Working is good. Working calmly is better. At Coser, we know that stress is part of everyday life for many freelancers and teleworkers. Tight deadlines, constant demands, repeated visions… It doesn’t take much to see productivity plummet and motivation melt away.
And what if the solution lay in… calm? Let’s take a look together at the concrete benefits of the quiet spaces we’ve set up at Coser, designed to promote concentration, well-being and mental equilibrium.

1. Calm, an underestimated resource
In today’s fast-paced world, ambient noise (conversations, notifications, calls, etc.) can become a real stress factor. According to a study by the University of California, it takes an average of 23 minutes to regain concentration after a noise interruption. Imagine the impact on an entire working day.
At Coser, we’ve designed silent zones for those who need to refocus. No conversations, no phone calls: just you, your focus, and a peaceful environment.

2. A soothing design
Our quiet spaces aren’t just “quiet”: they’re intentionally soothing. Natural light, green plants, soft materials and neutral colours encourage cognitive relaxation. This is what we call biophilic design, a concept that connects humans with nature to reduce stress and stimulate creativity.
3. The right to disconnect
We encourage our members to use these areas for conscious breaks: reading, meditation, listening to soothing music (with headphones, of course). A moment’s disconnection can be enough to reset the brain, like a mental “reset”.
4. Le calme, ça se partage
Ce qui rend nos espaces calmes efficaces, c’est aussi le respect mutuel. Chez Coser, le calme est une valeur commune : nos coworkers comprennent l’importance de préserver ces bulles de sérénité, et cela crée une vraie ambiance de bienveillance et de concentration collective.
taking care of your mind also means working better
Stress doesn’t disappear by magic, but the right working environment can change everything. At Coser, we firmly believe that well-being is a lever for performance, not a bonus.
