Horizon Architecture · Essex and London
Architectural design and planning support for homeowners, property developers and businesses in Harlow.
We work with briefs across Harlow and Old Harlow. Horizon Architecture provides design, planning drawings and technical coordination for residential and commercial projects. We serve the area by arrangement; this page does not describe a separate local office.
Check the exact property address and planning authority before preparing your submission. Postcodes and postal town names do not always identify the local planning boundary.
Harlow’s householder guidance calls for a planning statement for conservation-area proposals explaining how relevant character appraisals and management plans have been considered. The statement should be supported by drawings that make the relationship between the proposed work and the existing building clear.

Your appointment defines the services included. Statutory application charges, surveys and specialist consultant fees are identified separately. Council approval is an independent decision and cannot be guaranteed.
Yes. We start with the available plans, your brief and the site constraints, then agree whether a measured survey, planning submission and technical package are required.
The planning and technical stages serve different purposes. Your quotation should identify the construction details, engineering and other consultant inputs needed for the intended work.
