On this episode of the GCUC Podcast, host, Liz Elam is joined by siblings Giles and Niki Fuchs—the visionary minds behind Office Space in Town (OSiT) and the iconic Burgh Island Hotel.
From transforming historic buildings into thriving coworking hubs to running one of the UK’s most beloved heritage hotels, their story is one of bold decisions, emotional design, and a shared vision for the future of workspaces.
In this episode, they open up about:
- How hospitality and coworking intersect—and why it matters
- What the hotel world taught them about creating emotionally resonant experiences
- Why trust between family founders is their secret weapon
- And the surprising reason they traded London’s cityscape for a windswept island off the Devon coast
“Hospitality is the invisible layer. It’s not just what you offer—it’s how you make people feel.” – Giles Fuchs
If you're passionate about designing spaces people actually want to be in—whether for work, rest, or inspiration—this conversation is for you.
