Are you saying that the Amphur will decide what kind of house I can have? The design, style, etc?

in my understanding:
Unless in a private compound, I do not know of prescribed design / style,
and, as far as I know, Communities do not have a "design approval committee" that needs to approve plans.
Ampheu checks that the design is in line with prescribed structural specifications.
(in this area Over 100 sqm, they issue a building permit. under 100 sqm they issue a certificate of approval. )
Try to find an engineer that does the technical design for you. (Ask recommendation at Ampheu sometimes is easiest way.)
If it is a first house you design yourself, ask an interior design professional to give a critique on the layout , the plumbing, wiring, East/West axis etc.
