In 2017, across the UK 1.6 million people regularly worked remotely or from home. The rising number of people working from home in London has influenced property developers to include a co-working space or office area in residential developments. The amenities typically included in a residential space included a gym, coffee shop, lounge area, recreation room or even cinema, the idea of the co-working space in a residential building is becoming more common.
