This speculative project responds to Australia’s refugee crisis via overt and covert tactics. The Hotel aims to intervene in the relentless cycle of temporary visa refugees unable to work, through a reinvented type of transient lodging. Sited off a disused multi-storey carpark facade in Melboune CBD, the Hotel asks how hospitable architectures/infrastructures might operate as a mediated and mediating ground for new visitors in an environmentally inhospitable surplus city fabric.
