Also anecdotally (or, rather, I just can’t provide a source), I heard from a philosophy professor that the low ceilings in cells of scholastic monks affected their thinking process, driving their hyper-focus on detailed arguments. I don’t quite remember which school he was comparing with though.
An alternative take - since the “abstract-detail-oriented” thinking may be susceptible to feedback-loops, one may consider that they are more detail-oriented in rooms with low ceilings and abstract-minded in rooms with high ceilings, and his brain will make it a self-fulfilling prophecy :)
I haven't tried any of the VR offices spaces, but from what I've seen, it looks like a SV office. What if one could VR conference/work in Muir Woods instead?
