Active and Productive: Dynamic Coworking Hubs
In September 2025, Industrious, a renowned coworking space provider, will open its second Berlin location at the retrofitted heritage building, Schicklerhaus. This former Marxist workers' school will transform into a smart, energy-efficient hub, embodying the history of Berlin while catering to the needs of today's professionals.
Industrious' approach in Berlin is a harmonious blend of global consistency and a deeply local mindset. The coworking space at BEAM, Industrious in Berlin, spans approximately 3,000 sqm and will offer amenities such as libraries, bars, and rooftop terraces, all designed like a city square, not an office block.
The choice of Schicklerhaus was made to create environments where people feel good working, not chasing industrial cliches. Over 65% of the space is dedicated to '30-second workspaces', which include areas for focus, connection, and inspiration. The workspaces will also feature office plants, but their use will be thoughtful and purposeful, not just for decoration.
Industrious aims to create workplaces where employees enjoy coming to work. Three things that make Industrious industrious are: a focus on members' happiness, a serious approach to work, and management of workspace experiences at scale. This is symbolised by the bee logo of Industrious, which represents purposeful work and the idea of working hard with meaning.
In addition to the usual coworking facilities, Industrious at BEAM Berlin will offer smart operational real estate solutions and Friday afternoon drinks. The space will also host a variety of events, including sake tastings, startup bootcamps, charity pop-ups, and lunch & learns. These events are co-created with their members and are designed to spark curiosity and connection.
Berlin is described as having a unique combination of creative chaos and quiet conviction. This vibrant city provides the perfect backdrop for Industrious' coworking spaces, which foster connections between startups and established businesses. Industrious often participates in local events and initiatives, creating a sense of community and connection to the local culture.
Industrious' approach in Berlin is set to create a vibrant and inclusive coworking environment that caters to both the global and local business communities. With its focus on community engagement, adaptive design, and a commitment to creating spaces that are both globally consistent in quality and amenities while incorporating local elements, Industrious is poised to make a significant impact on Berlin's coworking scene.
