In the dusty recesses of the brain, I seem to recall a study or profile by the BBC, or an opinion by Everest, or some decent reference to cost vs. performance of rooms where a bigger rectangular-floor room always outperformed a more complex (non-90-degree walls) but smaller volume built to the same price-point.

The main thing I remember is that building cubic allows so much savings that the extra volume plus appropriate treatment works out pretty well, and on/under budget.

It is amazing how much less wasted space, time, and materials happen on a job when cuts are all 90 degrees.

A great thing about a recession/depression is that money can go a long way.

A bad thing about a recession/depression is that money is hard to come by.

Cheers.
