Light, Space, and Style

Conservatories & Orangeries

Orangeries come in a range of traditional and contemporary designs to suit your home. Each of our orangery extensions benefits from impressively high ceilings that maximise space, and robust pillars that provide both grandeur and privacy.

 

Cutting-edge thermal technology in your roof will reward you with all-year-round comfort. So, whether you opt for our traditional or modern orangeries, your brand-new room will stand out for all the right reasons.

A little history

 

Orangeries have their modern roots in 17th century Holland. The concept, though, may be much older. There are records of buildings similar to orangeries in 14th-century France, and the Romans had built glorified greenhouses many years before that.

 

The word ‘orangery’ comes from the 16th century. Initially, these orangeries (as the collection of trees was known) stayed in the gardens. But, with the introduction of plant pots, they were brought indoors.

 

 

Stylish and contemporary orangeries offer maximum light, yet feel solid, warm, and cosy – even throughout the cooler months of winter. The super-insulated columns and roof mean orangeries can deliver thermal efficiency levels five times higher than brick.

 

Combine bi-folds or sliding doors with full-height windows to create a truly unique space. A variety of threshold options offer heightened standards of accessibility and practicality.

 

'Traditional' Orangeries

 

Our traditional orangeries combine solid brick pillars, a performance glass roof, and a wide range of finishing touches. This option is the perfect way for you to bring a beautifully charming period look to your home.

 

Combine a glazed roof, traditional brick piers, and a decorative cornice to create the look orangeries are famous for. The insulated internal pelmet adds thermal efficiency and provides a useful place for lighting and speakers.
