Mobile and network technologies enable new ways of working (NWW) that disrupt spatial relations and move work to spaces outside formal organizational boundaries. This article addresses this shift by examining the spatial consequences of everyday practices of technology in the context of coworking spaces (CWS) as a pronounced example of where NWW take place. Conceptually, this article links research on technology as a sociomaterial practice with literature on organizational space. Empirically, it draws from a qualitative study of 25 CWS and offers a theorization of the co-constitutive processes with relevant insights for both technology and organization studies. First, this article adds to research on the relational and dialectic nature of technology by documenting its implications in the constitution of CWS as site, contestation, and atmosphere. Second, it contributes to existing knowledge on space by shifting the focus from physical sites to spatial atmospheres and vibes that are produced through technology use and the copresence of others. It problematizes engagement with NWW by highlighting how the flexibility to work anytime, anywhere is tied to new responsibilities, including spacing work and spatial self-management, as workers are required to coproduce and aptly navigate the sites and vibes of NWW to achieve personal productivity and affective sociality.

从场地到氛围:联合办公空间的技术和空间生产

移动和网络技术实现了新的工作方式 (NWW),可以破坏空间关系并将工作转移到正式组织边界之外的空间。本文通过在联合办公空间 (CWS) 的背景下检查日常技术实践的空间后果来解决这一转变,作为 NWW 发生的一个明显例子。从概念上讲,本文将技术作为一种社会物质实践的研究与有关组织空间的文献联系起来。从经验上讲,它借鉴了对 25 个 CWS 的定性研究,并为技术和组织研究提供了具有相关见解的共同构成过程的理论化。首先,本文通过记录技术在 CWS 作为站点的构成中的含义,增加了对技术的关系和辩证性质的研究。比赛气氛。其次,它通过将焦点从物理场所转移到通过技术使用和其他人的共存而产生的空间氛围和氛围,从而为现有的空间知识做出贡献。它通过强调随时随地工作的灵活性如何与新的职责相关联,包括间隔工作空间自我管理,从而解决了与 NWW 的接触问题因为工人需要共同生产和恰当地浏览 NWW 的网站和氛围,以实现个人生产力和情感社会性。
