accessory building do's and don'ts?

Would love to hear from people who have built a fully detached accessory building. Very early in process for me (no drawings yet) but so far the plan is two rooms: 13x22 semi-finished garage and 18x22/24 finished recreation room. Square or L-shaped floor plan. Questions for you: if unheated and un-air-conditioned (South-Central Indiana -- just using a portable electric heater and ceiling fans as needed for the 400 sf rec room) what insulation requirements (R-13?). What airflow suggestions? What foundation (floating slab?) and flooring would work best for pool table and exercise equipment? What other advice would you pass forward on your own build? Thanks!
