Default Wisdom required on partition walls

Hi,

I'm after some conventional wisdom on building timber framed partition
walls. The one I'm going to build will be L-shaped in the corner of a
bedroom to take a sink and hide all the pipework behind it. Size would be
around 0.5m on the long wall and 0.3m on the short wall with height of 2.45m

My questions a

1) What timber to use? Planed untreated?
2) What size should the uprights be? 2" x2"?
3) What size should the cross-pieces (noggins?) be? 2" x 1.5"?
4) What should the centres be for the vertical and horizontal pieces?

Anything else I should know before starting?

Thanks
Charles
