Mission Statement

Hello all,

The purpose of this blog would be to document the creation of a home DIY studio me and some friends are working on. Things will start out slow but you should hopefully see progression along the way. The delay will mainly be because of lack of funds :)

The location is my room of course. My room is actually a addition on the apartment me and my family rent. The apartment is listed as a 2 bedroom with an extra room (family room) However there is 3 of us so I was able to obtain this room as-my room. The room measures 27ftx13ftx91in. It is off the kitchen, so farthest from the other rooms, the rest of the apartment consists of hardwood floors with flat ceilings.

My main concern is sound isolation/absorption. The room is huge so I plan to split it in half with a wardrobe and custom wall with door. The room used to be a patio and the walls aren't the best as far as insulation (gets cold in here) The windows are old single pane and above my head is someones deck (wood on the floor, or on my head)

The plan in short is to make the sound stay in the room, not to worried about outside sounds. The room is going to be completely sealed, there is going to be two windows total in the room with plugs in them, as well as a plug on the door. The plugs are going to consist of sheet rock/soundboard/sheet rock and have handles on them for taking them in/out.

Ventilation will be covered by just removing a plug when it gets too hot/someone farts.

First few Phase's that you will are just going to be small as I am working on paying off a few bills :( They will be focused more to making the room nicer. I also still need to buy couches!

Enjoy!
