After nearly a decade of pioneering Luxembourg’s coworking scene, Gosia Kramer, founder of The Office, is once again redefining what flexible work means in one of Europe’s most competitive business hubs, rolling out a new operational model.
Gosia launched her flexible office solution The Office after a decade spent in the corporate sector left her hungry for a creative outlet. Focused on a separate project, when she struggled to find freelancers to support her new mission, she pivoted into sustainable and flexible office space management. In 2016, she signed a lease on Boulevard Grande-Duchesse Charlotte, filling it with beautiful upcycled industrial furniture and décor. From there, she grew The Office into three distinct spaces, each catering to a different stage of a company’s evolution:
- Charlotte, a launchpad for freelancers and creators located in a former garage.
- City, an accelerator-style hub for young startups inside the former national library archives.
- Suits, an agile, fully-equipped solution for growing companies scaling their teams.
But COVID changed everything. “We never really bounced back,” Gosia admits. Adding to that challenge, the City building became unmanageable due to long-standing facility and safety issues.
In a bold but strategic decision, Gosia closed The Office City.
A New Model for a Changing Market
That decision sparked a deeper shift. Starting this September, Gosia will be launching a new venture: a workspace operator and platform designed to revitalize underused commercial buildings across Luxembourg—drawing on nearly a decade of experience in curating inspiring work environments.
The concept is simple: many large companies are leaving behind older office buildings in central Luxembourg. At the same time, there’s a growing demand from startups, scale-ups, and agile teams for turnkey offices with flexible terms—no long leases, no setup stress, and a community feel.
Gosia’s new model offers exactly that. Her team partners with building owners to reactivate dormant spaces—handling everything from layout and furnishings to compliance, tenant onboarding, and daily operations. The result? Modular, ready-to-use offices, tailored to modern teams and infused with the same design sensibility and welcoming atmosphere that made The Office stand out.
“We take care of everything—from the furnishings and partitions to KYC and day-to-day logistics,” she explains. “The goal is to turn traditional spaces into customizable environments where modern teams feel at home.”
With this platform approach, Gosia is scaling her vision across multiple sites—helping landlords reduce vacancy while offering growing teams inspiring, flexible offices. And while the format evolves, the core remains: each space is crafted with the same attention to detail, quality, and community spirit that defined The Office from the very beginning.
The Last Independent Player
What sets Gosia apart is not just her agility, but her independence. In a landscape filled with government-backed incubators and institutional programs, The Office remains the only privately run coworking network of its scale in Luxembourg.
“It matters,” she says. “Capital needs privacy to operate. Diversity needs independence to thrive.” That independence, however, comes with its own challenges. From shuttering her beloved vegan café at Charlotte to making hard calls on real estate, Gosia has weathered it all. And yet, her mission remains unchanged: to create beautiful, sustainable spaces for people to do meaningful work.
“Every time I walk into Charlotte and see those 100-year-old windows we saved and restored, I remember why I started this. It’s not just business—it’s purpose-driven, sustainable entrepreneurship.”
Still Standing. Still Growing.
As the Luxembourg market continues to evolve, so does The Office.
Gosia’s message today is clear: The Office is not just open for business—it’s building the future of workspaces.
