At my current workplace, we have a shared room for the developers and designers (5-9 people depending on the day and time), while the rest (~20 people) are spread in other bigger open spaces. I find that it works well, because we are mostly stationary and focused on a specific task, while the rest (sales, marketing, customer development, etc.) are constantly moving around, in meetings, visiting customers. In a mostly-tech company I couldn't imagine not having some compartments so that you don't suddenly find yourself 1 among 30 people in the same room - I'd go completely insane.
