Root cellar in basement instead of outside

We had planned on a root cellar outside on the back bank, but I got to thinking . . . who wants to trek outside through the snow to get to the goods right? So we researched and decided we would just build it into the back corner of our basement, makes sense to me, why go out if we don't have to!
 I was at work when he started and had just the framework up so missed getting those shots
but ere he is putting in the insulation
 insulation panels for the ceiling
taking photo from inside the room, yes he's proud of his work
 installing the light and electrical outlets
 got some paint and painted it dark in there instead of the white drylok that we had already painted on
need to finish wiring and then put up the ceiling insulation
 after he was done I went in and added another coat of paint
just waiting for it to dry, he doesn't think it needs painted, but I do, I will leave the floor alone though
will update as we progress with this project :)
