Basically you'd have a router as per normal, and wired into that I'd say 4 or 6 evenly distributed wireless gateways, which are basically points at which the wired system becomes wireless, like the wireless bit of your standard wireless router.
We have a Draytek which covers at least 17x12m, so it might be that you only need two access points but it never hurts to have extra points. 4 should be more than enough.
