Anchor in: why one desk can change everything.

What if the thing your business really needs isn’t better WiFi or more flexibility… but one desk?

That’s how Anchor was born at ko&co. Not from a business plan, but from a conversation over wine with my best gal and first member, Monika.

She said, “I’d work better if I had a desk that was mine.”

And in that moment I realised: she wasn’t asking for furniture. She was asking to be anchored. To have rhythm. To belong.

That single nudge changed what ko&co has become.
