Oh man, I once worked at a place where, for a time, all the programming staff got put on our own floor. JUST programmers. We didn't have managers (was a small company). It was seriously awesome. Not only was it really quiet, but basically all conversations were 100% "compatible" with how I was thinking. There were never people talking about some totally leftfield thing that totally threw me out of my focus zone (until a sales person would bring a client up to our floor to give a tour). It was a pretty unique experience. I don't think I've worked in any other office like that before or since.
