Are Co-Living Spaces The Way Forward?

Co-living spaces are often characterised by communal living arrangements and a strong sense of community and have become increasingly popular, particularly among working professionals who are seeking flexible and vibrant living solutions.

At the forefront of this is Bespoke Habitat, a company that has been shaping the landscape of shared spaces since its establishment in 2019. Bespoke Habitat has been creating flexible and affordable housing solutions in Singapore and now, the company has expanded its footprint to Malaysia, specifically Johor Bahru, unveiling an exclusive co-living space designed to cater to the needs of the ever-mobile working professionals.

To explore this evolving trend, the state of co-living spaces in Malaysia and what the future holds for Bespoke Habitat, I’m joined today by Ernee Ong, Co-founder of Bespoke Habitat.
