Can't wait to see what your area looks like, Shawn.
The main thing I'd do is add a vapor barrier so I could keep my humidity in.
Plastic behind the drywall would do. If the space is in the basement where the walls are cold you could have some serious condensation issues if you don't plan for it.

This is gonna be fun, I can tell.

Hey Scott,

Main walls (outside walls are all sealed) the front wall is not built as yet but I was planning on insulating and vapor barrier anyway (insulation just to prevent large temp swings not that I ever have any) and the vapor barrier to keep the RH in. I am hoping that paneling in spanish cedar will help prevent any condensation issues.

I have not thought on the floor yet but I am thinking of just using rubberized flooring.

I have started a rough up on a 3D modeling software, more for conceptual than actual measured. I will do the actual on paper (I am old school that way)

I wouldn't mind your input on drawers Mr Shilala, design thoughts hardware etc, that goes for all you handy inmates not just Scott.
