I'm going to provide a dissenting opinion on this, but not to say I would avoid windows altogether: windows can be distracting (outside noises like fire trucks, buses, trucks, etc. can spill in much easier) and focus people to look out, vs. within the office where the community is. Windows were traditionally viewed as ideal because perimeter office people could stare out to a view and think. To me, that sounds like someone who wants to isolate himself, vs. be in the mix of a community in the central open space.
Something to think about. Design your space appropriately.
