The new hybrid model of working has definitely come to stay. Never before did companies see themselves in this position where they have to acclimate so quickly to a new system, combining both face-to-face and online working.
In today’s article we’ll analyse this new kind of office that supports the brand-new hybrid model of working, one we’ll continue to hear of for a long time, for sure.
What is a hybrid office?
A hybrid office is a flexible workspace formula that allows your company to combine home and office working through team rotation.
Workspaces have matured rapidly for this past year of pandemic, and the hybrid office has become the best way forward for many companies and their employees.
This sort of office promotes a hybrid way of working, a mixture of remote working and physical presence at the office. While some may work from home, some others would come to the office, and so they’d rotate. All of them will have the opportunity to find a balance between coming back to the old days at the office and their new routines set after the pandemic.

Combining the best of both home and office work, this hybrid spaces, well un-known in the past, are now the alternative of choice for many!
Hybrid office benefits
As we’ve said before, the hybrid office brings you the best of both worlds: working from home and at the office, creating then a hybrid formula.
Actually, it will resolve almost every issue derived from both models, namely:
> Those working from home will not develop that strong sense of belonging within the company. Hybrid working fights this, making meetings with the team possible again in order to get that bond back.
> There is no need to choose between home and office working, you can mix both!
> The hybrid office is, above all, flexible: your company will be able to use only what’s necessary at a given moment, with no extra payment commitment.
Employees will appreciate the opportunity of working far away from the usual noise and chaos at home, but always in balance with their personal life.
What’s the difference between hybrid office and home-office?
Home-office implies setting a fully-equipped office in your house. Many had to be built during quarantine because everybody needed, and quickly, some quiet place to work at home.
The hybrid office goes beyond that: it means having that home-office for those days working at home, but it also means spending some days every week at the office with the rest of the team. Isolation will no longer be an issue!
An example? Meet Lexington!
Our hybrid offices were born because we wanted you to introduce this new way of working as smoothly as possible in your company.
That is the reason behind our monthly contracts, our 24/7 access passes to the office and our classic services such as meeting rooms and call handling.
What’s more, a hybrid office in Lexington comes with a special bonus: FREE additional passes to our common areas for as many as would fit within the office of your choice. What does this mean? Imagine you rent a space for 10 people, for instance, but your whole 20 people team can be at the office at the same time: 10 people would use the office itself, and the remaining 10 would spread around our common areas to choose where to work.
In Lexington, we have readjusted our whole catalogue of services to meet our client’s highest expectations, and we are sure the hybrid office is a perfect match. So, if you are currently looking for a flexible office in Barcelona or Madrid, don’t be a stranger!
