It's tough to make a 2x4 look good without a significant tooling investment.

My dad just put a storage room (8x14 maybe) in his basement. He ended up
using plastic shelving units (probably made by someone like Rubbermaid). He
has a full woodworking shop 20 feet from the storage room, he is retired,
and he still opted to buy rather than build.

I doubt that there is much economy in what you want.

Really quick & dirty, disposable with raw 2x4's maybe.
Upscale, custom DIY built-in - sure.
Inexpensive, decent looking, movable... go to wallmart/cosco/lowes.

Hello,
First off, I am a bit of a novice at woodworking. I have a large
closet 7'x12' with 8 foot celings that I would like to put some
shelving in. I am looking for some recommendations and a site with
some plans on how to build it. Here is what I would like idealy and I
am open for suggestions or other options as well:
-looks nice. If it were 2x4 shelves some way to dress up the 2x4s
-I don't want them secured to the walls as this will be temporary
storage and would like to move the shelves to the garage or another
part of the house when this room is complete. So easy to move
-resonably priced
-able to be built by a novice
-each shelf could contain about 100lbs

Any suggestions or places i could look with some good shelving plans?
Thanks for the help.
