The Common(ing)

The Common(ing) is a large, six-bed first floor dorm room with custom designed and built bunk beds and large windows providing lots of bright natural light.

Each bed has its own personal power point and reading light. There is also secure storage to keep your belongings safe free Wifi. Bed linen is provided on pre-made beds, and a light breakfast for each guest is also included. Shared shower and toilet facilities are available on the same floor. 

The Common(ing) was created and built by artist collective Sarah Li, Edwin Li and Lady Kitt as a shrine dedicated to “togetherness”, a place to enjoy and share acts of commoning. Created in celebration of our communities ‘round the corner and ‘round the world, this room is an invitation for travellers to leave something for future visitors and to take something away, creating a physical, audio, emotional and conceptual circular economy which encourages recycling, reusing and honouring.

There is a long, rich and beautiful history of travellers creating and visiting shrines. These can be destinations in their own right, or stopping places of safety and reflection along the way. Sarah, Edwin and Kitt have taken elements of this tradition and woven them through the practical functions of a bedroom, creating a space that is useful, interesting, restful and thought-teasing.
