Get an architect. Not only can he help you with the design but he can help you with the contactor bid selection and for a few extra bucks can stay with you through the entire project to be the go between with you and the builder. Also, when modifications are made during the project, which there will be, an architect is good to have on hand to keep control of cost overruns. The extra cost of an architect will pay off in the long run.
