Aha. The kitchen element of this a red herring.
You are having an extension done. Is 2% of the build price a reasonable fee for the architect? It doesn't seem bad to me. If you can agree a fixed price with the builder, you will in effect be fixing the fee too - is that within budget?
If it's too much money and a very simple build, you can probably find a builder who will knock up some plans and build it themselves. (This is a risky strategy).
Kitchen folk will come and measure up and do all their planning within the kitchen price, or use the Ikea widget etc as above^.
