Engage and collaborate with visionary business owners in a kick-ass shared office space.
The Creative Fringe is more than a shared office space for business owners and commuters. We are a dynamic coworking community in Penrith that thrives on innovation. That fosters collaboration. That builds strong businesses.
That engages. Inspires. Connects.
The Creative Fringe began with a simple idea: to bring people together.
When our founder, Debbie O’Connor, first envisioned the space, it was a hub for creatives—a place where designers, writers, and makers could work side by side, sharing ideas and inspiration. It was about community, about breaking the isolation of working alone, and about fostering collaboration. And for a while, that was exactly what we did.
But the world changed. COVID-19 shifted the way people worked, and suddenly, the need wasn’t just for shared creativity—it was for space. A place where people could work away from the distractions of home, where businesses could grow without long leases or hefty overheads, and where professionals could connect without feeling lost in a sea of corporate offices.
So, we adapted with more purpose built private offices, meeting spaces, and a training room. We opened our doors to a wider community—freelancers, consultants, small businesses, and startups—offering them not just a desk, but a place to belong. The open-plan collaboration remained, but now, so did the option for privacy, for deep focus, for teams to gather and plan.
Through it all, creativity remains at our core. Our artisan-led workshops became a way for our local makers to share their skills, for people to reconnect with their hands, and for creativity to thrive in new ways. The Creative Fringe was no longer just a coworking space—it became a living, breathing ecosystem of business, learning, creativity and connection..
The Creative Fringe has always been ahead of the curve. What started as a space for creatives has evolved into a thriving upbeat community for business, innovation, and connection. And just like the businesses we support, we continue to grow, adapt, and shape what comes next.
Because The Creative Fringe isn’t just about work—it’s about community. It’s about finding your place. And it’s about belonging.
We step beyond the boundaries of conventional thinking, where we connect a diverse range of freelancers, consultants and small business operators through our amazing community. This helps connect people, encourages collaboration and assists in growing business. The Creative Fringe is far more than simply a desk to hire.
Penrith might be on the fringe of Sydney, but The Creative Fringe is a game changer – we are leading the way, no longer on the outskirts of creative and technical development.
