How to make decisions on design?

I just put in an offer on a house that I plan to live in and flip over 2 years. However, the house was in the middle of a "rehab" when the owner lost his job...and so parts of the house are torn apart. 

If I win on this offer, then I am going to have several design decisions to make. I want them to be flip worthy. 

2 of the decisions...

the downstairs bathroom has been totally gutted...down to the studs. So the entire thing will have to be built. 

Also, a load bearing wall was taken out between the living room and kitchen. The way it currently is, is awkward and so I am going to have to get creative to make it look good. 

Where does everyone go to when they need help on things like this?

My suggestion is to marry someone who is good with design and that way you get them really cheap! 😉
