I have no need to do what you are doing but Ubuntu Desktop requires 25GB space (recommended) and Ubuntu Server requires 1.5GB space (recommended) so I would start by installing the server edition.

Next I would install the desktop (not all the apps) onto the server version:

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

Then reboot and run a script to install your bare minimum GUI requirements.
