Dadoo8203122 Oct 2016 20:23Hello everyone, first of all, let me briefly introduce myself:
My name is Daniel, and along with my two best friends, we are starting a company early next week that combines music production, event technology, and event management.
There is currently an opportunity that requires some remodeling and therefore your help.
In the basement of the house we live in, there is still a pool, which is operational but has never been used.
Since we are currently looking for a studio, we came up with the idea to convert the pool area into a studio.
The only unused room is the pool room.
We are thinking about a "room in room" concept, where we would build a structure of approximately 5 x 3.5 x 2.5 meters (16 x 11.5 x 8 feet) inside the emptied pool, with stairs leading to a roughly 3 square meter (32 square feet) "anteroom" in front of the studio.
Covering the pool would seem to us a waste of space, as we do not need such a large studio.
The space is sufficient and could be climate controlled using the already existing supply and exhaust air ducts in the ceiling of the room.
On top of this construction, there should be a sort of "chill area" where one can move around with a slightly crouched posture.
Our idea was to consult an interior designer and a carpenter to build and install the framework. All interior finishing work (insulation, carpet) we would handle ourselves.
For electrical installations, of course, we would also hire a professional.
Is this project even feasible? Does anyone have experience with similar projects?
Many thanks in advance for your advice.

Dadoo8203122 Oct 2016 20:46A kind of room with four walls, a roof, and a door is planned to be built in the recessed pool area, extending about half a meter (1.5 feet) above the pool edge and providing an interior height of approximately 2m (6.5 feet). Imagine a small wooden house where you can only see the front with the door and about 50cm (20 inches) of the sides.
However, it will only cover the width, not the entire length of the pool, since there will be a "forecourt" of about 1m (3 feet) long and 3.5m (11.5 feet) wide in front for the stairs and possibly one or two chairs.

And since the box, with a height of 2.50 meters (8 ft 2 in), still leaves some space at the top, this area up to the very low ceiling is intended to be used as a chill-out spot.
Yes, great, go ahead. If it doesn’t work or feels uncomfortable, you can always take everything down again and deal with the leftover wood as usual: cover the pool 😉
Best regards

How do you enter or exit the house, and why is that needed? There are two entrances: one through the house on the right side, and a second direct entrance at the back of the house through another door.

Regards Exactly! However, no one wants to debate the practicality of this project here, but rather to discuss whether it is feasible and possibly what costs might be involved.
Thank you 🙂
