For three years our members have had two ways to make office coffee. On the left of the kitchen counter sits a one-button Nespresso Vertuo with eight to ten capsules to choose from. On the right sits a Breville Barista Express loaded with premium beans, where you grind, dose, tamp, pull the shot, knock out the puck and wipe down. We expected people to argue about which machine made better office coffee. Instead they quietly sorted themselves into two routines, and the thing that decided which routine they picked had surprisingly little to do with how good the [...]

Getting the virtual office address format right is the difference between mail that lands in your box the same afternoon and mail that sits in a sorting pile with a question mark on it. Every week our front desk logs envelopes addressed to a first name only, to a company name that is not the one on file, or to a suite that does not exist.

That is exactly why every number below links to the study it came from, and why the last section is honest about what the evidence does not show. Short version: the benefits of coworking come from regular, coordinated time in a workplace, not from five days a week at a desk. The benefits of coworking get described in vague terms: community, energy, vibe. Those words do not help anyone decide whether to keep paying for a [...]
