Awesome But Lonely Workstations?
WebUrbanist’s recent article on these super cool and sexy workstations point to a future where we’ll spend even more time on computers and the internet:

But it strikes me that these workstations are designed to keep you in them for long periods of time. This would limit the physical social interaction with the people working around you. One of the things I love about working in a shared co-working space is the random bursts of conversation now and then which either inform or amuse! I also like getting up from my desk to “re-boot” my brain and make a brew for everyone.
If these workstations are the future, then it will be a lonely one. No, co-working is far better! Work for yourself, not by yourself – come and work with us at FlyThe.Coop!
