Interesting stuff going on here. "Can it cross the chasm, and go from being a marginal counter-cultural trend to a mainstream model of work?"
Alex and Geoff from IndyHall in Philly can answer in more detail, but judging from their experience and direction, the answer to that is yes. Perhaps not with every space, but certainly with them at this juncture in the "movement". And to speak in some generalizations: The popularity of Cubes n' Crayons in Bay Area echoes one of the fundamental problems of the traditional workforce which is its inability to afford life balance for those who make the move to have children. Those then, therefore, leave to blaze their own path, more likely drawn to community and support in doing so. I believe there's more than a kernel of a new model of work going on there.
