Coliving & Remote Work Glossary

What is a Shared Workspace?

A shared workspace is a communal area where multiple people work — usually freelancers, remote employees, creatives, or small teams. It can be part of a coworking space, a coliving home, or even a café, and it's designed to support productivity, collaboration, and a flexible working style.

Think desks, WiFi, outlets, and a quiet buzz of focused energy.

Why Does a Shared Workspace Matter for Digital Nomads or Remote Workers?

Working remotely doesn't mean working alone — and shared workspaces provide structure, social interaction, and a clear boundary between “work” and “life.” For digital nomads especially, it’s a way to stay productive while also meeting people, sharing ideas, or just having someone nearby to grab a coffee with.

Plus, it helps reduce isolation, which is a real challenge in the remote lifestyle.

How Does Nomadico Relate to Shared Workspaces?

All of our Nomadico homes include a shared workspace — a dedicated area where guests can work comfortably alongside others. It's usually set up with desks or long tables, ergonomic chairs, strong WiFi, and natural light — and it’s always a space that respects both focus and flexibility.

It's not about being silent or formal — it's about creating an environment that supports remote work while still feeling relaxed and community-driven.

Common Misconceptions About Shared Workspaces

“They’re noisy or distracting.”

A good shared workspace balances quiet productivity with occasional friendly conversation. It’s all about the vibe and shared respect.


“You can’t focus in a shared space.”

Many remote workers thrive in a low-key, social environment — especially with the right setup.


“They’re only for coworking spaces.”

Not true — many coliving homes, including Nomadico, offer shared workspaces designed specifically for remote professionals.
