Horizon Architecture · Essex and London
Architectural design and planning support for homeowners, property developers and businesses in Uttlesford.
We work with briefs across Saffron Walden, Great Dunmow, Stansted Mountfitchet and surrounding villages. 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.
Uttlesford has published consultation material for an updated Design Code supplementary planning document. For a live project, distinguish adopted guidance from consultation drafts and check whether a neighbourhood plan also covers the site. The relevant document status should be recorded in the planning review.

For a village house, conversion or new home in Uttlesford, we can prepare a context-led brief covering the existing building, access, landscape setting and proposed materials. The design can then be tested against the guidance relevant to that location.

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.
