I am in the process of renovating a storage room in the basement and need some advice. I want to make the walls stronger to support a shelving system from IKEA/Elfa, so I removed the old veneer-like panel and drywall that were there. The plan is to put up OSB and then new drywall. However, the question is how I should deal with the back wall? The "studs" that are there now are only attached crosswise to the cell plastic. And they are barely attached at all.
We are considering leaving the left wall as it is and painting over it somehow. The floor might be replaced later on, but it's not something we will do now.
All tips are welcome, and please point out if you need more info.
