Nuffnang founder Tim Tiah launches new venture

Say hello to Colony — the newest entrant into the booming local co-working space scene.

The newcomer is the brainchild of Nuffnang founder Tim Tiah and popular blogger Audrey Ooi of fourfeetnine.com. At first thought, Colony may give you the impression of being another stylistically and fashionable venue to get cracking at those spreadsheets, but its vision goes beyond obsoleting the need for cubicles or flexibility. 

“In the past 20 years, our quality of life has improved. We eat better food, live in better homes, drive cars that are getting safer and have better healthcare. However, the way we work has remained the same. We want to change that,” says Tim. 

“We have a strong belief that work doesn’t need to be all drudgery, that motivated employees perform best when they are happy. Work takes up at least 40 hours of our lives each week and it needs to feel great for us to do great. This is where Colony comes in,” adds Audrey. 

Colony’s concept sees a number of amenities housed under one roof with the sole objective of attractive and retaining talent by offering them a workspace that lets them live while they work and not corner them into deciding between the two. 

Facilities include a nap area for some quick shuteye, a massage room where a certified masseuse can be hired on an ad-hoc basis, an exclusive lounge with high ceilings and full height windows, and access to a rooftop gym and swimming pool where tenants can work out with a full view of the KL city skyline.

But don’t just take our word for it. Check out the visuals below and head on over to http://colony.work for more info.
