title: Trying to figure out what heights the ceiling needs to be to get an average height of 7 feet but maintain the normal height of ceiling at 8 feet
body: <p>I have an attic build I would like to finish with an average height of 7 feet.  Anything less than 7 feet needs to be against the walls but closets need to be at least 7 feet high.  Areas around windows can be as low as 5 feet up to 3 feet out.  Areas close to walls can be as low as 5 feet.  Want as much area as possible at 8 ft.
  Can someone show me how to calculate this?  Total sq/ft of rooms are 698 sq/ft.
