1. Industry data show that global desk occupancy for flexible workspaces is holding at around 72.5% and revenue per occupied desk now exceeds US $500.
2. For flex operators and co-working businesses, this means the market is already showing strong demand and the competitive advantage lies with those who can move quickly and differentiate.
3. With the AI-powered floor planning platform laiout, you can prototype layout scenarios, optimise utilisation, generate compelling shareables in minutes and convert demand into value at pace.
Demand in the flexible workspace sector is stabilising at a meaningful level; the latest reports show that desk occupancy is around 72.5% globally, and operators are lifting revenue per desk through smarter pricing and design. For operators, this presents clear implications:
• A strong foundation of actual demand means waiting longer to adapt your spaces may cost you market position.
• Differentiation becomes critical when many spaces are active; operators who act fast with better layouts, higher yield memberships or flexible models will capture more.
• Efficiency and speed now trump raw expansion. Optimising what you already have, layouts, amenity mix, utilisation and marketing is the next frontier.
Scenario modelling & rapid iteration: Upload your floor-plate into laiout and generate multiple layout variants in seconds. Test density versus amenity rich models to find what creates value fastest.
Accelerate marketing & leasing: Generate listing-ready visuals, floor plans and shareable assets quickly so you engage brokers, tenants and partners faster.
Provide live availability: Apply custom colours or zones for highlighting leased or available units, share live links that auto-update on listings or dashboards, and maintain an always-accurate overview of spaces.
Q1: My space already has decent occupancy, is layout optimisation still worth doing?
With demand present, enhancing layout and marketing allows you to capture more value from your existing asset rather than just adding volume.
Q2: Isn’t layout optimisation expensive and disruptive?
The real value is in modelling alternatives and selecting the right path. With laiout you simulate changes before committed investment.
Q3: What return should I expect from this approach?
Results will vary by location and asset, but you should expect stronger revenue per desk, improved conversion of memberships or bookings, higher utilisation and a clearer competitive narrative.
If you are ready to generate layout options quickly, produce high-impact shareables and engage the market with confidence, then book a demo today and position your business to take advantage of the demand.
