If you are serious about designing this netwoek and designing ir correctly for scalability and functionality, pick up a good network design book.
My reccomendation is Top Down Network Design, by Priscilla Openheimer. U have two copies one at home and one at the office, I refer to this tome quite often. Great book, excellent methodology.

There are around 200-300 workstations in 2 storey each. Is it advisable to use Ethernet to link them up. As for the other storey it is for admin purpose. The distance is around 150m between the further storey. However it is possible to put a switch/router at the middle for interconnect.
