Hi! I want to renovate an old cottage/garage into an artist's studio🙃. How to draw your ideas into a buildable plan?

The house was built sometime in the 1920s-1930s. The house is two floors and has served as a workers' residence, horse stable, and car garage. The house has a concrete floor without a foundation. No incoming water, nor a toilet. The previous owner took the wood stove. On the upper floor, there are two rooms, one of which has a sloping floor due to cold. I wanted to renovate the lower floor into an open kitchen/living room with a conservatory on the side and the upper floor into a bedroom. How do you design this?

A good start would be pictures of how it looks now and some sketches/drawings of how it is currently connected.

How hard can it be? A good artist manages on their own!

Pictures would have helped!

Crofts from that time are not easy to open up since many of the walls are load-bearing. But as mentioned before, pictures and drawings are needed.
