If my memory of math is correct it should be around 768 square feet total. But I'm not mathematically inclined in any way, I just like testing to see how much of my schooling I remember at any given moment.
I got 748 sq feet. Divide the drawing into four section, three rectangles and one triangle. Living room 12*11.5 = 138 sq ft, Bath/Kitchen 8*13 = 104 sq ft, the Middle with corridor (33-11.5+13)*(18-8) = 355 sq ft and the Bedroom sliver (33-11.5+13)*(12-10+6.5)/2 ~ 151 ft. Total 748 sq ft.
768 sq ft might be right because of rounding in the diagram to the nearest six inches.
Declaring a room, a home office might not be worth the extra effort.

The triangle doesn't have a height of 35.5 though, that's the hypotenuse so taking 33 + 13 - 11.5 would give you the height. (geometry was never my strong point, but I think that's correct)
I come up with 734.125 Wildly less than everyone else, I know. I'm not great with math, but I'm good with technical illustrations, so there is a PDF showing how I got that number, posted here.
You can claim tax reductions for using a bedroom as an office? I can't claim square yardage for the sewing space as it's an integral part of the house, and not wholly dedicated to work. However, if I could work it out, I'd be allowed something for heat, light, and cleaning! As I never get close to the basic allowance anyway, it's academic.
I can claim some of the expenses since it's a dedicated space for office, costume construction (for profit and for necessary work clothes) and rehearsal space. That's why I got a 2 bedroom.
Three sections here. 1. Triangle on the left. Base of the triangle is 6.5 ft. Length of the triangle is 34.5 (33+13-11.5) feet. Exact area of the triangle is 112.125 sq. ft. 2. Big rectangle in the middle - 12' wide all the way down for (33 + 13) feet. Exact area of big triangle is 552 sq. ft. 3. Small rectangle on the right - (18-12) feet wide for 13 feet. Exact area of the small rectangle is 78 sq. ft. Total area is 112.125 + 552 + 78 or 742.125 sq. ft. about halfway between the 733 and 748 that was estimated. This is probably due to rounding in the measurements.

(I have to estimate square footage of the whole place and then the back bedroom to take a home office tax deduction)

Bedroom looks like it is about 12x10', am I correct?

1. Triangle on the left. Base of the triangle is 6.5 ft. Length of the triangle is 34.5 (33+13-11.5) feet.
Exact area of the triangle is 112.125 sq. ft.
2. Big rectangle in the middle - 12' wide all the way down for (33 + 13) feet.
Exact area of big triangle is 552 sq. ft.
3. Small rectangle on the right - (18-12) feet wide for 13 feet.
Exact area of the small rectangle is 78 sq. ft.
Total area is 112.125 + 552 + 78 or 742.125 sq. ft. about halfway between the 733 and 748 that was estimated. This is probably due to rounding in the measurements.
