The world has been going through great behavioral transformations, based mainly on digital transformation and disrupted by the pandemic of COVID-19. Faced with this scenario, human characteristics come to the fore, such as the need for socialization, cooperation and the search for a better life. A new typology emerges from these needs: Coworking, which is a space that offers, in addition to the necessary infrastructure for daily work, a range of important solutions, such as the creation of a professional and entrepreneurial community that is capable of moving the market as a whole. Intrinsically linked to the collective, Coworking provides another important aspect, the network, that is, the possibility of meeting people and doing business. The objective of this study was to develop a building project that receives professional and educational activities, which is the stage for the emergence of new ideas, the creation of an entrepreneurial community based on the Coworking work model and which is the result of a partnership between public and private initiative , bringing social opportunities to the municipality. To this end, the current study was carried out from a theoretical framework that could explain the interference of technology in working methods, the consequences of the pandemic, the parameters of education in a digital scenario, in addition to methodologies that develop contemporary skills, a study case study that raised a set of references that correlate with the theoretical framework, which discuss the problems presented and will influence the architecture to be developed, an area diagnosis so that it could guide the project development and the proposal that guided the architectural choices and that composed the party, supporting the diagnosis of the

area. This research demonstrated an understanding of the needs of education and work, based on human behavior, highlighting important issues such as remote work / study, social interaction and the development of skills and competences based on the current scenario. From the urban point of view, the Conjunto Habitacional Centenário neighborhood, located in Varginha / MG, has essential characteristics to receive a Coworking, because it has high demographic density, easy road access and vocation to establish itself as a sub-center.
