Small office space for rent

Purveyors of co-working and shared office space have a theory: traditional office real estate is dead. Flexible leasing arrangements, chic interior design and in-office hospitality services killed it. It might just take a while for the fluorescently-lit cubicle farm to die. “What is making non-traditional office (space) successful is it simply works,” said Jason Winkler, co-founder of local shared office giant Industry Denver. “It’s value-generating.
