Should you hire an architect when renovating an old Japanese house? Jaya here talks of his reasons why he thinks it's a good idea: 1) a Japanese architect understands the ins and outs of an old house better than you 2) s/he can communicate better with the carpenters and workers on the project 3) an architect can connect you with other specialists they trust who might be cheaper & better than someone you can find without an introduction.
