Reminds me of my previous (BigCorp) employer who spent millions on redesigning office spaces from individual offices to a network for cube-farms. These were expensive cubes too, because you could move them around and orient them in different configuration to enhance team collaboration. Of course, in reality, no one bothered to move heavy walls around when they could just walk over. Also management, didn't let people organically disperse, instead they assigned cubes to people in the most inefficient configuration possible.

You should have written this a few years ago. ;-)
