The 8 Best Co-Working Spaces in Barcelona

Change is inevitable and constant. And if we’re talking about change in the way we work today, the most timely and befitting example would be that of co-working spaces. When co-working was first introduced in 2005, it was considered to be just a trend or a movement, something that would eventually fade or go away. (source)

Fast forward to 2019 and co-working is already a full-blown industry that’s continually rising. In 2018 alone, 2,188 new co-working spaces were opened worldwide. And because this means that people can now freely work anywhere they want, certain places are more popular for co-working than others. Barcelona, with its relaxing atmosphere and days of endless sunshine, remains one of Europe’s top visited cities. There are currently around 100 co-working spaces in Barcelona, and we have picked out the best.

Located in the heart of Poble Sec, a district known for its shady squares, Boho vibe and elegant 19th-century architecture, La Vaca is one of Barcelona’s most laid-back co-working spaces. ‘La Vaca’ literally translates to ‘the cow’, and this place is a former dairy shop where people used to go for fresh milk. Currently, it is where working people of Barcelona go for fresh ideas.

La Vaca has a very communal energy that gives off an amazing vibe conducive to productivity and creating fresh ideas. La Vaca focuses on a strong community-based atmosphere that allows one to have an enjoyable place to work and at the same time be able to network with other freelancers, entrepreneurs, and digital nomads from all over the world. “Creative chaos” is the vibe that a working guest will get from La Vaca. They also foster interaction amongst workers and co-workers (they have weekly events like ‘Paella Day’, for instance).

La Vaca is recommended for creative workers and those who like to mix up the solitude of being a freelancer or a digital nomad with being social.

Their locations and interiors are designed to inspire. Their Marina Port Vell location is inside the exclusive One Ocean Port Vell Compound and is likely to be the only co-working space in Barcelona that is situated over the water. This OneCoWork location is also just a couple of minutes’ walk to and from the beach so you can count beach breaks as one of the things you can do in-between your workload at OneCoWork Marina Port Vell.

Their second location, at Placa Catalunya, is right in the city centre, has a vibrant atmosphere and is very easily accessed via public transport. Their highly-anticipated third co-working location in Catedral is also ideally located directly beside the famed ‘Catedral de Barcelona’. It has a prime location on Via Laietana and private parking exclusive for their members.

The interiors of OneCoWork spaces were also designed to maximise productivity with the combined use of art and science. For instance, they discovered that people are most productive when surrounded by natural light and when ceilings are at least 10 feet tall. So when they designed and constructed OneCoWork Marina Port Vell, they made sure that it was surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows. And those who do their work at OneCoWork Placa Catalunya will find themselves surrounded by natural light because their in-house design team removed large sections of the ground, first and second floors so that natural light fills the entire building, reaching even the basement.
