WHAT OTHERS SAY
"Working with Artof.Co was key to bring momentum to our project and make wise decisions. The team, especially Gui and Christian, are amazing people to work with and true experts in their field."
Co-investor & Co-developer, Mama Pioneers
WHAT OTHERS SAY
"We had a clear view of the value we provided and clear view for our interior design, but for the rest, the coliving business was new to us in Europe (US coliving spaces like HackerHouse ran totally differently) and with all the uncertainties we needed help, as it's much better to get it right at front than to keep pivoting with the cost that this involves and how that will harm your brand... so getting the help, expertise and support from Gui was crucial at the beginning stages to make the right choices and get recognized within the industry."
CEO & Founder, Circles House
WHAT OTHERS SAY
"Having the Artof.Co team on our side gave us confidence in our project. From all the people we talked to, they were the ones who knew what they were talking about. I highly recommend to work with Gui and his team if you are needing support and advise for your coliving business."
