Home office vs rent an office/co-working space (alien.top)

I'm a Solopreneur in the Digital Marketing space. I run eCommerce stores online and my partner help me with the repetitive tasks and more.

For the past 1.5 years, I'm living in a studio apartment and working from there. But months after months, I'm realizing that doing everything (living, cooking, working, etc.) in one place not working productively the way I hoped it would.

After realizing that my productivity is downgrading, I'm thinking to rent a seperate office/co-working space. My partner also thinks that it'd be better for both of us if we have a seperate space just for work.

Now I know that working from home and working from an office, both would have pros and cons. I suppose, many of you must've faced the similar problem at some point in your own business journey. What did you do and what worked best for you, your office, and team?

Personally, I'm thinking to rent a small office/co-working space cause in the upcoming months I'm planning to hire an extra member or two for my team as my online business grows. So it'd be better for me and my partner to get the habit of working from an office space prior I hire someone and expand my team.

Or, I can move to a bigger 2BHK flat and use that extra room as my office space.

There won't be one fit answer for this situation/problem, so I want to know what was your own experience and solution if you were in a similar situation in the past.

That's the kind of response I was hoping for. Sweet and simple.

It IS a mess when you're doing every effin' thing in your home and that, too, in a studio apartment nonetheless.

And as I'm planning to hire in the upcoming months, renting an office space would be better and more professional. Though, till then I can try co-working space for a while to dip my toes in the water(office culture) and see how it goes.

Thank you for your valuable suggestion, brother. I'll definitely follow this.
