rooms & workspaces where accommodates and co-workers can easily interact with each
others. More informal spaces/facilities such as coffee corners, lounge space, swimming
pool, indoor table games etc. can be provided allow accommodates to expand their
network and minds.

CHAPTER I

1.1. Introduction:

This thesis project fundamentally questions the image of workspace & living space in the
near future. With the emerging new trend of a more independent workforce, plus the global
trends of horizontal organizational structures & urban office buildings integrated with
informal spaces, the future workspace will focus highly on informal interactions which lead
to the mutual economic benefits of knowledge sharing, team building and job satisfaction.

obtain resources,
determine their boundary
& how to find their way.
1.2. Need for study:

 What is Co-working & Co-living ?

Co-working space is the space in which several workers from different companies
share an office space, allowing cost savings and convenience through the use of
common infrastructures, such as equipment, utilities, receptionist and custodial
services. Similarly, Co-living is a kind of community housing arrangement, where
like-minded people stay together and share their accommodations.
Because of interests from the Gen-Z &millennial i.e. the younger generation
in the age group of 18-30 year and living more independently in India so,
there is room for the co-living/working space companies to get flourish.

 Why you should consider going for a Co-living/working Space ?

1. Ease of living:

If there ever was the ease of living ranking


among real estate offerings, co-
living/working would, undoubtedly, top the
list. Especially for urban millennial, who
move jobs (and homes) every 20 months or
so.

The whole process of relocating to a new place becomes easier than opening a bank
account, when furnishings, kitchen utilities, and maintenance services are taken care of.

2. Budget or Cost of Living:

Most young professionals simply cannot afford


to buy a house in the city. So, renting becomes
the only option. If you choose to live in a
co-living space, the utilities are no longer your
responsibility.
Don’t worry about paying the electricity bill or
going over your monthly internet gigs. It’s all
taken care of.

3. Sense of community

Millennial are often perceived as lone


rangers in pursuit of their own paths. As
free as birds, they explore new horizons,
evidently in no hurry ‘to settle down’.
However, the journey can often get lonely.
Studies suggest that more than 40 percent of
millennial suffer from chronic loneliness.
“Imagine you’re a graphic designer and there’s a coder in one room, an investment
banker in the second and your roommate is a videographer.
The possibilities of what you could create at the comfort of your workspace within your
living space are endless”. The ironic part is people are oblivious to the existence of this
new way of living.
4. Free Of Landlords

Co-living/working opens up when it comes to


meeting new people, said that diversity is
what makes co-living/working an exciting
experience and their residents don’t want to
leave once they experience the perks of living
away from snooty landlords.

5. Privacy when you need it

Even the most outgoing people sometimes need a


little time alone, and with co-living/working
spaces, you can certainly have the best of both. So,
even though co-living/working fosters a sense of
community and of being around others and
collaborating with them, you can still enjoy some
much-needed quiet time.

6. Safety

Residential safety is more than just having a


security guard. It’s about a sense of wellbeing that
space exudes. When you opt for a co-living space,
you can be sure about 24-hour security, CCTV
surveillance, access card entry, background
verification, and screening process of the staff as
as residents. This niche realty segment is a lot more organized and transparent than PG
accommodations and renting options, making it a safer choice for millennial in a new city.

7. Lifestyle choices

The concept of community living is not actually


new. What’s new is that, unlike in the past,
millennial are drawn together by lifestyle choices
and not so much by religious affiliations or other
considerations. Youngsters prefer residential
spaces that are more flexible and social. Home is
where the fun is!
1.3. Intent:

The intent of selecting this project is also to work on the regional and micro level
simultaneously. In regional level emphasis will be been given to the existing zoning, land
use, connections with the surrounding commercial area.

The high prices of real estate and an increasingly solitary lifestyle are leading people to
seek new ways of living. Despite the similarities with a student house, co-living/working
combines many other aspects, such as a sense of community, sustainability, and
collaborative economy.

Digital nomads and global citizens also adapt well to shared environments. Many of these
co-living/working developments have units throughout the world's major capital cities, so
they can choose one as a base location and move around as needed, rather than keep
hopping from one Airbnb to another.

1.4. Conclusion:

Co-living/working is a new trend that has hit the Indian metropolitan cities. When you
move halfway across the country, to places with no solid support system — friends or
family — you no longer have to worry about buying yourself a refrigerator or setting up an
internet connection or even being lonely. Co-living/working will be there to take care of all
your homely needs.

In India, the co-living/working concept is gaining widespread acceptance and has brought
to the front some new models in the private rental sector.

Though the concept is novel, it’s here to stay, as India’s millennial population currently
accounts for 440 million.

The growing interest for co-living/working spaces in cities such as Bengaluru, Mumbai,
Delhi NCR, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, and other tiers II and tier III cities like
Ahmadabad, Kota, Cochin, Jaipur, Kanpur, Dehradun & Nagpur this is a big opportunity for
the real estate investment community.
