Interesting, necessary features in a family home

Despite how much I love antiques, I want a very modern home or penthouse. I want large spacious rooms with floor to cieling windows and lots of natural light. White walls and wooden floors...very large, studio-like open floorplan

So thats the basics of the house, here are my requirements.

1-Music/Library Room --the focal room of the house. I need a place to store a few thousand CDs, Music Scores, and my Books. This room will also house my extensive instrument collection including climate controlled display cases for my Stradivari violins, and upright stands for my basses and viola da gambas I want a single book case that lines the walls holding CDs, books, and music manuscripts. On top of the cases I want the busts of all my favorite composers. In the center of the room laying back to back I want a beautifully ornate antique Harpsichord, backed by another antique Fortepiano. The center of the room will also serve as a rehearsal area for a group of up to 10 musicians.

2-I need a top of the line sound system connected through the entire house with the central unit located in the Music Room. I want to be able to put on a favorite CD and hear it in high quality throughout the house.

3-I want a large family room with a nice comfy couch, good TV etc...Large ceilings...

4-I want my bedroom to be on a upper level loft that overlooks the family room.

5-I want an absolutely spotless garage/showroom for 4 cars or so. Floored in light marble, I want it large enough to fully open car doors etc. I want to put a couch in there and make it as comfortable as possible so I can sit next to my collection (F40, 355 GTS, 330 GTC, Porsche 356 speedster) and just admire their beauty.

6-Id like a nice pool/jacuzzi on a big raised deck that overlooks some sort of nice view...complete with a BBQ area as well.

7-Ferrari room I want a boat load of models, posters, and any other sort of Ferrari or exotic car related collectibles to be stored in a room of their
