I've actually worked in a small team environment several times and I really love it. At one point we were in an old vault with no windows and concrete walls, and it was great. We all had the same taste in music so we just cranked it up and let the sales guys outside do their thing and they left us alone.
In another case I was in a room with 8 people arranged into 2 "pods". We all worked on similar projects and would often turn to each other to get help, show something off, etc. I got sick more often that year (I think the ventilation in that room was bad) but we were very productive and I really enjoyed working there.
