On the same note, I was visiting some nearby offices yesterday and they were admittedly…"not innovative". So much so that the person touring me kept apologizing, comparing them to Indy Hall. :)

Good natural light can make up the difference for a lot of things, I don't think it works the other way around. -- /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia On Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at 2:35 PM, Tom Brandt wrote: > I'm afraid that no matter "innovative" the design you will still feel like > you were living in a cave.
