在家辦公受干擾？咖啡廳又太嘈雜？對于自由職業者和一些人數不多的初創企業來說，去哪里辦公成為一大困擾。因此，“合伙辦公”這一新形式日益受到青睞。

Coworking is a style of work that involves a shared working environment, often an office, and independent activity. Unlike in a typical office environment, those coworking are usually not employed by the same organization.
“合伙辦公”是一種以共享工作環境，而各自獨立活動為特色的辦公形式，通常是共享一間辦公室。與傳統的辦公環境不同，合伙辦公的人員通常受雇于不同的機構。

Typically it is attractive to work-at-home professionals, independent contractors, or people who travel frequently who end up working in relative isolation.
“合伙辦公”對在家辦公的人士、獨立合同工、經常到處旅行而工作相對隔離的人們很有吸引力。

Since 2006 a few studies have shown the number of coworking spaces and available seats have roughly doubled each year.

Coworking offers a solution to the problem of isolation that many freelancers experience while working at home, while at the same time letting them escape the distractions of home.
很多自由職業者在家工作時感到疏離，“合伙辦公”解決了他們的這一困擾，同時又能讓他們避免受到家中的干擾。
