Any decent room planners on here need some advice?

Need some one with technical architectural knowledge

Any more detail ? what you after knowing ?

Just a rough idea of how to maximise space for three bedrooms on one floor 700 sq-feet area with en suites to each bedroom.
I had an idea to infringe upon living room space to expand bedroom area thinking three bedrooms would be roughly 12ft x 12ft bathroom not sure how small I can get away with as they would be wet rooms without baths just shower enclosures a toilet and basin?   
The rest of the living space would be a narrow corridor leading to a veranda and lift or stairs?
TBF I have no idea how to translate to a drawing?

Yeah I roughly get what you mean, wet rooms like that can be made surprisingly small and not feel too cramped. best bet is put up a diagram of the overall dimensions and shape etc just the outline if you know what I mean

[clipperjay]

I can take a picture of the kids drawing of the floor but its real bad LOL!
My issues is light originally I wanted the bathrooms at the back of the bedrooms, but cant due to light not getting into the middle room.
I'll post up a rough piccy of what I had in mind are you in the business clancy?

ever thought about 2 rooms sharing an ensuite?? iv worked on a few houses like that and it works suprisingly well

I would, but this is for business rather than domestic purposes, good idea though. any structural changes I make internally at some point will be converted back to a stock living space, but on a new build I'm considering will be for individual bedroom space, plus that's just the middle floor the top floor will have a similar design with flat tiled roof top access.

This ideal for two bedrooms as the first room will have a bit more space!

Yeah post up a rough floor plan and ill see if I have any good ideas for you.  sharing an en suite as said is a great idea if it will work in your situation

you said about light not getting to one area, depending on the building or layout you could use light tunnels to the roof, cheap and very effective

is this a renovation to rent/sell or your own house ?

yeah I've been doing this for years, dad owns a construction company and im studying as a civil engineer at the minute so hopefully can help you a bit

Cool Clancy here is a picture of the build not that long but this was domestic a living room space the kitchen and bathroom are located on either side. As this will be basically a floor with just bedrooms I can leave kitchen off and use it for bedroom space. In one of the pictures the bathroom is at the front on the entrance and the bedroom is near the back where the window gives good light TBF the bathroom can be in the dark as its not uncommon for just a light to be turned on?  I'll do my best with the drawing but it will look rough mate!




This is where the living room would be but I want more bedroom space and just a narrow corridor roughly about half of where the patio metal doors are is where the bedroom would come out to!

Best I can do logistically The bathroom needs to be near a side wall of the house for waste management reasons other wise I'll have large waste pipes going through all floors where if they are routed outside of the building which is the way its done over there!

just done a very rough drawing i kinda had an educated guess at the size of the bathroom (think it needs to be smaller  )
