As a remote worker I really want this to happen. As a parent of two tiny humans it’s hard to even fathom where the time goes most days.

After my new remote job settles down in a few months, attempting to start a low key coworking group in my small but quickly growing community is going to be my new project.

But if you are liberated from an office environment, why try to create a new office environment all over again? Why not seek out special-interest groups or volunteering/philantrophic organizations to provide social interaction?

It’s not a bad point. I personally need some separation between my home and work environments and I’ve found working completely on my own to be somewhat isolating. Right now I have a small portion of a guest bedroom dedicated to office and it’s not great. In my ideal world I would have a small space shared with a few people within a short walk from home.

I'm guessing strangers in a co-working space would feel less entitled to walk up and interrupt you throughout the day. That's largely my issue with the open office where I work.
