There are lots here that are giving you advice on specific acoustical treatments, but I would like to recommend a few simple things that are more "normal". One of the big issues with a room like this are the flat perpendicular walls, you get major resonances and waves bouncing back and forth. A big help is just to break things up a bit.

Simple things like putting pictures on the wall. Put some plants around.Not just little tiny ones but you can put in fairly big things like a rubber tree plant, a small ornamental tree etc. Put in a shelf with various art objects. Try and randomize things a little so you don't have perfectly regular structures.

Simple things like this can go a long way towards taming such a stark room. And it makes it look more interesting too!

THEN you can go for specific acoustical treatments to work on specific issues.
