Kitchen/Home Remodel - Renderings?

My wife wants to remodel our kitchen , but we are unsure of which direction to go. Are there any good websites to use where I can draw in our layout and try to get ideas from? We've also thought about calling in a architect/interior designer for ideas and maybe that's the route we should go - has anyone ever went this route before? What's that process like?

There is a wall between the kitchen and living room that we're taking out (is load bearing, will require a beam, have talked to contractors about this). We'd love to add a bar along where the wall used to be (on the kitchen side, the wall is along our main counter space, so we'd widen that existing counter (redoing the counter tops obviously) to make the bar). But, our living room is not wide enough to make this work.

So we've thought about just taking the wall out and opening it up, but just not having a bar (would essentially now be a half wall). Or we could still take out the first wall I'm referring too (and leave just a half wall) but also take out the wall on the other side of the kitchen, this would give us the room we need for a bar, but we'd have to move the fridge, take out cabinets and add some back - project goes from $$$ to $$$$$$.

Anyway, there's a few different ways to go about it. Would love to be able to visually see it. Is there a good website to use that I could play around with the layout, or should we call in a architect, interior designer?
