Treating a Unique Room

So I just moved into a new place. I have a room that will designated as the studio that has some unique features. I was on here a few months ago asking question about my last work space so I have a basic grasp on how I should be treating the room. I have a few questions that hopefully you guys can help me with. First I will give as detailed description of the room as I can. I apologize for the length of this post. I just want to be as thorough as possible to help you guys help me. Thank you in advance.



The general dimensions (floor space) of the room are:



W: 12 ft 6 in

H: 8 ft

L: 21 ft 8 in



On either side, where the side walls meet the ceiling there are square projections that run the length of the walls. The dimensions of the projections are:



W: 1 ft 6.5 in

H: 1 ft 2 in



Below is a link to a picture of what I just described.

On the left side of the room there is a recession that starts 5 ft 4 in from the front wall. The dimensions are:



W: 1 ft 4 in

L: 8 ft 5 in

H: 6 ft 10 in



Below are links to two pictures of what I just described. The first showing where/how it starts from the left side wall and the second showing the entire recession full on.

There are 6 wooden 4.5 in x 6 in beams that span across the ceiling. The first one starts 2 ft 1 in from the front wall with the rest spaced evenly 39 in from each other.

The rear wall (21 ft 8 in from the front wall) consist of two glass panel doors on the right and plain wall in the left. The left side has a small gap in the square projection at the top.

My Plans So Far:



1) Early reflection panels on either side and above the listening space (it doesn’t look like the first wooden beam will be in the way). The panels will be made of 3” thick, 23” by 47” Roxul with 2” of air space behind. From my estimations, it looks like the left side panel will coincide with where the recession starts. I think I will have to have the panel on a stand there.



2) Bass traps in every corner except for where the doors are. They will be from the floor up to the projections. Also a bass trap centered on the corner where the front wall meets the ceiling. The traps will be made of 4” thick, 24" wide Roxul with the fluffy pink stuff stuffed behind them.



3) 2D Diffusers on the ceiling between the 4th and 5th beam and the 5th and 6th beam.





Questions:



1) How do I treat the projections?



2) How should I treat the recession?



3) Should the 2D diffusers span the entire width of the ceiling?



4) Is my room long enough to not worry about the back wall and the glass doors? If not, how should I treat them? I was thinking maybe a 1D diffuser in the back wall at least.



Once again I apologize for the long post. Please feel free to touch on any points/concerns I might have overlooked.
