I need an 8-bedroom, 8 bathroom double/triple storey house, extension of an old house and a wall fencing. I'm making a research to ensure that I get something that is satisfying & affordable at the same time, for this reason would appreciate assistance from a professional that is good in architectural communications. Below I've attached an image of the design that I want for the professional to know what he/she will be dealing with. I'll be remodelling & renovating my old house to match it up with the new double storey house.
