Station utilities
#2
I'm probably not the benchmark for map artistry, but I generally do things in this order:
- Lay out general room amenities, including disposal chutes
- Add APC wherever it "makes sense"
- Introduce data terminals and wiring
- Add pipes, slightly shuffling room contents if necessary to ensure pipe flow

Generally, when possible, I route disposal pipes through maintenance. Mail pipes, on the other hand, often end up going directly through main hallways for a greater deal of their span because A) they're not quite as crucial of a system to keep intact through explosions, B) the nature of the mail loop means routing through maintenance could inflict a heavy cost in package travel time and overall amount of pipe space required.
