Source for good value architecture to refurb 70's lake bungalow

Hi,
I am looking for a clever way of getting architectural talent to refurb a 70's bungalow. I went with the old adage location x3 and as a result my budget needs to be carefully spent on the refurb of the house. I am happy enough that I can get a full building survey, CAD drawings, levels etc from an engineer who is a cousin of mine. I was thinking of some clever ways to get an architect to work with me;
- Elance.com
- Getting an architect student to do a project on it over summer
- Getting an architect practicing to do it as a side line
- Create some sort of competition and get people to pitch for it for a set price (outside of elance)
I've looked at fantastic st-architects for new build sites I considered but doing a refurb is a different animal. I'm happy enough to get an interior designer to do the inside and I sort of thought €2500 would go along way with an interior designer. It's not a major rebuild but I want to change the garage to an office/utility. I want to change windows, doors, paint, selected rendering, facia, soffit and paint the tiles on the roof. What would others plan to spend to try get a clever architect solution?
Thanks,
William
