Abstract

Co-working space combines open and enclosed spaces in which various activities of residents are carried out. Open and enclosed co-workings influence the formation of the environment and conditions for a certain activity (each activity has its own space). Today, the ratio between open and enclosed spaces is relevant in terms of spatial solutions (open and enclosed spaces) and affect the efficiency of the economic activity of people. Based on the analysis of open and enclosed co-working spaces, their functional purpose, operation and spatial planning solutions, this paper studies the interaction and intersection of spatial structures of open and enclosed spaces. The study includes planning components of various co-working spaces: integrity, mutual arrangement, functional connections, dominance. The analysis of these components is the basis of systematization of possible connections between open and enclosed spaces. Functional-spatial structures of open and enclosed co-workings are presented together with transitional stages between them.

Purpose: The aim of the work is to systematize the types of connections of open and closed spaces with each other.

Research findings: Functional-spatial structures are proposed for co-working spaces from open to closed type with transitional stages between them.
