I wasn't going to say it, but I will...
How can you know your floor structure isn't already overloaded? Have you checked with a structural engineer to see if the floor will hold the extra weight?
I wouldn't meddle with things like this - what if the whole floor suddenly gives way?
And for that matter, if you did build a "box" just big enough for a singer - where are they supposed to get their air from? It would get pretty stuffy in there for a box just big enough for a person and a mic.
I am currently designing a studio myself, (Avare and Weasel have both helped me out). Their advice is worth gold. There is a lot more to sound isolation than you might think. Do your research and read books. Listen to these guys...its going to save you a wack of money and frustration. I know because I was in the same boat as you once - I built a small project studio, and I wasted tons of money and got next to nothing results.
Get the book: "Home Studio - Build it like the Pros" by Rod Gervais ...it's a must.
Just my 2 cents
