[Coworking] Re: Windows or no Windows that is the question
My coworkers might just be weird, but I often find them all working away in the dark. CoVis has two moderately-sized windows that let in the daylight, they seem to prefer it as they rarely turn on the lights during the day. - Skid Vis CoVis CoWorking - www.covisco.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Coworking group.

For me, first, most important is the ability for different companies/ organizations working in the same space without interrupting/ disrupting the workflow. So, my first concern or preference is an environment where, since I am sometimes on conference calls, soundproofed - So an office with a divided area surrounded by either glass or some transparent soundproofed material [I hear that they are coming out with new more soundproof recycled wax paper type dividers soon] For me, soundproofing is key.

Re: [Coworking] Re: Windows or no Windows that is the question
Let's clarify a little. Do you really need soundproof as in you could scream inside and no one outside would hear you? Or just muffle normal discussions and some raised voices? People often come into our space and question if there's sufficient soundproofing/resistance/muffling and privacy. What I ask them is, how private and how often do they really need these factors? And if so, will they pay for them? In general, the answers are no. They just think they do and particularly, they don't want to pay for these. Unless you are working on top secret NSA stuff or in the case of LA, tv scripts for the next episode, your privacy and acoustic needs are way overblown, in sacrifice to the benefits of collaborations and affordability. And Kirsten and many others: glass is $$. Movable walls are $$. Movable glass walls are $. And finally, if you need to yell in the office, maybe it's time to reassess yourself.

[Coworking] Re: Windows or no Windows that is the question
Hi Adam, Our space is an old church with narrow but 8ft high windows on the north south sides which let in a lot of natural light. Interestingly, I've noticed that our members have all naturally gravitated to the south side where the most light pours in - so I suppose that says that these people crave the natural light. I was concerned initially that as clouds moved to block the sun and dimmed it that the light level change would be distracting. So I invested in a LOT of compact fluorescent grow lights for our overhead lighting. They're hardly noticeable on a bright sunny day, but as the day wanes, or on overcast days, it balances the light. The thing about grow lights is that they emit a close-to-daylight spectrum which means they feel like natural lighting. I use a brand called 'Sun-Blaster' if you're interested. They aren't cheap, but they're super efficient and everyone comments on how good the light feels in our spaces that aren't blessed with windows. I bought mine at a plant nursery, but you can also find them at hydroponics stores. Hope this helps!!

Um, windows. No matter what unless all of your prospective members have been dying to NOT have windows. My members never even turn on the lights--even when it's cloudy and dark out.
