FAQ

Coworking is where work meets play. Basically, there are four ingredients:

1. Flexble workspaces
   Coworking gets you out of those never-ending lease agreements. Instead, you can pick and choose from various office setups – and change as your business evolves. It’s all about tailoring your workspace to fit your exact needs – right now.

2. Sharing is caring
   The whole idea with coworking is sharing workspace and functions intelligently. Your company might not need a full-on kitchen, a swanky bar, a coffee wonderland, an outdoor gym, or a conference room all to itself. But hey, you’d still love to have access to all that good stuff, right? By sharing it with other companies, you get access to all the workplace pizzazz at a better, more budget-friendly price. And hey, it’s pretty good for the climate as well. So, everybody wins. Literally.

3. Network included
   In a coworking space, you naturally become a part of a bigger network of people and businesses. You’ll bump into each other at the coffee machine, at events, and during activities. Who knows what’s next? Maybe it’s a casual lunch, an after-work hangout, or a brand-new collaboration.

4. Delegate the grunt work
   A membership with us includes all the office services you can (or cannot) think of. Someone else takes care of cleaning, deals with the internet connection, and makes sure there’s always ink in the printer, paper in the bathroom, and coffee in the brewer. So you can focus on what you do best – your work.

Regular Office Hotels are all about designating every square inch to productive office space. You share few or no spaces with others.

With Coworking on the other hand, you get a private office (which many United Spaces members do), but you also share other areas, like the lounge, front desk area, and meeting rooms. Plus, you get to be part of this great network of businesses, with a ton of extra perks, inspiring atmosphere and new connections.

Unlike Office Hotels, coworking is the whole package. It includes everything from events and lunchtime workouts to breakfast buffets and after-work gatherings (that you can enjoy every week, without the hassle of arranging them).

Office Hotels are typically a temporary solution. And sure, coworking can be temporary too, thanks to flexible contracts. However, at United Spaces, our members tend to stick around for years anyway. Maybe they stay because they like it? We like to think so.

There are plenty of upsides to coworking.

No more long leases

One big advantage with coworking is that you get rid of those never-ending lease agreements. You rent exactly what your business needs and change things as it evolves. At United Spaces, you’ll find private offices (both small and big), dedicated desks, and comfy lounge spots. We’re all about customising the workspace around you. Not the other way around.

Economical and earth-friendly

Sharing some of your office spaces with others is not just cost-effective, it’s also kind of great for the planet. You get the best of everything at a cheaper overall price, which probably will work fine with your bottom line as well.

Multiple work environments – one office

With coworking, you have access to a range of workspaces, to suit any occasion. That’s a double boost for your inspiration and productivity. Whether you prefer ergonomic desks, comfy couches in the lounge, or you need a meeting room with a whiteboard for some brainstorming, or even an inspiring event space for client meetings, you’ve got it all. Plus, in many of our coworking spaces, you can work outdoors. A nice experience (especially when the weather’s on your side).

A network that inspires

Another perk is the fantastic network you become a part of when you join us. Maybe you’re on the hunt for new clients or new team members and collaborators? It’s super easy when you share spaces with other forward-thinking folks and businesses. Often, new business opportunities and collaborations sprout from our network events or random chats at the coffee machine.

Focus on work – we’ve got the rest

At United Spaces, all the office services are included (a huge plus, if you ask us). We’ll take care of everything: from setting up a nice breakfast buffets to after-work gatherings, and all the little details that need to be in place. Ink in the printer, coffee in the brewer, and fresh towels in the shower. So, you can laser-focus on your work.

But, alright, let’s get real. These are the downsides:

One could be sharing space with strangers. If you love to work completely alone, sharing your office with people you don’t know (yet) might not be your jam. Another could be that you’ll have a little less control over details. For example, what the theme of this month’s inspiration event will be (but hey, we’re all ears if you have suggestions). Or how the space looks (you can deck out your private office exactly how you like it).

So, there you have it! All in all, coworking is pretty awesome. (Okay, we might be a tad biased, but hey, remember that you asked us!)

Our whole deal is built around you. We know that if you thrive, your company will do the same. That’s why we offer more than just our fantastic workspaces.

We set you up with cool events, lunchtime workouts, and a seriously awesome breakfast spread. And, hey, maybe even some surprises(!) to keep your team’s vibes on the up and up. Our main aim? To get you pumped about heading into the office.

Of course, you can snag your own office, but the lounge and after-work spots are open for everyone. Why? Well, just think about it – on a regular Tuesday, you might bump into your next big client right in your workplace. Pretty smart, huh? We’re also more than happy to actively connect you with other members. Your future customers or hires may already be hanging out in our network.

But this is the thing: We create a space where you can actually get work done. Because, let’s face it, you need time to focus on your business. That’s why we’ll handle the rest.

We’re talking top-notch coffee, fancy shampoo that foams like a dream, setting up breakfast buffets, after-work gatherings, and celebrating special occasions. We make sure the Wi-Fi, printer, and fresh towels are all in check. We’re here to welcome you at the front desk, handle your mail, and make sure you’re always well-caffeinated.

The best part? You don’t have to worry about a single thing.

So, what’s holding you back? Come hang with us and see your business grow.

As a member, you can work at any of our 10 coworking locations throughout Sweden.

No matter where you chose to work, we promise you an inspiring work environment, available 7 days a week (and almost any hour you can think of).

There are three types of memberships:

The idea is that you and your company can customize your office solution according to your specific needs and simply adjust it whenever necessary.

This is super convenient when employees work partly remote, but still want to get some inspiration from meeting other people in the office on specific days.

All our memberships are designed to simplify your office life and make it genuinely enjoyable. We’re all about the small details that enhance your workday – think freshly brewed coffee, invigorating lunchtime workouts, clean towels for a post-exercise shower, a perfectly tuned printer, and a warm front desk team to greet you and your guests daily.

And to sweeten the deal, we have a delightful daily treat for you:
Monday: Fresh fruit to complement your afternoon coffee.

Thursday/Friday: Wrap up the week with our appreciated after-work gatherings.
