Hi Abbas - Welcome to planning planet.

You say the variations will affect the design massively which implies that a large part of the original design will have to be done again.

There is no "correct" way to calculate the ammount to be paid.

You can ask the designer to break down his fees so that you can check if it is reasonable.

My advice is to negotiate a reasonable fixed fee rather than pay by the hour.

Best regards

Mike Testro
