As we look at new office space, I had to think about what we would want in new team rooms. Here is what I came up with, with the help of my team…

• Four walls (ideally with at least one being glass or lots of windows)
  • high enough to provide a sound barrier
  • lots of white-board space
  • wall of offices or conference rooms is OK as long as the doors can be closed
• At least 5 feet of desk space per person
• Ability to run HDMI to a large, shared monitor (probably on a rolling stand)
• 8 – 10 people per room (ideally with removable wall to combine two rooms)
• Private space nearby
• Manager’s office nearby
