Loft porn cures flu symptoms?

Financing came through Friday - huzzah!  Waiting on the estoppel but that sounds like it's coming today at some point so, once I can review, it will be time to lift conditions. Once I can do that, I'm going to book a time to get in and take measurements and take some photos.  I'd like to do my space planning before the move so the movers can just place the furniture where it should go verses me being a crazy person dragging everything into different seating configurations for hours on end.

In other news, I have the start of a flu.  Looking at loft porn is making me feel better.

Trying to figure out something inexpensive for book shelves and additional storage.  Every time I buy a place, the first thing I do is build book shelves...  For now, they'll be in piles on the desk and floor.  I might be breaking out ye olde reclaimed closet doors from Restore solution for the time being.  Actually work pretty good for shelving and painted out white they look quite nice.  I'm thinking oversize cubes and running them under both massive windows in the living and dining rooms.  Hmm...

Also, I will have no closet.  There's no closed storage, or really any storage at all, in the entire place.  Instead of losing floor space to put in a closet (also I'm cheap and don't want to have to pay for walls, etc), I'm thinking about just doing something wall-mounted.  Which means my clothes will always be on display.  So, I'll either always have everything hung nicely.  Or my bedroom will look like a giant laundry explosion.
