werkhain: Award-Winning Co-Working Space in Friedrichshain

In just eight weeks, the team transformed a former gym into one of Berlin’s most creative co-working spaces. The result also impressed experts: werkhain won three awards at the German Coworking Award 2025, officially making it the best co-working space in Berlin. The space took first place in the „Best Newcomer Space” category, along with two third places for „Best Community Management” and „Best Coworking Space of the Year”.

Inspired by the Berlin club scene, contrasts were deliberately created: graffiti zones, art installations, disco toilets, and changing exhibitions shape the spatial concept. Functionality does not suffer at all. Height-adjustable desks, ergonomic chairs, and large monitors show that ergonomic fundamentals are taken seriously. Additionally, phone booths allow for focused calls, while dedicated quiet zones permit deep work alongside the more open areas.

Community, Flexibility, and Everything Co-Working Needs in Berlin Today

Across 1,400 m² and five floors, coworking, event spaces, and community formats unite to form a vibrant ecosystem. Flexible tariffs range from day passes to flexible and fixed co-working desks, and private offices. A Flex Desk starts at 210 Euros per month, a Fix Desk at 630 Euros per month, and 24/7 access is available.

The community is clearly at the heart of it all: the team knows its members, curates the mix, and fosters genuine connections through community lunches, AfterWerk formats, and spontaneous events. Additionally, regular concerts and exhibitions bring Berlin’s cultural life directly into the workday. The outdoor area is considered an absolute highlight, especially in the warmer months. So, if you’re looking for a co-working space in Berlin that is so much more than a desk for rent, you should at least treat yourself to a trial day at werkhain in Friedrichshain.
