There are tons of magazines with blue prints in them; most issues feature a certain type: cabins and small homes; cottages and 2000 sf+
You'll find floor plans and drawings for a particular square footage.
For Baja, orient them for morning sun and plan windows for breezes. I've found them in book stores, but probably at libraries too, and maybe Home Depot.
