What to do with space?

Hi all,



I am currently working on a potential 6 unit development in Melbourne. Reversed living (living room & kitchen upstairs) 2 bedrooms, 2 toilets. Space is very tight.



Some statistics:



Age Statistics

20 to 39 30%

40 to 59 27%

5 to 19 22%

60+ 13%

0 to 4 7%



Education

Not Attending (Working) 74%

Infants/Primary 9%

Secondary Education 8%

University or other Tertiary Institution 3%

Technical or Further Education 3%



The architect has come back with the same design for all 6 units.



My questions are:



1. Currently there is a separate toilet from the bathroom. Would it be wise to remove the bathtub in the bathroom and replace it with a toilet? Then use that extra space for a walk in wardrobe or potentially have a bigger bathroom or study?

2. Would it make sense to vary the layout of each units?



e.g



- 2 with no bath tubs, but bigger bathrooms or study

- 2 have no bath tubs but have walk in wardrobes

- 2 have bath tubs and separate toilets?



Thanks,



Derrick
