We're not looking for anything huge, just something boxy and efficient. (ie, something that looks like those boxy infills that you see everywhere).

I'm not even sure where to start. Do you talk to an architect? Any recommendations on builders?
What sort of sq footage are you looking at? That will greatly impact the overall price.
