When we think about designing our dream home, we don’t think of having a thousand roommates in the same room with no doors or walls.

But what happens when there is no office at all? This is the reality for Jason Fried, Founder and CEO of Basecamp, and Matt Mullenweg, Founder and CEO of Automattic (makers of WordPress), who both run teams that are 100% distributed across six continents and many time zones.
