Coworking spaces such as at bell_works in HoffmanEstates & 25NCoworking providing a popular, welcome growth trend in the suburban office market

A distinct growth sector of the suburban office market, coworking has become a bastion of those downsizing from corporate space, fleeing the congestion of the city, or escaping the domestic distractions of working from home.

His first area allowed most of his employees to come in nearly every day. Now he's the only one who does, but his staff is able to use coLab's flex space and other office amenities on the days they gather. Bagasra moved his firm to coLab in October. It's not only near his new home but provides a welcome change from his previous commute to the city.Amenities also were part of the appeal. When other staff members come in, he has the option of meeting in a conference room outside his office. And the Fit Lab gym downstairs is a complete rehab of the fitness space AT&T previously had when the sprawling building was its corporate headquarters.

Previously, the concept had been based on a desire in the market for flexibility and a better work-life balance. But the pandemic really hit the gas pedal for coworking. Even nearby companies with their own buildings use Gather's conference rooms and amenities, coLab Community Manager Jake Kling said.Coworking doesn't require a building the size of Bell Works.

Hauser, whose sister firm Workplace Studio also designs coworking spaces for others, said there are five elements that define coworking: flexible desks, meeting rooms, a sense of community, a community manager, and a source for economic development.
