<p>Steve,</p><p>It seems like you already have a good concept for what you want. All I can tell you is what I would do with the same space.</p><ol><li>I would reserve all the North and East walls from the room entrance to the toliet for storage, workbench, and perhaps an easy chair. That way you have no issues with transversing the room from the entrance door to the toliet.<br /></li><li>I would put a turnback curve on the Northwest wall in the corner next to the toliet. You have about 6 feet there so that would make a nice 30" radius without problem.<br /></li><li>I would put another 30" radius turnback curve between the entrance door and the corner of the room. Right above the 9'8" dimension on your drawing.<br /></li><li>If you want two levels replace either one of these with a helix.<br /></li><li>Connect the two curves around the East, South and West walls.<br /></li><li>You could bump out a peninsula or two along the way for variety.</li></ol><p>That would give you at least 55-60 linear feet of layout per level. Quite enough to keep one occupied for a while.</p><p>Good Luck,<br />-John</p>
