The name is meant ironically and plays with the cliché of Business-Lifestyle, has Founders Manu Kumar, who is realizing a completely new form of cooperation here.
In fact, in the Kreuzberg BCNOffice on the Paul-Lincke-Ufer few open-plan offices in the classic Style: The large room is divided with columns. Large-format works of art by the artist Kumar hang on the walls, white desks with roll containers and stylish desk lamps are more reminiscent of a design studio than one Workplace . remember
The loft has a spacious open kitchen, a sofa corner and a courtyard. And unlike the Betahaus, everyone here has their own phone. Only the chairs look quite uncomfortable. And whoever thinks he can look at the canal while working is looking deceiving: the BCN headquarters is located in a backyard.
All in all, I like that Concept very good - above all, the atmosphere is calm and pleasant, but still creative and communicative. Kumar, who sees himself as a pioneer of the co-working idea in Germany, was on the Idea came because he could not keep his loft, which he used as a studio, alone. There are now 10 workstations with telephones, Internet, printer, desk lamp and lockable shelf.
If you want to rent a workplace, you pay 200-250 euros, access is available around the clock with a chip card. In contrast to the Betahaus, however, not everyone can rent here: Long-term tenants in particular are wanted “then you can also look at the price negotiate".
And even if Kumar doesn't want to say it so directly, he apparently applies certain selection criteria: That's how all tenants are here in their job successfully, so that all other users can also benefit from the networking effects.
And these networking effects extend far beyond the office. Not only that in the backyard but also craftsmen, dancers and other artists have their premises, so that you can scoop if necessary:
What is special about the BCN concept: there are 7 BCN locations in exotic locations around the world Welt (India, Nepal, USA, Manjove Desert); the tenants are international and particularly active in the art scene. And so travel and work can be actively interlinked.

BCN Graz:
Unfortunately, the concept of the office to create a pleasant, stylish atmosphere has not been transferred to the website: that makes her name all honor and somehow reminds me of an airline.
Probably belongs to the ironic game with the name and should emphasize the travel aspect in the concept, but it seems a little uncomfortable to me. A couple of nice photos from the office, like I have here for the Article once borrowed, would have me Online more confident. Unfortunately, you have to look for them first.

Hi Bastian,
Have you ever been there? You can also simply in the operator inquire.
At BCN it was more people from the creative scene, for example people who programmed and designed websites. No painters. I think the BCN makes the most sense from the networking effect, because according to the operator, the tenants are professionally successful in their jobs and are probably selected accordingly. That means, not everyone comes in - which is a disadvantage, depending on how you see it.
In the Betahaus, for example - there were mainly people from the IT scene, but also online marketers, for example. And since the beta house is bigger, there are more people and a greater mix.
In principle, however, I find it useful to work with people from other sectors as well. So, as a journalist, I'm glad when I know web specialists. Or we were given the example of a Modedesgnerin from New York, who worked in the BCN and there also immediately found a seamstress.
In general, however, there is always a high fluctuation in these offers. If you are very committed to working with certain people, you may need to set up your own office or co-working space.

The concept of BCN is a good thing. The jobs are generous and the premises bright. However, I find the rental rates quite high. But the networking effects are likely to be worthwhile for people from the art scene. But how is it with other tenants, one finds there only people from the area of art?
