Innovate Coworking Space

Berlin, Germany Office 3,000 sqm 2022

Project Overview

Innovate Coworking Space is a dynamic, forward-thinking workspace located in the creative district of Berlin. This 3,000 square meter facility was designed to foster collaboration, creativity, and productivity for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small teams.

Flourish Furniture was commissioned to create a vibrant and flexible furniture solution that would appeal to the diverse community of tech startups, creative professionals, and remote workers who would be using the space daily.

Client Needs

The client required a highly adaptable furniture ecosystem that could support various work styles, foster community interactions, and create distinct zones while maintaining a cohesive design identity.

Our Solution

We developed a comprehensive furniture program featuring modular, reconfigurable elements that blend playful aesthetics with practical functionality, creating a workspace that adapts to users' changing needs.

Results

The space achieved 95% occupancy within three months of opening, with members specifically citing the furniture design and comfort as key factors in their decision to join the coworking community.

Our Solution

Working closely with the client's interior design team and management, we developed a furniture solution that supports the innovative, community-focused nature of modern coworking while ensuring durability and adaptability.
