i just revamped my live room as well. it's a little smaller than that size (17x14) and i went with a tight/dry sound. i did choose to go with wood floors so it isn't completely dead. i put 4" 703 bass traps in each corner i could possibly fit into and a few ceiling clouds.

i just finished up last week and i've only recorded drums once. so far i'm liking it a lot better than my old extremely "dead" room, i feel like everything is much more focused and yet still very open. there's really not much of a natural reverb, but the use of room mics adds a lot of body to the drums. i do have a few problems with some parallel walls which i hope to treat soon with some diffusors. i will try to post some sound clips soon.
