Following successful launches in Chicago and London, Working From_, the visionary coworking concept developed by British hotel brand, The Hoxton, has arrived in Brussels – with interiors crafted by AIME Studios. Nestled in the vibrant Botanique district of the city, the coworking space is situated within four expansive floors within the iconic former IBM tower – now named Victoria Tower – and offers 580 workstations to cater to the diverse needs of its members.

Natural light flows throughout, streaming through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and onto a selection of premium furniture that marries ergonomic design with pleasing aesthetics. The interior reimagines classic 1970s design, embracing brutalist silhouettes and striking patterns that complement polished plaster walls and bold geometric accents. Statement chandeliers designed by AIME hang overhead, lending further elegance.

“Working From_ aspires to provide a stimulating and inclusive environment where professionals can connect, learn from one another, and elevate their work,” says Charles Van den Bogaert, managing director of Working From_ Brussels. The coworking space is well equipped with all the modern amenities required plus extra details, including charging ports at every workstation and ambient background music.

For those in need of inspiration, users of Working From_ Brussels will find a library on each of the floor floors, offering a retreat away from the desk and a calm moment of solitude. Elsewhere, lounges invite informal discussions, featuring plush armchairs and ‘tucked away’ corners for privacy. Workers can also opt to use one of the 22 soundproof phonebooths available, as well as meeting rooms and a members-only café on the first floor featuring low tables and lounge chairs.

Since its inaugural hotel in Shoreditch, London in 2006, The Hoxton’s lobbies have evolved into informal workspaces for local creative minds. Building upon this experience, The Hoxton conceived the concept of “Working From_.” The latest opening in Brussels offers a comfortable work environment that meets an array of office layouts and typologies ranging from open-plan areas to meeting rooms, alongside coworking spaces and concentration-friendly zones.
