So when does anyone get down to doing any work in your plan? I mean, you're there assuming everyone is there to do things for you (talk about your ideas, test your stuff) or free to waste time with you (talk about things that interest you). Presumably everyone else is coming to it with basically the same idea. So when is anyone supposed to do any work?

If someone is trying to go heads-down, then can let other people know (or maybe use a do-not-disturb sign / flag or similar), but I think of it more as something you would do when you're in the mood for possible engagement/interruption rather than just straight working; in cases where you wanted to be sure you'd not be interrupted, there's always regular co-working spaces/your apartment/regular coffee shops. This would be more for "I'm working, but not so intensively that you can't talk to me" times.

  I think earbuds / headphones are the internationally recognized sign for "head-down / do-not-disturb".
