CO-WORKING & CO-LIVING

Live and work differently

Are you ready to switch up your home and workspace for an entirely new environment? Change it, spice it up!

Co-working

Work in the top co-working space of the city

A co-working office is a workspace where individuals from various professions and backgrounds work side by side. It's more than just a place to set up a laptop – it's a collaborative hub where freelancers, entrepreneurs, and remote workers gather to share ideas and connect. What you can expect is 24/7 access to the office; desks (in open space), possibility to rent a desk monitor, phone boots & meeting rooms for your meetings, a central location in the city - and a sunny outdoor (rooftop) terrace.

Housing

Live in our carefully selected housing options

Our apartments in Barcelona and co-living spaces in Cape Town are fully furnished. Barcelona apartments are shared with 1-2 others, while the Cape Town co-living offers private bedrooms and bathrooms alongside shared kitchen and living areas, striking a perfect balance of privacy and coziness.

WE ARE SWEET SPOT

We foster job happiness by connecting the needs of employers & employees

The needs of the current generations of employees have changed compared to previous generations. They value job happiness more. Compared to the past, job happiness is increasingly associated with development – in the broadest sense of the word. Development entails more than just deepening skillsets through training programs. It also involves finding inspiration through new encounters and connections, as well as exposure to different perspectives and cultures. Workplace flexibility plays a key role in this aspect and is, therefore, gaining more significance in enhancing job happiness.

 

We understand the importance of job happiness and that’s why we connect the changing needs of both companies and employees. For this reason, we have designed Remote Development Experiences that have a significant impact on both the company and their employees.

 

Within our environment, networking, inspiration, and peer learning are encouraged. We stimulate employees to step outside their comfort zone and explore new ideas and perspectives. This approach not only fuels growth but also enhances their job happiness.
