I'm in an office with about twenty other PhDs. Next door is another office with about another twenty desks, although lots of those are hot-desks for part-time PhDs. (Full-time PhDs get their own desks, part-times don't.) I go in most days, probably about four days a week on average. I can only get certain kinds of work done there - writing is better than reading, for me, in that environment. If I'm reading, I go to the coffee bar, the library or stay at home.
I'm transferring universities soon, and I hear that my dept at the new place has larger work rooms. Should be interesting to meet people from other disciplines, at least!
