Orangeries
Orangeries trace their modern origins back to 17th-century Holland, although the concept may have ancient roots. Similar structures to orangeries can be found in 14th-century France, while the Romans had constructed elaborate greenhouses long before that time.
The term 'orangery' emerged in the 16th century. Initially, these orangeries (housing collections of trees) remained outdoors in gardens. However, the advent of plant pots facilitated their transition indoors. Orangeries are available in a variety of traditional and contemporary designs, tailored to complement your home. Each of our orangery extensions boasts lofty ceilings to maximize space and sturdy pillars that exude both magnificence and seclusion.
State-of-the-art thermal technology integrated into the roof ensures year-round comfort. Whether you prefer a traditional or modern orangery, your new space will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression for all the right reasons.
Conservatories
The term "conservatory" initially referred to a non-glazed structure utilized for food storage. It wasn't until the 17th century that it came to signify glazed constructions, often standalone buildings resembling greenhouses, aimed at shielding plants from cold temperatures.
Initially patronized by nobility, the first recorded conservatory in Britain emerged within Oxford University's Botanic Gardens in 1637. As their popularity surged, Sir Joseph Paxton revolutionized conservatory design with his iron-framed creation at Chatsworth House, covering three-quarters of an acre and reigning as the world's largest glass building of its time.
Paxton's subsequent masterpiece, the Crystal Palace in London, spanned 19 acres, boasting 293,635 panes of glass and claiming the title of the largest enclosed space globally.
Conservatories gained favor among the affluent during the Victorian era, often serving as venues for social gatherings such as tea parties by the late 19th century.
The early 20th century witnessed a decline in conservatory popularity amidst wartime turmoil and austerity measures. However, their resurgence followed the Second World War as economies recovered and technological advancements emerged.
Advancements like double-glazing and self-cleaning glass have enhanced comfort and affordability over time, rendering conservatories a practical and accessible investment in modern times.
