Bigger is usually better - make it big, then trim only as needed to get good ratios.

Like Wihtehouse sez, for a tracking room reflective surfaces counterpoised with boradband absorption as needed to adjust the reverb field strngth is generally most pleasing to the ear.

Once you have a preliminary plan you might want to post it here for some feedback:
