My new trophy room start

[Rare Breed]

I am enclosing my 300 square foot porch to a trophy room/ office. Here is the start. I will keep everyone posted from the start to the finish

Step 1 is enclosing outside identical to siding since porch was already under roof.
Step 2 is only having one beautiful arched door versus current two going out to patio.
Step 3 is matching inner house flooring exactly which is a natural oak.
Step 4. is putting in a small closet to give me the option of having a legal bedroom even though it will be my office/trophy/gun room.
Step 5 is placing 3/4 inch plywood on all walls up to cathedral ceiling so I have total placement options for my animals.
Step 6. Sheet rock entire room over plywood
Step 7. I have bought three Africa hanging lights from ceiling

I thought everyone might like to know costs as well for 300 square foot job as follows
1. Builder charging $30,000 to do the work which includes $1,000 floor allowance and all heat and air work with electrical.
2. Arch door $1,500
3. Three Africa lights $1,000
4. $500 for his crew to move my current office into new one plus place all my taxi.
I will post more pictures as the job happens.
