Myriad_Rocker, 4 November 2009Well, I've gone back and forth with my builder on this. I've gone from a 1,400 sq ft space down to a 21x22 space because me and my wife are deathly afraid that the…
cadesignr, 6 November 2009Hello Myraid. Back to square one huh? Man, do I understand. And people wonder why it takes so long to build personal studios in personal spaces. Its not like planning a…
Myriad_Rocker, 6 November 2009fitZ! I didn't recognize you with the different user name! How are you? The door is wherever it needs to be, really. That current SketchUp is at 21x22. I'm thinking TWO…
cadesignr, 6 November 2009Myraid, is your house already designed, to the point you could post a few elevations? I mean, do you have more than just a floor plan. What I'm getting at is...I'd like…
cadesignr, 6 November 2009OH!! Seperate building huh? Well, thats a whole nuther animal. :mrgreen: Cool. Lets get on with it then. :mrgreen: Hmmm, since this is still the garage(no additional…
cadesignr, 6 November 2009Myriad, that is EXACTLY why I inserted items to give it scale. When you have no "human scale", there is nothing to compare it with. And most of the time, the imagination…
Myriad_Rocker, 6 November 2009Yeah...I see what you're saying... :( And it's not a package deal. I can do what I want on the studio size. I'm limited by what the bank appraisal is going to say vs how…
Myriad_Rocker, 6 November 2009Alternatively, I could consider doing two rooms, about 17 in length by 14 in width with 9' ceiling heights. This would give me something close to the 1:1.14:1.39…
cadesignr, 7 November 2009Well its all done. er..at least the control room is. External image, not preserved — original: http://httpics.com//is.php?i=937&img=Myriad_Studio_B.jpg External image,…
cadesignr, 9 November 2009quote] fitz, care to comment on my idea of having those two 17x14 rooms? Then treat those appropriately...?[/quote] Sure, as soon as I look at a few things. Maybe…

cadesignr, 11 November 2009Yea, but as usual everything is behind schedule. :roll: Painters are busy as I type. Finish carpenters are still installing doors and trim. Some equipment arrived, and…
Myriad_Rocker, 11 November 2009Well, I'm off to see my builder. This is what I'm taking with me...along with several notes. I figure that these are pretty close to good room dimensions. Between…
Myriad_Rocker, 12 November 20091" is decent from what I gather...better than nothing, is it not? I wouldn't say I could whack it up in a weekend. There's a bit more that's going into it than my…
lilith_envy, 12 November 2009thank you for explaining. is " an inch or a foot? 10cm is good. :D 1) So the 1st (outer) timber is only holding the the insulation in place. there are simpler fastening…
Myriad_Rocker, 12 November 2009I'll visit with my builder on what he thinks on the outer leaf where the brick wall is. If he can just slap up some OSB or something there and tack up some insulation,…
Myriad_Rocker, 13 November 2009Wish I could. Don't really know how to be honest. Is it as simple as just making the entry points? Cause I can do that. I just don't know how to really draw a door, so…
Myriad_Rocker, 18 November 2009Honestly, I'm starting to wonder if all this headache is worth it for a project studio. I'm considering just having standard construction done but just double up on the…

Myriad_Rocker, 20 November 2009Well, I got the estimate from the builder. I also have a meeting with him this afternoon around the lunch hour. The price difference between staggered stud plate and…
Myriad_Rocker, 3 December 2009Well, final plans are in to the bank for appraisal. There were some changes but no huge deal. The important things are covered (I think). I have two legs of…
Myriad_Rocker, 19 January 2010Not that there are any here that are reading my thread and waiting on a reply on the edge of their seats, but...here's an update for what it's worth. I've basically been…
Myriad_Rocker, 22 January 2010I've proposed the following to my builder in an effort to cut down on the costs of this. If you've read my previous posts, you'll know that I'm pretty stressed about…
xSpace, 23 January 2010A couple of things. I would take away from the entry area and add it to the vocal booth. The booth as it is diagrammed is square and will produce a bad sound for…
Myriad_Rocker, 23 January 2010John, I really do appreciate it. The problem with angled walls, as I understand it from my builder, is that the cost goes up because of the labor involved. But I'll…
xSpace, 23 January 2010"xSpace, this is the same with decoupled walls. That's how I initially started. But the cost was higher. So then I went staggered stud. And, as I have found out with my…
Myriad_Rocker, 23 January 2010John, what about sound leaking into the house? I'm going to have to attach this bad boy to the house to limit my costs. So you're telling me I only need 1 layer of 5/8"…
Myriad_Rocker, 23 January 2010I did check it out when you posted it. It's scary to think that I'd be responsible for building something like that... :shock: What's wrong with something like this?…
