This Hospitality-Inspired Co-Working Space Seamlessly Melds Work And Play

Opening its second location in the heart of the Singapore’s CBD at Centennial Tower, the The Great Room's recent expansion is a stark reflection of the burgeoning demand for unique co-working spaces. The sprawling new office space spans a massive 36, 000 square feet spread over two levels, offering enterprising professionals a panoramic view of downtown Singapore as they collaborate, network and share ideas amongst one another. Not only does this magnificent workspace offer a refreshing alternative to the traditional stuffy cubicle offices but the elegantly designed interior and its hospitality-driven focus also elevates the current co-working scene to new heights of sophistication.

Co-Founder and CEO of the Great Room, Jaelle Ang shares, “We wanted to create an all-encompassing work and play experience that welcomes co-working members and business club members to share the hospitality experience that defines The Great Room. This opening further cements our purpose to change the way people feel about going to work. Because beyond productivity, work is also about new conversations, connections, inspiration, contemplation and repose. It's our job to design the perfect backdrop to the highlights of life happening.”

Just launched in February 2018, this new space is one of the key milestones of the Great Room's overall growth strategy to nurture a high value community and extensive network across Asia. By end of 2018, The Great Room aims to serve a growing community of over 700 companies in technology, finance, lifestyle and media, across its seven locations in four cities, namely Bangkok, Hong Kong, Jakarta and Singapore.

Upon entering the space, The Drawing Room beckons you in with its warm and classy interior, doubling as a reception area housing the Bar and Café as well as an ideal event space for members to gather for evening tipples and large-scale fireside chats. From there on, a wide array of different working stations and meeting rooms of various sizes and function await to suit each company or individual's needs and preferences. Hot Desks and Hot Offices are also available to increase the flexibility of options available should members choose to work alone or together.

With numerous opportunities for serendipitous meetings and networking among a growing likeminded community of professionals from a diverse range of industries, this is the ultimate conducive spot for ideas and innovation to thrive.
