This is not an attempt at subliminal antisemitism; I swear.
I have a fondness for a very efficient T-shaped 3/4 bathroom arrangement, but it's tricky to use without creating dead space. Previously, I came up with a dual apartment utilizing it and now I have this quadruple one as well. Since this was about the bathrooms, I didn't bother to lay out any of the rest of the units, and their size could obviously be varied (the ones shown are 12' by 24'). The practicality of having so many different entrances would be highly dependent on the location. All the bathrooms being together would make plumbing them quite a bit easier, although some sound proofing would be called for.
On a related note, this layout has all its components digitized into 2.25" squares (so each pixel is 2.25"). I believe this is accurate enough for practical layouts, while keeping the resolution as coarse as possible to reduce the total number of possible placements. Wall thickness is the limiting factor, or else a 6" grid might be employed. A 4.5" grid (the thickness of most interior walls) wouldn't match up well with some appliances. Once an arrangement is arrived at, the small differences from the true measurements can be easily accounted for. This will be the same approach for the automatic floor plan generator I'm developing.
