away Center, India’s pioneering wellness-forward coworking brand, has launched its newest hub in Koramangala, marking its entry into Bengaluru’s vibrant startup and creative ecosystem. Rooted in design, wellness, and culture, the brand aims to reimagine coworking as a space for purpose and presence rather than scale alone.
Unlike mass-market coworking operators, away caps each hub at under 20,000 sq. ft., ensuring intimacy, design quality, and community depth. The Koramangala center features natural light-filled layouts, spacious work zones, and an integrated café front that welcomes both members and visitors.
Udbhav Jalan, Founder, away Center, said: “Coworking doesn’t need more square footage, it needs more soul. The industry scaled fast, and somewhere along the way, intention got replaced by occupancy dashboards. away brings back what truly matters: design that inspires, communities that care, and systems that build better teams, not just bigger offices.”
The hub introduces a new vocabulary for workspaces: Stillness Rooms and Meditation Corners for focus, Private Studios, Open Stations, and Enterprise Suites for varied work modes, and a Reset Bar that doubles as the cultural heart of the community. The café, open to non-members, offers barista-crafted coffee and a wellness-aligned menu curated with Food Maki and Shooketh Bakery.
Programming at away goes beyond convenience, with weekly yoga sessions, daily meditations, and curated cultural evenings ranging from acoustic gigs to wellness workshops. Members also gain access to executive coaches, therapists, and mindfulness mentors on demand.
The Bengaluru launch follows away’s debut in Vizag earlier this year, with upcoming hubs planned in Hyderabad, Gurgaon, and a second Vizag location by early 2026. Each operates on away’s “Nano-GCC” model — a distributed network of human-scale workspaces enabling companies to build small, autonomous teams in Tier 2 and 3 cities.
By blending premium infrastructure with conscious culture, away Center positions itself as a mindful alternative in India’s coworking landscape, offering spaces where work, wellness, and community coexist with intent.
