I would sooner tell someone to proceed building themselves (as their own contractor), but have an architect, then to have a builder/contractor but no architect. A good set of prints that can be followed by any qualified subcontractor. Although I will add that this is a sticky position for an architect to do in Washington State. Many states want to try and make the architect the contractor (prime) if they are too involved in the project - answering questions onsite with the subs. The architect needs to follow the local law and place a steel curtin between the subs and himself, making sure he goes through the owner. I learned this the tough way, just how picky they are.
