Thanks to the development of digital tools and high-speed Internet, the 21st century has seen the birth of a new category of workers. Mobile, nomadic and connected workers, also known as "those without a fixed office" according to the famous expression of sociologist Bruno Marzloff. To meet these new behaviors and needs, many alternative workspaces have been developed in France since the early 2010s (third places, fab labs, working cafes...) but the best known of them are undoubtedly the coworking spaces. A successful model that is used most of the time to network, learn from others and reinvent themselves.
If the offer is now plethora with nearly 1,800 spaces listed on the national territory, some spaces are however distinguished by their innovative and service approach. Discover our Top 5 of the most innovative coworking spaces.

Kwerk Haussmann, rue de Courcelles, Paris 8th
Beyond the narrative design of the spaces with Nigerian prints, it is the well-being of the occupants that illustrates this address. The green lobby, overlooked by the imposing La Verrière imagined and designed by Albert Angel, evokes the shelter into which nomadic workers are invited to enter. Far from the stress of the capital, the space is more like a hotel lobby than a classic office space. Balinese and Indian influences also brighten up the space and reinforce the feeling of well-being of the community members.
The innovation of these spaces lies in their differentiation and in the wellness and well-being programs provided by Kwerk, whose coaches are Group employees. This is an almost therapeutic vision of workstations and the work environment, where physical and mental well-being are key elements of performance at work. In this space, we no longer speak of Coworking, but of wellworking.

WeWork La Fayette, rue la Fayette, Paris 9ème
A few blocks from the Gare Saint-Lazare and the Grands Boulevards, in an Art Deco building, the WeWork La Fayette coworking spaces are revealed. An ultra flexible and agile coworking center with an American influence. Some even consider it one of the most beautiful coworking spaces in the capital. The view from the 8th floor is probably not for nothing since it offers a surprising panorama on Pigalle and Montmartre, and comes to make us appreciate the extra hours on the terrace. This coworking giant manages to revolutionize work spaces into effervescent communities. Spread over 8 floors, the premises offer a wide variety of spaces for the pleasure of large accounts, employees and young creators. The services offered are high-end and complete. WeWork even supplies its members with office supplies.
L'Espace is innovative in both its size and the quality of its services, which are constantly being updated. The Covid-19 pandemic has enabled the Group to reinforce the sanitary safety of its workspaces with reinforced cleaning services, contactless dispensers of hydro-alcoholic gel, adjusted HVAC standards, etc. Another innovation - and example of inclusion - to note: assistance and guide dogs are allowed in the spaces. Welcome to the coworking spaces of the future.
