CLIP OF THE DAY: Trend hunting





"It is not a coffee shop it is not an office, but if you are a mobile worker it is something much better than both things together". That is the approach at Urban Station in Bueno’s Aires hip Palermo Soho disctric. Think desks, Wi-Fi, scanners, lockers, conference rooms that feel like a trendy work space and the comfort of your favourite coffee shop combined. How do they make money? (aside from food and drinks) by renting desks. There has been a real and significant growing market for this sort of business, specially if you consider that around 26 million people work at least some of the time outside a proper office space (not to mention freelancers and part-timers). So today, I thought I would CLIP about this to you, as on a similar note, I have recently been invited to the opening of London’s first members only office/private boutique club for the creative industry called Apartment 58 in Soho. Soon to open in Notting Hill and Shoreditch areas, and later on in Paris, Berlin, Milan, New York and Mumbai, the place is indeed really cool and worth checking, if you can. If not, think CONNECT & watch out…..I. xx
