A 4 foot by 4 foot closet is an ideal size to convert.

Are you planning a window in it? If so remember that the glass will reflect the highs very well so be careful how you position the mic. You certainly don't want it behind the mic and close in. Based on the size and location of the glass, that could be a real possibility. If the glass has to be close and behind the mic, a reflection filter would be a good idea.

Wall hangings of heavy fabric such as a decorative quilt and those professionally made foam "egg crate" designs would look cool and absorb enough of the reflected highs to serve the purpose. Place the quilt behind the singer on the wall for the visual looking through the window, it will absorb the reflections as well,,, and the egg crates on the sides.... and also beside the window to cover the sheetrock.

Carpet on the floor acoustic tile ceiling with mini recessed lights.

Again, you don't need to hire a theater contractor to build an effective and nice sounding vocal isolation booth. Keep it simple.
