How should I set up my office environment?

This idea about not-quite-working-from-home is great. The problem is that I don't live in cali, and I'm looking for the practical aspects rather than the lifestyle. I've seen other setups where small firms share an office space, a receptionist, etc. -- how can I get in on something like that?
Try searching for "business incubator," which is a similar kind of set-up that tends to be less swanky and more affordable, and geared toward providing the basic services (space, clerical support, office equiment, etc.) that small businesses and entrepreneurs need to get on their feet. You might want to check out the National Business Incubator Association .

There are many firms that lease/rent equipped offices already: you get basic administrative staff, furniture, copiers, etc. However, the cost is usually very high --but worth it if you have a short term project or can't handle the commitment. My former employer used Regus: expensive but good with centrally-located offices world-wide. I am sure there are others.
