We are going to divide a space of approximately 600 sqm into rooms of 15-20 sqm. We want to offer the possibility of moving in while the construction work is ongoing. The challenge that arises, however, is "keeping clean" in a smart way. It is primarily the gypsum dust that we are concerned about.

Do you have any tips or suggestions on smart ways to keep a construction site clean?

How will you meet the requirements for electrical safety, fire separation, sanitation, ventilation, and heating during that time?
Possibly you can divide it into a couple of larger stages, but one room at a time doesn't sound good.
 
It sounds like a project requiring a building permit. In that case, one cannot move in before there is a final certificate for the building permit; the construction penalty fee for "early move-in" is about 22,000 per apartment. But as mentioned, phasing can solve that part.

Dust spread can be avoided if the entire area with ongoing work is enclosed in plastic, and preferably put under negative pressure with fans. This method is used in asbestos cleaning.

In the housing cooperative where I was the chairman many years ago, this method was used during a pipeline replacement. The demolition of existing bathrooms was performed by asbestos cleaners, despite there being no asbestos. They brought in a vacuum hose with a diameter of about 50 cm and ground everything down with jackhammers to a size that could be vacuumed out, including the toilet, sink, etc. Outside on the street stood the "vacuum" that took up an entire truck.

Each bathroom was demolished in 2-3 hours. Not a speck of dust in the apartment or stairwell. The entire construction maintained a pace of one finished bathroom every 4 hours for 13 months.

We are building hobby rooms...the tenants are not particularly picky. It involves about 5 room phases...this means a construction time of about 5-6 months.

No. Spaces for music performers.
