Building a Studio

Best color is GRAY. You can make them appear white simply by blasting the walls with enough light. You can make them appear black simply by having them 1.2EV down in light intensity.

White walls will reflect back light when you won't want stray light altering your lighting setup! Black walls make your clients less cheerful.

was browsing around and wondering if you ever completed the project and have pitures of the set up?

What you will have to watch out for is an Out-building with a footprint of over 30m2 will need planning. 20'x20' comes out at just over 37m2.
16' x 20' will give you just under. The roof line must be under 3m (10') and the building must be constructed from mainly non combustable materials i.e brick/block roof tiles etc

I'm in the building game if youre wondering how i know this, and i'm an Essex boy so just across the water.

If you're gonna go through planning call it a Summer house not a Studio otherwise they might start with the "Are you running a business from home" and you'll be in a whole other ball game, but thats your call

Hope this helps in some small way, if not just ignore it

Be interested to know how your getting on, as i'm in the middle of constructing a LARGE Summer house as we speak!

Take care
