Honestly, though, it's too dark, the chair is hard, the table is too low, there's a distracting side light glare, the whole room is cold, damp and drafty, and you're constantly dodging tourists "ooh"ing and "aah"ing your place of work.
Been there, done that. Give me a functional 80's office building any time.
I once got to study at a library something like that, the Berenson library at I Tatti in Florence. It was so beautiful that I found it a little difficult to concentrate.

in reply to Eugen Rochko • • •I’m so sorry for anyone that had to do actual office work there. Can’t be ergonomic.
But if it’s a library or a place to have som good food and a beer, have at it.

in reply to Eugen Rochko • • •Damn that’s a nice little library space.
There is a public library with similar vibes around here, I need to go pop my laptop open in it more often.
