Mostly startups and then to management types in Silicon Valley, which has been picked up spread beyond corporations and educational institutions used to justify more cramming people together in the interests of "collaboration". I saw it over at PayPal, where they were pushing it as a means for "fostering creativity and collaboration". Tore down cubicles and put in long rows with 1 ft high partitions. Just awful for concentration, focus work, staying in a flow and getting work done.
