100% Wooden covered room good for studio?
Hello,
Please let me know if this room can be used as a studio (walls, ceiling, floor 100% covered in wood which is the same as the one used in yachts.
*I can't seem to upload the photos here so here they are:

I can build 4 super chunks for the corners and put absorbers in the needed locations(early reflections etc.) but I am wondering if this type of room can be used as a studio, what is the effect of the wood, is it good or not?
Looks like the diffusors section is pretty much covered

Please let me know as I have to make a decision on this soon..
Thank you very much for your help!

It will be about as reflective as any other hard surface, like drywall or concrete. There is no "tune" from the wood.
