Cubicles do not have to be drab and have depressing lighting. Everywhere I have gone I decorate my cubicle so it feels happy for me and I often bring my own full spectrum lighting. The size of the cubicle has to be quite large for it to not be suffocating though. I could easily fit 4 people seated inside my current cubicle, and it feels quite nice. I do agree that having private offices is way better, and the idea of having a building full of private offices seems great, but it is much more expensive than open floorplans with cubes. ( consider heating/cooling of many offices... having a maze of pathways to maximize the size of offices... ) Concentric rings of offices might work as a floorplan though??
