dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: The rise of remote work has intensified the need for suitable workspaces, especially for those who cannot afford or lack the dedicated space for a home office. This research aims to explore the emerging concept of coworking cafés as a feasible solution for remote workers seeking both affordability and a conducive work environment. Coworking cafés offer a blend of the relaxed atmosphere of a café and the functional necessities of an office, thereby catering to two distinct target groups with different needs. The study investigates the history of café houses and draws parallels to modern coworking cafés, exploring how they can meet the diverse needs of today's remote workers and café-goers. The goal is to identify the elements that contribute to a successful coworking café by balancing the requirements for privacy, acoustics, and social interaction for both target groups. Keywords: Remote Work, Coworking Cafés, Workspace, Affordability, Café Culture, Acoustics, Privacy, Social Interaction, History of Cafés, Target Groupsen
