For businesses to thrive \u2013 not just survive \u2013 in this competitive environment, it\u2019s important to embrace the changing realities at work. With the contemporary rules of work, a coworking space could well be the conduit that germinates a good idea, giving it wings or wheels. The Awfis centre located at Sreshta Marvel in Hyderabad is a fine example of such a modern-day workspace. Here\u2019s looking at the five pillars that support the making of successful modern-day workspaces:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Driving the spirit of innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>* Location<\/strong><br \/>\nAs cities expand in all directions, location is a vital factor that cannot be over-emphasised. Since attracting the best talent is key for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to stay ahead of the game, having an office in a strategic location is often critical to success; such a location offers easy commute as well as a business address that\u2019s synonymous with ambition. The latest Awfis centre at Sreshta Marvel, in Gachibowli, Hyderabad meets the ideal location parameters and offers a prestigious business address which also serves as a window into the business\u2019s vision for growth among potential clientele.<\/p>\n<p>With its 200+ workstations at reasonable and flexible rental charges, located strategically in the heart of Hyderabad, the Awfis centre\u2019s fully functional offices with hi-tech infrastructure invite a diverse workforce. The area isn\u2019t just home to some of the city\u2019s best IT and corporate parks, but also offers ample of recreational opportunities for professionals. This promotes interesting collaborations, networking and business opportunities between uniquely skilled individuals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Work-life balance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The nature of entrepreneurial work, whether you are working independently, with a start-up, or a mid-sized company, demands that you have a dynamic and flexible schedule. \u00a0Therefore, it becomes important that offices factor in this need for work-life balance or even better, work-life integration.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5795\" src=\"https:\/\/www.https:\/\/www.awfis.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_3835072871.jpg.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/hyd4-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2999\" height=\"100%\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ingrained in Awfis\u2019s brand ethos, which is \u2018Where work meets life\u2019, the Gachibowli coworking space offers such a unique work environment by offering a sense of quiet as well as the opportunity to unwind with various formal and informal events. In fact, the collab zone is a dedicated area designed for professionals to come together and not just ideate, but also unwind together. It is often used to host community experiences, retail popups, festive celebrations or simply for networking within the community. Further, the centre\u2019s location makes it plausible for professionals putting in long hours to step out for recreation and relaxation without losing precious time on commute.<\/p>\n<p>* <strong>Design <\/strong><strong>Philosophy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Conventional office spaces that house single organisations invariably suffer the brunt of hierarchy, isolation, and low self-motivation levels. On the other hand, community working promotes harmonious co-existence and collaboration opportunities, facilitating professional growth. Individuals thrive when they have an elevated work experience and exercise a degree of autonomy, essential qualities for a modern organization to succeed at fast decision making and agility.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the centre is designed in a manner that individuals have equal access to both \u2013 a sense of privacy and quiet as well adequate interaction areas for discussions and inspiration. \u00a0It features functional seating plans, armed with contemporary work stations as well as a thoughtfully designed collab zone, cabins and meetings rooms. Bright, uncluttered and spacious, the coworking space adapts to the millennial mind-set. Sound-proof meeting pods on the other hand ensure adequate privacy for those one-on-one undisturbed conversations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>* Aesthetics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aesthetics also play a key role in defining the energy of any work space and subsequently, those who work there. The Awfis centre is based on inspiration drawn from warehouse-type architecture known as industrial chic. The use of raw wood, industrial light fittings, Brooklyn-glazed partitions, texture paint, etc. create a mood that&#8217;s synonymous with collaboration. There\u2019s ample storage space to eliminate cluttered work tables. The fixed desk spaces and premium cabins offer pedestal storage, white boards and pin-up boards, while flexible desk spaces are spread across the vibrant community table setup. Low-hanging bulbs adorn the ceilings, complementing the earthy hues of the mustard and grey interiors.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5798\" src=\"https:\/\/www.https:\/\/www.awfis.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_3835072871.jpg.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/hyd7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"604\" height=\"403\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.https:\/\/www.awfis.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/shutterstock_3835072871.jpg.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/hyd5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2999\" height=\"100%\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>* Products<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Agile businesses demand access to state-of-art technology and infrastructure facilities, such as high-speed WIFI, video projection, video conferencing, high speed internet, laser printing and the like. The option to work beyond conventional office hours are the other vital demands.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Entry into the Awfis premises is allowed only through Near-Field Communication- (NFC) based access cards.

Coworking spaces are paving the way for informal work environments that facilitate maximum productivity and nurture a learning-rich community of modern professionals. Because work should be a pleasurable activity, not a chore.
