Fake Plastic Trees

I would really like to build a very small growroom for fun if LEDs ever become a plausible growlight, if they do I will build my own LEDs too.
I have attached an image of a rough sketch I made earlier. Basically it would be a wooden box maybe 1.5 meters long 1 metre deep and maybe 1.5 metres high. I could very easily split the box into three sub-compartments one for the mother one for the clones to veg (root) and 1 for a SoG grow.
Each compartment would have a removable ceiling which I could raise and lower as needed I dont want to invest in a chain to move the light and I want to maximise the reflectivity of the walls, ceilings and floors. This also gives me the ability to place the exact mix of red/blue light needed for each stage.
I would like to grow in soil as I like it and would drop the pots into a false floor so the floor is at the level of the top of the pots again for reflectivity.
I reckon if LEDs become viable I could get away with computer fans (scalable) for ventilation which I would place intake in the lower walls and extractors in the ceilings.
Its a bit of a noddy set up 1 mother and 12 plants in SoG but I would love to play with something like this. I only grow for personal use and I give to friends so I don't mind it being noddy.
Not really posting this to provoke conversation, although if its completely a jack idea let me know (I know we are not there on the LED research yet) or if anyones doing anything similar and can offer help thats fab too.
Anyway all the best
