If you’re unsure which option you should go for, read on and we will guide you through the benefits of both conservatories and orangeries.

Conservatory

Conservatories have been around since 18th century England when they were popularised by Victorian society who enjoyed horticulture during their leisure time.If you are looking for a space that is versatile, adaptable, and expressive then the conservatory may be just what you’ve been searching for. It can provide an added level of functionality to your home while still maintaining its aesthetic appeal. The conservatory has always played an important role in gardens as it provides warmth during winter months and shade during summer months; this dual-purpose design is one of many reasons why these structures have become so popular across Europe.

Orangery

If you are looking for a place to enjoy the outdoors year-round, an orangery may be the perfect addition to your home. An orangery is essentially a brick structure with large windows and a flat roof that has glass lanterns. It can serve as both an entertaining space in warm weather months and protection from harsh winter. f you’re looking for a space to create an indoor garden, the orangery is perfect. Whether it’s in your home or business, this structure can be used as a greenhouse and give off that lush feeling of summer all year long. The brick exterior will keep the temperature inside at a comfortable level while still getting plenty of sunlight through its large windows with glass lanterns on top if desired. This type of building would make a great addition to any property where people want more greenery close by without taking up too much room inside!

Conservatory or orangery?

A conservatory is a fully glazed structure that has walls made of glass.  If you want to include the maximum amount of natural light in your home, a conservatory is likely what you are looking for. It  has many benefits including increased energy efficiency and aesthetics.
