I have a room in my basement, 24'-8" x 16' + 12' x 7' that I will be converting into a laundry room and pool room. I'll post pictures and comments here as I progress. For starters, the room looks like this now...

Model renderings. I was inspired by dsoriano's buildouts in his pool room, and I used them as a design feature to cover up the gas lines and breaker box. The panel in front of the breaker box will be removable, or a door. The boards on the ceiling will be either painted pine/plywood/MDF and some will be removable to get at the pipes if needbe. The red line is the minimum cue clearance area (58" cue, + 4" backstroke on 100" by 50" slate). The couch is in the way a little, but it is non negotiable, says the wife. TV will go in the corner, and there will be 4 sconces. I used 3dsmax + mentalray to render so I can see the true lighting effects. More details to come, this is just a model to see how things will fit and look.

Photosphere of the room. There's a few ways to get this to work interactively (google+ views, PTViewer server-side... I'll figure it out later.) Its cool when you can look around the room with the mouse.

Just a thought or 2 from a master plumber....

>anywhere you have a tiolet, you must have a hand wash sink.<<<especially if this is being inspected.

>put a lint trap on the discharge pipe for the clothes washer drain.....or down the road you will be having a flooded floor! especially when using a pump system. Also you might want to invest in an automatic shut off for the laundry water feeds tied into an overflow detector<<<<cheap insurance IMO.

>keep the main sewer line cleanout fitting accessable. Nothing worse then having to cut a bunch of holes "searching" for a fitting someone "just knew" was there :)

and above all.....take a bunch of pics of all utilities with point of reference for down the road.

have fun,

G.
