I put a description of my darkroom:
http://www.bonavolta.ch/hobby/en/photo/mylab.htm
or in french:
http://www.bonavolta.ch/hobby/fr/photo/mylab.htm
One thing I'll change as soon as possible is the exhaust ventilation: I'll move
it from the ceiling
down to the sink, just behind the trays/processor.
It's also safer to put the electrical sockets somewhat higher than what I did
...
There is a nice book on darkroom building, including very small temporary ones:
_The New Darkroom Handbook - A Complete Guide to the Best Design, Construction,
and Equipment_ by
Joe DeMaio, Robin Worth and Dennis Curtin, published by Focal Press (ISBN
0-240-80260-8)
Good luck,
Claudio Bonavolta
