The layout-room has to share tripple duties. It does not only house the layout, but is also a storage-room, and for the next few years it also has to be a TV-room for our sons.
The middle of the room is now occupied by a large L-shaped coach and a table which makes it impossible (just for now I hope) to build a central peninsula.
We have painted the ceiling (wood panels) and the lower part of the walls white. The upper part of the wall is painted a pale blue sky color. The concrete floor is painted.
We have build shelfes around the room, which support the layout sections.
I recommend doing this before moving stuffs in the room, as we have learned the really hard way how it works when all the stuff and mess are in the way and being able to do only half of the room (at its best) before we had to move things again.
Dimensions
The room is just 2,02 meters high (less than 80 inches). It is four dominos long (16 feet); 4,88 meter, and 2 2/3 dominos wide (3'8''); 3,25 meter.
There is some possibilites to one day build return loops or even a small branchlineterminal in a small room/hallway outside.

Oh my, lessons learned!
I have also made a leasson about NOT moving stuff into the room before entirely finnished.
My back ackes just thinking about it!
Nice layout btw!
Thank you for the comment.
Yes, and it is also better to refurbish the house before moving in.
I say we have had "extreme refurbishing" (ekstrem oppussing) over many years!
