Yes. The "big quarters" and Ten Forward were another set, and the Bridge / Ready Room / Conference room were elsewhere.
This graphic represents the earlier corridor set from the first season or so, before they changed it to include the cargo / shuttle bay set on the right side. The junior officers quarters were also in here somewhere.

The Junior officer's quarters, like Data's? It was a redress of Kirk's quarters, and is right below the sickbay on the diagram.

I'm not sure what that was... The corridor set never went that far anyway. At most, it went about 3/4 around from Engineering before you hit the big cargo bay doors, and a corridor corner that rarely went anywhere (it usually hit an "end corner" that exited the set, and once had the junior officers set moved there for "The Perfect Mate"). In the fisrt season, I don't think it went that far either.
Note also the older configuation of the sickbay curved wall, which at the time was the bridge-level conference lounge wall with carpet draped over the windows. It was also used once or twice as the opposite wall of the "plain" conference room set on the blueprints, before that room disappeared in the second season. Data's lab eventually showed up on the right side of the diagram, I think, and was also seen as various labs and classrooms.
During the early TOS movies? About the same. The Engineering set was a little closer in.

The Voyager BPs shows the corridor arrangement much closer to what TNG had. There was only one Holodeck-door style door, so that was the shuttlebay, cargo bay, holodeck, etc.
Opposite the Transporter Room on that same corridor was interchangeable sets like Troi's Counseling office, Neela Daran's Stellar Cartography, The "Chase" laboratory, etc.
Wesley's Nanite lab (Medical Lab) was sanwiched in the corner junction between Sickbay and the back of the Transporter.
Data's Lab was another redressing of the Battle Bridge set that also was the JAG Office, the Geology Lab, Enterprise-C bridge, Stargazer Bridge, and originally the Trek IV Enterprise bridge.

Voyager's curved corridors were always funny: a circular arrangment inside a oval shaped saucer.

At least the curves were less severe to reflect the less roundy nature of the ship. In any case, ALL sci-fi ship corridors are curved so you can't see end to end, which give the impression that they go on much longer than they actually do. If you look a the Zocalo set from B5, for example, it was VERY lmited in terms of what you could do with it.

My question is why don't they use blue screens and CGI to make square corridors?

[rant mode!] Because the Voyager crew looked lost on their own ship as it was without the actors having to imagine the set as well.
...and hell, it was scripted that the B5 crew did'nt know half of their own station! Their security chief was unaware if an entire deck that people disappeared into!
