12x12 is a pretty nice size. Our stalls are 15' deep since that is where the barn structure works and vary from 9 to 15 feet wide. Probably would not want to go any less than 9' in any dimension unless stall was intended for a pony or very small horse.
Ventilation can be open doors, windows, leaky walls, etc. I do not advocate a very tight environment for the horses. Seems like diseases are more prevalent the more we try to enforce our human comfort criteria on them.
Floor can be optimized a little on how you intend to bed or what exists where you intend to place stalls. Ours was excavated to backfill with gravel for drainage and then topped with "Stable Mix" Asphalt (basically larger aggregate), which allows liquids/urine to drain into the base. For awhile we had mats on top of this, but have found stalls stay much nicer and we use less bedding without the mats.
Just our experience, Location here is South Sentral PA so local customs/conditions may have some impact as well.
