I may be biased but I think that the complexity of what your trying to do would justify using an architect. Architects will be able to help you achieve a quality design that you’ll be proud of while adhering to local codes and zoning regulations. You may have some structural challenges that they can help you with as well.

I watched an episode of Hometime today where they were installing ceramic tile on the floor. They spent the entire half-hour program going into detail of each step of the way. I’ve seen that with other kinds of work too, but never with electrical. On any given program where the project involves any electrical work, they never spend more than 5 minutes describing it, and they only give an overview of what needs to be done — not how to actually do it.

Liability. Giving someone a little bit of information about electricity can be fatal. Electrical work is not something that can be learned from watching a 30 minute TV show. In addition, most states require that electrical work done on property other than your own home be done by a qualified electrician. Sometimes, they will show them installing light fixtures, but all of the preliminary wiring has been done to the point that the finish is as close to idiot-proof as you can get. Hope this helps.
