What you can do for this space
Coworking spaces · Phone booths
Plan the booths around the calls they need to serve.
Set member attendance, call frequency and call length, then compare booth counts and calls left without a booth after waiting. Add a bank of booths on a copy of the floor and check its aisles and doors.
- Add phone booths on a copy
- Check the floor with the extra booths
- Compare calls without a booth and the busiest day

Coworking spaces · Hot desks and meeting rooms
Compare who gets a desk or a room on a busy day.
Keep the hot desks fixed and vary membership counts and visit lengths, counting visits without a desk and the worst day. In a separate comparison, keep the meeting-room calendar fixed and change the check-in deadline, weighing walk-ins served against booked groups losing their room.
- Compare memberships and half-day visits
- Count visits without a desk and the worst day
- Compare room release rules and late-arrival losses

Results from worked examples
- With 50% visiting daily and half of visits lasting half a day, 40 hot desks serve 100 members (2.5 per desk) with 3.3% of visits without a desk.
- In this scenario, releasing after 15 minutes serves an average of 3.7 walk-ins a day instead of 0.5, at the cost of 0.4 booked groups a day losing their room.

How many phone booths does a coworking space need?
For this coworking space (100 members of the open desks, about half of them in on a day), simulate a working day of booth calls: two calls a member a day of 5 to 45 minutes. How many one-person phone booths keep the calls that find no booth within 3 minutes under 5%? Add booths on a copy where they fit, and check the floor.

How many members can share 40 coworking hot desks?
On this coworking floor, keep 40 hot desks and exclude the 8 dedicated desks. Test 60 to 160 flexible members in steps of 5, with 50% visiting each day. Compare 25%, 50% and 75% half-day visits, using the arrival and stay assumptions above. Run 20 days per case. Count visits that find no desk and go to the lounge, peak desks in use, the worst day and days with any desk turn-away. Which tested membership count keeps fewer than 5% of visits without a desk?
