Power plays

By Victoria Lewis | 21st November 2025

Say goodbye to bleak offices and fluorescent lighting – the way we work has evolved. Enter coworking spaces: the buzzword you’ve heard everywhere, and for good reason. These next-gen hubs are popping up across the globe, redefining what a workplace can be. Think creative, communal, energising, and built for people who want more from their 9-to-5 than a desk and a deadline.

For creatives, entrepreneurs, and freelancers, coworking isn’t just convenient – it might be the smartest business move you make all year. And Brisbane’s newest innovation space, The Forefront, is proving exactly why. After all, great things happen when great minds share a space.

So, without further ado, here’s why coworking spaces should be your next power play.

The Forefront

1. Socialisation

As much as we love a good WFH day, too much time left to our own devices can get at best unproductive and at worst downright depressing. Operating within a coworking space, filled with like-minded people from all walks of life and all corners of business, is a sure-fire way to expand your horizons, make new connections, and have someone to eat your packed lunch with.

Take The Forefront, for instance, Hamilton’s newest coworking space – not only do their communal working options lend themselves to some workday socialising, they also have free commercial coffee (nothing like a caffeine-fuelled chat), and host regular out-of-hours events.

From inspiring keynote speeches (most recently from Quan Payne on creating without limits) to Saturday morning Pilates by The River, there is no better way to make some new, and real face-to-face connections in this digital age or parasocial relationships. The home to Creative Mornings Brisbane, a Creative Lunch Club, and The Design Kids initiative, there is no excuse not to get those creative juices flowing.

Networking benefits, friendly faces and fun out-of-hours events? Sign me up.

2. Productive atmosphere

It’s no secret that we all work better when the mood is just right, and there’s nothing quite like a cramped office to hinder your progress at work. So, at The Forefront, they have made a space that’s innovative, design-driven, and vibrant in atmosphere – the perfect setting to lock in for hours and really get stuff done. And did we mention riverside city views? Perched in a prime Hamilton hotspot, right next to Eat Street Northshore, The Forefront is keeping your commute short and your work life simple.

Plus, with all-inclusive services and the option to have your lunch delivered to your desk daily from their tuckshop, they worry about the upkeep, and you focus on your business.

So, whether you’re after your next creative boost or just some added motivation or accountability, this is your sign to level up your work game with The Forefront.

3. Flexibility

Nobody understands your business quite like you do, so no matter your unique needs, you’ll find a home within a coworking space. At The Forefront Hamilton, you’ll find they make use of every nook and cranny, from private offices and meeting rooms to shared coworking desks and professional facilities – there is something for every kind of business.

Their flexible membership options span from day passes to 24/7 dedicated desk packages. Basically, their fully fit-out coworking facility can be used to suit any kind of professional, from corporate to creative, on a month-to-month lease plan or a one-off payment.

Not the mention the option to use their vast add-on facilities, including warehouse space, a packing station and even podcast equipment. Get me on the mic!

4. Cost-saving perks

Coworking spaces are almost always more cost-effective than a traditional office lease. Due to the scalability of coworking spaces like The Forefront, you don’t pay for space you don’t need, and you can tailor your package to actually suit your needs. Don’t need a permanent office?  Save on a full-time lease with a flex-desk package.

And in terms of perks, there are plenty. Make the most of being a part of The Forefront community: enjoy free parking, free coffee, and major savings on amenities and wifi – and the list goes on.

Is coworking just the thing you and your business need to take things to the next level? Turn those dreams into a reality, my friend, and enquire with The Forefront’s team today. PS. Style readers can unlock a free 5-day pass with this link. Talk about savings!
