Pod Works: Shedworking in the street



My book Improbable Libraries features telephone boxes successfully turned into titchy libraries, so the Shedworking staff were especially delighted to see that they are also now to become urban garden offices, aimed at "entrepreneurs who are looking for affordable convenient work space in attractive locations who are constantly on the move or for those who need a convenient place to work before a meeting or an interview".

Pod Works - from New York-based co-working company Bar Works - will be refurbished boxes in a couple of dozen locations in the UK, including London, Edinburgh, Leeds, Norwich, and Plymouth, though the plan is to extend into many others nationwide. Each will be tiny shedworking stations and have plug sockets, wifi, printer, scanner, 25 inch screen, VOIP phone with free national calls, and gratis tea and coffee. All this for £19.99 a month. --------------------------------------------------------
