My work place everyday is actually in a large common lounge area in MIT’s Media Lab. While I do have an office space in the research center, I actually enjoy working in a common area. There’s a scenic view of MIT and Charles River, great morning and afternoon lighting – and best of all, a very large 60 inch LED TV that MIT staff occasionally come by to watch segments of the key matches of the World Cup now. I’m not really following the world cup this time round myself, but it’s still fun to soak in the atmosphere when the staff come out to watch.
A view of the lounge; yep I sit on the carpeted floor when I work (panorama composition):

This is what I mean.:)
There was a hilarious commercial running on TV just now too. I’m not gonna say much about it, but watch it!
There’s a making-of feature of too that talks about how this very innovative commercial was made.:)
Ooh, don’t they mind you sitting on the floor? Were there others doing to same as well? :) The lounge looks so comfy with natural lighting.
I’m the only person sitting on the floor – but the environment’s pretty casual.:)
