The paper deals with the possibilities of development of the co-working centers in academic institutions. Co-working is an innovative business and lifestyle trend that is developing in an environment of independent professionals. Various creative experts (graphic designers, marketers, copywriters, experts on internet marketing, website, visual communication, etc.) work together in a shared center. They have necessary technical equipment and creative background and provide services for the external environment. In the academic environment, the center is actually a kind of business incubator, which develops students' ability and practical skills focused on real business.

Co-working space has grown rapidly throughout the world over the past 10 years. At present the co-working space is increasingly favored given the informal creative industry is increasingly developing. Creative industry players tend to like dynamics and flexibility. Co-Working Space is an ideal place for Start-Ups that are growing in Indonesia. In Surabaya, the annual growth of the rental office demand index is superior among other cities. The purpose of this study will be to identify factors that influence the preferences of user co-working space in Surabaya. The research strategy used is the correlational method, which aims to determine the correlation between the design preferences of user co-working space and variables "lifestyle/lifestyle of the creative industry. The results of this study indicate that the factors that influence the user preference design co-working space are demographic variables (age, gender), Phycycographic (motivation), income, profession, and user domicile. And the results of the study show that lifestyle users influence the design preferences of the chosen co-working space.

A specific form of nonstandard employment is presented by electronic freelancers, e.g. self-employed professionals working remotely via the Internet. Andrey Shevchuk and Denis Strebkov launched Russian Freelance Survey (RFS) that brought more than 10,000 usable responses in each of two waves in 2008 and 2010, making RFS one of the largest freelance surveys in the world. Using these unique data sets, the authors describe the main socio-economic characteristics of freelancers and address the issues of informality, opportunism and trust in the Russian-speaking e-lance market.

"Office work has traditionally been associated with administrative and intellectual production. The demand for more timely information and a quest for ever greater productivity has led to the changes in the workspace through the centuries. Our workplaces have become more functional and productive, but also subsequently places of interaction and socialization, where the human dimension have emerged gradually. At a time when the mantra `innovate or die` and `find the next big thing` rings uncomfortably in company CEO`s ears, designers need to change the office layouts to help promote interactions and encourage serendipity amongst creative employees. This in turn needs different forms of organizational corporate culture that supports collaborative work. Companies on the creative edge need to establish rich and diverse in-house office environments that provide a level of comfort and a wide range of facilities where creative work can be done in a collaborative way through exercising considerable judgement and intelligence. This paper proposes that these offices should be more than just shared open-plan offices - they need to be spaces used by a diverse group of people (co-workers) for collaboration, community building and idea sharing. Originally, the term ‘co-working space’ refers to a new shared working environment for freelancers and other location-independent professionals who are tired of the isolation of their home offices and the distraction of their local coffee shops. However the paper proposes that the model used for co-working spaces can also be applied to company environments in order to boost creativity and innovation. To see whether this option is profitable for R&D activities, the co-working values (collaboration, community, sustainability, openness and accessibility) can be used as a guide for where to set up such spaces; how to operate on a daily basis; and how to stimulate employees’ creativity. In this paper the key values will be discussed from a practical perspective and used for the understanding of how these principles can be applied to R&D workspaces in companies to encourage creative behaviour and support innovative projects.

Third places, such as business incubators, co-working spaces and work collectives, represent a new ecosystem of collaborative working practices in the creative economy that alters significantly the spatial distribution of work and the notion of “workplace”. Collaborative workplaces emerged after the gradual collapse of the stable employment paradigm that was one of the main features of the Keynesian welfare state and as a response to precarious working conditions that were augmented during the recent economic crisis and the subsequent recession. The paper contributes to the critical understanding of these new geographies of workplace and working conditions that third places manifest. Using data from a large survey about the economics and the working conditions of Greek designers and from four interviews with freelancers in work collectives and facilitators of co-working spaces, the paper sheds light on the socio-economic profile and the working conditions of Greek freelance designers that use co-working spaces and work collectives as means of reducing precarious working conditions and personal-professional risks. The results show that designers in third places, in contrast to freelancers that use formal workplaces or work from home, work long hours with poor pay and a large proportion has no safety net, concerning social security. Third places can be enclaves of the shadow economy and of very specific precarious working conditions. On the other hand, third places help freelance designers become more embedded to business networks, both local and foreign, rather than working in isolation. By allowing the sharing of projects, business intelligence, resources and social time, third places appear to successfully counterbalance the pervasive immaterialization of labour. Networking effects between freelancers and self-employed that choose to work in third places usually result in greater opportunities for outsourcing and subcontracting and in more exports.
The exponential growth of freelance working arrangements and the reshaping of the labour market through digital transformation bring new challenges in terms of the ways employment is accessed and exercised, and workers protected. As organisations optimise and rationalise, adopting leaner organisational designs and re-organising from vertically integrated structures to horizontal and networked models, work is becoming increasingly fragmented, flexible, temporary, on-demand and projectdriven. The change in work patterns is most dramatic in the Cultural and Creative Industry (CCI) sector with as much as half of the workforce in freelance self-employment. Although own-account workers have long been present both in the CCI and other sectors, their numbers have risen and new forms of employment that correspond neither to traditional self-employment, nor to economically dependent employment, have emerged. These developments, along with other particularities of freelance work, have triggered a broad debate about working conditions, regulatory approaches and labour protection mechanisms within the emerging freelance labour market. The paper analyses the position of freelance workers in the new labour market.
The transformation of the celebrity concept has become an important topic of sociology and media studies in recent years. The most important factors intervening in this process are a change of communication behavior of the young age cohorts and an effort of “fame seekers” to use the new communication channels. In our study, we analyze the state of celebrities´ perception by the age cohort of adolescents in the Slovak Republic. The study is based on the original exploratory research composed of two phases. In the initial part we define the group of celebrities who are potentially well recognizable by the research group that we then test for the quality of knowledge. We apply a polarity profile method, including three investigated dimensions: attractiveness, credibility and likeability of examined celebrities. The analytical part compares the acquired knowledge in terms of three types of celebrity status. Our research indicates challenge to the popular theses, according to which the concept of current celebrity for adolescents clearly transformed in favor of digital celebrities (YouTubers, Bloggers, etc.).
