting rooms, digital whiteboards and wireless printers at your beck and call. It’s a frictionless work experience that frees your mind and time for greater productivity.

Suburban Coworking Spaces

Cities and business districts are no longer the only hubs for coworking spaces. Suburban and small-town coworking spaces are booming, offering remote workers escape from the city madness and closer-to-home havens. This opens up the world of coworking to a whole new swarm of professionals, revitalizing communities beyond the bustling metropolis.

In fact VIDA opened our suburban workspace last year! We branched beyond Portland, Oregon, and to Beaverton, Oregon

Onsite F&B Revolutionizes Lunch Breaks

One trend sizzling with potential is the rise of onsite food and beverage (F&B) options in coworking spaces. Variety and comfortablity are the keys here. So kitchens like VIDA Cafe are inviting and welcome water cooler chats. But instead of a water cooler, there’s a coffee and tea bar, tons of energy-fueling snacks, kombucha and more. This convenience and variety fosters fosters social interaction, offers mid-day pick-me-ups and eliminates the dreaded lunchtime scramble.

Wellness Takes Center Stage

Trade in your stress ball for a pool float, because coworking spaces are incorporating resort-like amenities. Think onsite gyms, concierge services to handle business tasks and errands, and even rooftop terraces with breathtaking views. All of which are available at VIDA, BTW. 

This holistic approach of, as we like to say, “Making Life/Work” lets you prioritize your well-being, recharge between tasks, and enjoy a bit of luxury without leaving the workspace.
