I love the flow and I love being able to look out onto everything and this is a great space to sit around, talk with my clients, and ***workshop***.

Explanation:
une idée copiée sur un autre forum:
"Another way that people sometimes use this term is to mean "have a group give suggestions for improving someone's work." For example, in a creative writing class, you might "workshop" someone's poem by having everyone in the class read it and give their comments and suggestions."

également:
"The firm has been keen to continue the work that we’ve started, so the graduate community in Adelaide will further develop our sustainability program as well as workshop an environmental policy for the firm as a whole. So far, we’ve workshopped a draft environmental policy and position statement for the firm and are in the process of turning our program into a booklet to distribute to all the Units."

agree  Tony M: Though as she is talking about a physical space, I think here it just means really 'to hold workshops'

My translation derives from the definition of 'to workshop' below:

tr.v. work·shopped, work·shop·ping, work·shops

To create or revise (a drama or literary work) based on suggestions or criticism from a group of collaborators.
