Can i make this work?

I have planned this out so its suits the way I work but can i make it work acousticly? Proposed ceiling hight is 3.5mtrs.

Or does anyone have any cool ideas I could add before I go to the bank?
Of course I will be getting it properly engineered before I build but thought if I get a general idea now it saves me on the hourly rate later.
Any help is much appreciated

That mostly looks fine, but having those angled walls in the rear of the upper CR is a bad good idea. Leave the corners square and apply plenty of bass traps. Rectangle rooms have 12 corners, not just 4. So treat all of those corners if possible.

Thanks Ethan,

I was thinking of starting the ceiling at 3mtrs on the front door side and pitching it to 4mts on the control room side. Good or bad idea?

Angled ceilings can be useful if they're very high. But in a room that size I'd just make the ceiling as high as possible everywhere.
