So this is a bit cheeky but I'm just looking for some advice about how I should arrange my small 2 bedroom flat. I am currently renovating it and have to decide tomorrow between these two layouts. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated :)
From these drawings nether option is any good. But these drawings are not the entire story of a three-dimensional material physical space, so it's hard to say.
Miles, I was fully expecting your terse billing-rate response here... especially given the OP's essential admission of seeking free advice. Have you gone soft? (Not a bad thing, just unexpected.)
Ugh I'm sorry to be so snarky but we *cannot* give you any advice - if we wanted to - with what you've presented here. How high are the ceilings? Are they all the same height? Are there any bulkheads? What are the floor materials? Are there any floor material changes? What are the ceilings? Do any rooms have historic features, maybe pressed tin ceilings or exposed structure? What materials are the walls? Is there any exisitng plumbing that could be utilized? How old is the building? Are there units above and below? How close is the wall outside? Or is it truly a garden? Why are those bits angled? Are there skylights? What do the windows look like and how low are the sills? Why would you not put the living room and kitchen adjacent? Do you really want to walk past both bedrooms with your food to get to the dining area to eat? Or do you intend to have an eat-in kitchen? Is the view of a washing machine down your main hallway a feature, or a detriment? Do you have to have a wall and door to the living room, or could the entire space be lofted? Do you have cats? Children? Roommates?
No one can give you any advice that is of ANY value knowing so little about your project. It's like me calling a doctor and asking for a diagnoses of the pain in my neck. Maybe I have a knife sticking out of it that the doctor can't know from my phone call...

A "bit" cheeky?

it really needs a green roof.
Sorry, don't have time tonight. But I could look it over on Thursday or Friday.

actually, tam6 is a prospective PhD candidate who is studying something i assume is similar to this. these two should get together and talk shop!
do you want a bim model as part of the scope of services offered?
Curt... thanks for making me burst out laughing on a late Tuesday night at the office. That was just golden.
Maybe we should get those C+ math students in on this too. There looks to be some odd angles in there.
Glad to see people are still using etch a sketch.
Well, citizen, apparently that went right over your head. LOL
