Dunno about this. My desk is in my bedroom, and I've worked from there for years. I worked a full-time job there, I wrote a book there, I write my open-source projects there, etc. I also get out of the house as much as I want to. (And I don't need to be "reminded" that the kitchen is where food is. If I'm hungry, I'll go find something to eat. Basic human instinct...)

I work at an office now, but I basically look at it as a time to socialize. For getting Real Work done, I still prefer my desk in my bedroom. (But actually, my desk in the office is quite nice too... when everyone else is working from home.)
