  Well, that depends. You can either have the private offices around the perimeter and with windows and natural light, or put the shared workspace areas near the natural light. But there's only so much perimeter to go around... Personally I'd be OK with a office with little natural light, as long as A. there's no flourescent light, and B. I have somewhere comfortable I can go sit that is near natural light, when I need light. Frankly, natural light is less important to me, than freedom from distracting noise, motion, smells, etc., and a sense of privacy. The other thought I have on this, is to put shared work area near the windows, and then try to design the layout of the rest of the building to try to expose the "bowels" of the floor to as much natural light as possible. In a building where skylights are an option, that might be a way to help things out.
