A maxim I think we all should live by is this: if you have space for O scale, build in HO. Whatever scale you think can work, go one smaller and you'll find that everything fits fo much more comfortably. I work in N-scale, but my track plan could probably be executed as-is in HO scale; this gives me broad curves, long sidings, and the ability to run trains of plausible lengths. If you find or come up with a decent O-scale layout plan, I would say just take that and build it in HO scale, and maybe feel free to add a passing siding or team track here and there to use up some of the leftover space, but fill up most of that extra space with uncompressed scenery.
