So I'm having a bit of an issue with the layout of my herp room.

This is an old picture as I've reorganized a few times since the picture and added a glass tank. Even here the "corner" leaves an awkward space between the cage and the couch. I tried having a live plant in the corner but despite what I was told it didn't do well with the lighting it received so thinking of redoing it yet again and trying a different one. The problem becomes with 2' deep cages becomes a dead space 2x2 in the corner.

Any tips on maximizing space in this room? It's roughly 9x10. The reclining loveseat isn't the best use of space but I had it when I moved here and it didn't fit in my living room. It's very comfy with a nice beverage and just sit and watch. I am usually pretty good with 3d tetris and fitting things together but so far haven't come up with a good way of dealing with the corners and not having a dead space on the adjacent wall.

I see the problem, need wall to ceiling stacks of cages.

Build a custom corner display

So moved the room around and moved a plant from the hallway into the corner. Sorry about the lighting, bit hard with a cell phone with the sun out. I moved it back this way to see how it goes. Seems my boa and bp were bit more open as they feel to be in the shade. I know the walls seem bare I have some small picture frames on one wall but the other wall is blank but I keep moving tanks so am holding off buying something.

See...no dilemma. You put your big boy pants on and took care of it.

A+ from the mod team! *thumbs up*

Wow the WHOLE team. I feel so honoured lol. I'm happy with the result. I'm sure things will change once my carpet needs a bigger home but for now I'm happy with this layout. gives me the best view off all my cages.

@madandchz thanks

It does look really good. Gives you a cool way to view everyone at the same time. I like it!
