Common Practice Workshop is a shared workspace on the Bowery. We’re a community of designers, architects, writers, and other creative people.
We are generally referral or invite only, but we’re always open to meeting new people who would be a good fit for our community. If you’re interested in a desk, please email us and tell us a little about yourself, what you do, and what you’re looking for in a workspace.
Our full-floor space has great natural light, high ceilings, high-speed internet, and dedicated desks. Members have 24/7 access, two conference rooms, and a phone room. We prefer people who are looking to stay for a while, as we seek a cohesive group with room for collaboration and projects.
Looking for something short-term or a little different? We’re always open to hearing about unique inquiries -- just reach out.
Get in touch to introduce yourself or ask a question:
The name Common Practice was coined by one of our founding members, Adam Koogler (back when we were a band of Occupy-adjacent artist-activists). We think it speaks to the horizontal connections between the different disciplines we work alongside -- and emphasizes an aspirational goal of doing creative work towards a common good.
We share the floor with Hell Gate, the amazing employee-owned local news organization, which also runs a podcast studio in the space.
