Me, I mean...bedrooms are all well and good, but I'd rather have an office or a work area or a crafting area (were I like you) or the like, or a private spot to sit and watch telly without others...a library, that sort of thing. I'm big on escaping, lol.
For me a bedroom large enough to hold the bed and a dresser is all I need. My wife has other ideas but then her family was a lot smaller than mine.

Now when it comes to my library/computer lab in the basement, the library has been shrinking as I pick up more ebooks and the pbooks are shipped out. The computer lab has been reduced to a 15U server rack which is now mostly empty due to virtualization and the dark room is long gone. My last pass through the library ending up with half the book shelves being taken out. With the extra time I now have, I have the feeling that only the signed copies will be surviving the next few months. I literally had to bleed for some of the autographs due to Robert Heinlein's support for blood donation and most of them are still meaningful to me.
