You’ll definitely get work done at these spaces.

Working from home in your comfy clothes sounds like an ideal office situation, but sometimes it can prove to be more of a problem instead. The cups of Starbucks coffee and hipster cafes’ all-day breakfasts also don’t come cheap.

So whether you’re the next startup mogul or a work-from-home freelancer, we’ve rounded up some of the co-working spaces in Singapore where you can be productive and also network with other like-minded individuals.
