Since your pantry is mostly walking space not pantry, I would push the kitchen back and add the space to the kitchen and make it into a "U" shaped . The most wasted space is the over sized hall that is called a living room, which I would distribute to add a closet to the master, close up the with by adding to the bedroom (11x10) and the bath which will work as a Jack & Jill bath with the extra space

I strongly second One Plan's idea about looking for another architect. If this one is not motivated, all the fame in the world is not going to help. An alternative approach to finding an architect is to find some good contractors who have built things you like. Ask them for architects' names. Make sure they work in your price range. In the meantime, you can find out from your local building department what the set back and height restrictions are. Are you required to build parking areas or garage space, what kind of airspace restrictions do you have for neighbors' views and sunlight, that kind of thing. Often this stuff is on city websites or handouts at the office.

They are right, get a pro to help! Even if you jut pay them for a few hours, its worth it! With that said, instead of making the 10x13 bathroom accessible to guests, why not leave the other one as is, since it is common already and change the 10x13 into study space? Then there is not a bathroom opening up to the kitchen. Also it is larger and will allow for more space. Next owners might make it into a large walk-in pantry. Or if you can put laundry in your unit, you could add that to that room also. Desk could double as folding table. Master bedroom - put the bed on wall that backs to bathroom. Gives you great view of bed from doorway and allows natural walk way to balcony.

My humble opinion is one needs space in the bedroom to walk around, dress or for yoga, stretching, etc. But this is just my opinion, not imposing it. I have a similar size bedroom and am struggling with space, there is a big wardrobe occupying 48x24 space on the floor and a mini Godrej Almirah, which I cannot get rid off for sentimental reasons(!). Plus I have a small readymade computer table. My bed is twin single beds put together and is 60"x72". Space is a big problem, so I liked your Layout 1. Would you consider the TV to be mounted in the bottom right corner? Is it a large screen TV?
