Since we started the remodel, her room looks like this.
Walls:

The amount of insulation you see is the amount of insulation we have. In other words, absolutely none. Not one tiny iota of insulation. Therefore, we are now the proud owners of seven rolls of insulation all primed to go into these walls. We also bought several great cans of Great Stuff to fill the huge amounts of gaps in the walls. The construction looks very solid and straight so that is nice to see but I can't wait to see what insulation is going to do to the temperature and noise in her room.
Ceiling:

We will be drywalling the walls and ceiling. The ceiling was dropped just enough to run the electrical wires. They could have easily been run through the attic but they chose to fur down the ceiling enough to run them and then put up the cardboard acoustical panels. They ruined the plaster ceiling in the process. We would much prefer to have kept and repaired the plaster. The complete lack of insulation and the ruined ceiling made that impossible.
