nlk - can you set up an ideabook, browse through Houzz rooms and save the ones that you like the most to your ideabook - call it apartment inspiration. Then post a floor plan and we will review what you love and you will have some pictures to help guide you. TanCalGal is right but the scale of what will work in your rooms will depend on their size and how you will use them. Congrats!

Click on the link and you'll find a whole lot of plans for 2000 sq ft houses. Then click on any plans that interest you to find out more. It's impossible for a stranger to come up with a random design that would be good for you, but if you find a starting point with a plan you like you could ask specific questions about it, and someone might be able to help. https://www.google.co.za/search?q=house+plans+2000+sq+ft&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=F7VTU4e7G8uU7Qbs74HYBw&ved=0CDEQsAQ&biw=770&bih=460

Start with a simple pencil sketch of the lot with the home floor plan. Compile photos of rooms that you like using an Ideabook here on Houzz to share with design professionals. Research architects to find a good match to fit your needs. Architects have the incite to help you select the construction professional that should also be a good match. Plan, plan and then plan more! Changes during construction are usually costly. Hope this helps! ClearLED.biz
