The Chinese coworking industry has experienced substantial growth; however, research on coworking spaces in China remains limited. This study conducts a comprehensive literature review, analyzing 51 studies on coworking environments across various disciplines and countries. While most research focuses on managerial and organizational aspects, the role of the physical environment has been overlooked. To address this gap, a conceptual framework was developed to highlight the effects of the physical environment on social interactions among coworking-users, fostering a sense of community within coworking spaces. This study aims to enhance coworking environments in China, supporting users' entrepreneurial success through an interior architecture perspective.
