Inside Colombo’s new coworking space WORX

The world’s largest home office experiment is underway, and it’s working. This forced digital transformation has fostered trust — or at least confidence — in the idea of a remote workforce.

While distancing may be part of the new normal, collaboration and connection remain more important than ever and WORX is leading the way. Architecturally pleasing, stylishly appointed and fully functional, WORX is where much of Colombo is getting their work done. “WORX is not just a coworking space, but a community and space where entrepreneurs and creative thinkers can collaborate, innovate and thrive. With beautiful, fully furnished workspaces, we like to focus on the little things, so our members can accomplish great things,” says Co-Founder of WORX, Azahn Munas.

The focus of this coworking startup is to change the way people feel about coming to work. It aims to offer a space where its members can not only accomplish a hard day’s work but also spend quality recreational time to replenish and relax. Azahn describes the community they’ve built at WORX as, “A diverse and eclectic mix of people. Ranging from tech startups and digital nomad’s to photographers, graphic designers and other creative professionals. Everyone is welcome and we pride ourselves on creating a safe space where people can connect, innovate and thrive.” Within the walls of WORX, there are several spaces to get work done, this includes open seats, communal spaces to start work, dedicated private offices or dedicated desks.

WORX also manages all other facilities such as cleaning, managing utilities, reception and guest management, handling company mail, and other background tasks. There’s also an on-site cafe and restaurant. Furthermore, with a focus on premium design and hospitality, this coworking space also has a few unique additions including a rooftop terrace, swimming pools, a zen garden, several outdoor cabanas, and a working art gallery.

Sharing his views on these challenging times, Azahn said, “While distancing may be part of our new normal, collaboration and connection remain more important than ever—and having a safe place to do that is essential. We want our members to know that they can make WORX a part of their daily life and still feel comfortable being with friends and family outside of work. That’s why we’re enhancing our spaces and services to protect the wellbeing of our community-ensuring that members can continue working in a safe, healthy work environment.”
