As a residential architect specializing in the shingle style, I have decided to try and design an architecturally “A+” 2100 (amended to 2721 sqft) square foot house to make available to the masses for a low cost compared to my one off designs for full service fees. The style will be Neo-New England vernacular design; very simple and boxy to save money, analogous to a traditional cape or colonial, but putting a focus on architectural design and material quality rather than traditional fluff.

Updated 1st Floor
Here is the updated 1st floor. Still on the move....currently at 1330 sqft. I feel like its getting closer.
You convinced me that the sacrafices I made for that smaller plan were unacceptable. I will come back to it again...later. For now, I think I need to keep on this path.
ok, but 3 bedrooms in 2700sqft is... lets just say unusual... If that study can be reached from the hall and be a nursery or alt bedroom you have a case for 4 bedrooms which sounds fine.

hmmm, I think you gave up nothing from the smaller plan and gained some. I think it works.
But I still think you should take the lessons from here and turn them back on the smaller plan.
Greg,
Thank you,
