I haven't posted a 'would you' discussion for some time now, so here's my latest hypothetical based on the fact I now work from a shared office.
Would you work at a nude shared office space?
*It's many different companies sharing the common areas (kitchen, lounge, meeting rooms) and you can hot desk or have a dedicated office
*It's nude not clothing optional, and you must always have your own towel to be seated
*You must arrive clothed and can only undress once in the change room at the office - departure being the opposite
*Reception and management staff are nude but cleaners (janitors) and security are not as they service other businesses.
*Visitors may be clothed or opt to undress in the change room

So would you work here?

    Oh, definitely! I can imagine it to be a pretty relaxed atmosphere there.

    It being a shared office space instead of a single company could also make it more "communal" so to speak. Meeting different people in the coffee room could be refreshing.

    Kind of like a naked Starbucks? What happens when you have to be on a video conference with members of your company that are not at this nude site? With hybrid working I already can do this when I work from our nudist resort by sitting in the community center. I usually spend Fridays in our trailer at the resort just because it is quieter, but if others were working from a common area I would join them.

You know it's filming you nude but dressing you so others see your clothes these body!

    Do you think that there would be enough people that were allowed to work primarily remotely that would be interested in doing this to make it economically viable?

    Not QUITE what's being asked in this thread, but I already do work in (somewhat) the same situation, and almost always I am the only person in the office who chooses to be fully nude. Mind you, it's the office at a nude resort. Plenty of customers walk in bare, and the bossman is often almost naked (except his ubiquitous hat) if it's warm enough outside, but other than that, I'm wearing sandals and a smile, and nearly always the only fully-bared staff. And I don't fret their choice -- it is their prerogative.

    A large reason I applied for the job last spring was the perk of never having to put anything on, and the 100 yard commute does not suck either. As to why my co-workers do choose clothing over the comfort and simplicity of nothing, I cannot say. Every one of us a full-time resident, having made the choice to live behind the fences of a nudity-required (when weather permits) community. Coming to work clothed and staying that way all day -- unless the heating system that's built into the floor wears them down, and they may remove something then -- and that's okay by me, but I'm not in any way interested. Do customers see my bareness as some lack of professionalism? NMP!

    Sort of related, some of us are doing this now - virtually. There are Discord groups where we nude co-work on cam. It is nice to work with others even virtually as working from home can be lonely.

So the only difference is the nudity. And personally I believe there is enough demand. But am betting here in Brisbane Australia the gender skew to male would be about 80 to 90%

    I would too. A business experimented for a month a few years ago: https://www.brandiconimage.com/2015/04/what-our-office-learned-working-naked.html.

    At least one person on this site and one on another were nudists who owned a small business.
    One of them was nude when he thought he was alone at the workplace, but eventually everyone had stopped by unexpectedly an saw him nude, so he just stopped wearing clothes at work. Some others joined him, some did not.
    The other, from when he started his business, told prospective employees that he was usually nude at work and they were free to be nude or clothed, Most chose nude.

    When I bought my biz in 2019 I had a private office on a diff floor from staff. I freq worked nude and dressed quickly if a y staff needed to come up (rare). Unfortunately COVID kicked the crap out of me and my biz and I had to downsize space and staff which eliminated the nude office work unless I go in on a weekend afternoon, which is rare.

    [quote]At least one person on this site and one on another were nudists who owned a small business.[/quote] This is unusual, but not unheard of. I had a nudist friend who was a business partner of a small repair shop. When he worked in the back office, he was nude. That was confirmed when I paid him a surprise visit; and he indeed was naked doing paperwork in the back office lol! It was certainly an interesting situation. He was already a nudist when him and a (non-nudist) friend decided to start the business. They agreed that the back office would be a "naked space." They then hired a front desk clerk; and explained to her the "back office situation", which she actually ok with. The clerk lady was eventually extended an invitation to visit my friend's resort with him; which she actually agreed to! When I met her she told me she didn't really have any issues being naked there - or my friend (her employer) seeing her naked - but for her it was a one-time thing. But she would sometimes co-work in the back office with my friend - while he was naked; and had no issues with it. But she told me she started dating someone who wasn't too happy with that "arrangement"; so out of respect for him he started covering up when they shared the back room.

    That is a sad development in an otherwise pleasant story, and what seems like a common theme - a new partner's concerns getting in the way of a perfectly natural platonic arrangement. Too bad she couldn't have chosen a new partner who has a stronger constitution and full trust in their relationship. "Out of respect" the situation changed and for the dumbest reason - someone outside of the office ends up dictating the sanctity of the bare safe space. I hope she soon discovers other faults in her choice and kicks that childish guy to the curb. Nude ain't lewd, dude!

    I have read here and on other sites about small business owners who worked nude and allowed their employees to do so if they wanted to.

    I'd be good with it. And 3 of the 4 people I work with agreed and the hold out is male.
