Two new ways in,
this Spring only.

The 9/5 gets you a proper desk at our lowest rate. Common Room gets you the kitchen, the vinyl corner and the community, with no desk at all. Pick your fit.

How they compare

Same rules, two different fits

Both are Monday to Friday, both are pay-as-you-go with no lock-in, and both charge the meeting room and podcast studio the same way: booked and paid for before you use them, not invoiced afterward. The difference is simple -- one gets you a desk, the other doesn't.

Extras -- same for both, pay-as-you-go

Meeting room: R200/hour + VAT (R230 incl. VAT)

Podcast studio: R395/hour + VAT (R454.25 incl. VAT)

Book in advance. Paid upfront or on the day, before use -- not invoiced afterward.

Who they're for

Pick the one that matches your day

Need to focus at a desk → The 9/5
Budget-conscious, strictly office hours, don't need evenings or weekends. The 9/5 gets you in the door at our lowest rate.
Just need a base between meetings → Common Room
Back-to-back meetings across the city, or mostly working elsewhere. R895 buys a proper base camp instead of a coffee shop tab.
Want community without a desk → Common Room
You don't need a workstation, but you want the events, the WhatsApp group, and a room full of people worth knowing.
A day-pass regular, ready to commit → either
You've been buying day passes here and there. Whichever you use more -- the desk or the kitchen -- works out cheaper as a monthly rate.

Still deciding?

A viewing takes about 20 minutes. Come see both -- the workspace and the kitchen -- and we'll help you pick.
