I like the open office layout most of the time because I find that learning and team bonding occurs very quickly in these setups. An ideal environment for me would be an open office most of the time but with four walled offices available for me to occupy on a weekly reservation basis where I can get some coding work done when I need to focus. Something soundproofed maybe, to allow me to play music without needing headphones. We had such a setup in one of the engineering buildings in university and I found that I really thrived when I was able to "plug-out" when I needed to focus and "plug-in" when I needed to work with other people - all while not having to wear headphones!
