Some close friends of mine formed a similar partnership for a bit. Fresh outta college, so that'd change things a fair bit.
A problem that arose out of that was that the developers were super busy all the frikkin time, and the designers had finished scanning baking trays and photographing tv screens within a day. So they sat there goofing off while the developers were stressing out to get it done.. but then asked for an equal share.
It was also the developers who got all the clients. They just seem to be more in demand. And have a much bigger role, timewise at least. There were also smaller jobs that came in the just required developers' skills.
So a few years later, a couple of them started a new, similar thing.. but they just shared studio space and did their own thing, but with a serious amount of helping each other out. So collaboration was on a project-by-project basis, and didn't always include everyone.
As long as this is what's expected by/of everyone, it should be cool.
