My setup looks like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chestnykh/3525052710/sizes/o/

There's a project window with code editor on the left, console on the right, and documentation on another space. I rarely use more than one editor window.

Frequently used shortcuts for navigation:

  Cmd+Opt+Up — toggle between .h/.m,
  Cmd+Opt+Left/Right — go to previous/next opened file,
  ^2 — quickly jump to methods,
  Cmd+0 — navigate the project tree.
I rarely use Debugger (which is a separate window in my setup) as I prefer logging to console for debugging.

Finally, Xcode has different layouts: Default, All-In-One, and Condensed (see General Preferences, I use Default).

My wish: move Documentation to an external app (sometimes I press Cmd+Tab instead of Cmd+` to switch to Xcode from Documentation).
