I have been thinking in investing in a set of KRK RP6 monitors for when the rooms complete, which have a range of about 49Hz -20kHz, and was contemplating adding their additional sub woofer to cover the full spectrum.
Those monitors go plenty low. You don't need a sub.

What I am wondering is what method of acoustic treatment and bass trapping I should administer. The corners will be dealt with via bass traps, but I'm thinking about what sort of panels I should use for the walls and/or ceiling (which will be flat, I doubt there is an attic).
You want to have the mix spot facing the short wall and start by sitting back 38% of the room length. The following is a layout you can go by for that size room. Put the bed in the back of the room (behind where the sitting area is on the picture).
