I worked from a luxury co-working space in Brooklyn where a desk costs half my rent. Companies struggling to lure employees back to the office should take notes.

For the first half of the day, I camped out in a super comfortable booth with marble countertops. Access to open seating like this costs $50 a day or $395 a month.Small groups worked at tables scattered throughout the space. If conversation became too loud, office staff politely requested folks to quiet down.For meetings, there were around half a dozen standing desks and phone booths. If you need to take a call in the common area, you're encouraged to wear earphones.

I rotated between the couch and chairs from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m.From the wall art and plants to views of the Brooklyn skyline, it was the perfect spot to go heads down on a creative project, or catch up on some reading.Meanwhile, three or four people worked silently at a large table on the other side of the room.The Malin's reasoning behind their luxurious design is that "beautiful spaces make it easy to work hard." Based on my productivity for the day, I'd have to agree.
