Orangeries Proving To Be Very Popular in SomersetHow often have you thought about extending your home but do not want to go through the planning process and have the hassle of weeks of disruptive building work?
Well now you can and the alternative is a stylish contemporary orangery and they are fast becoming the latest must-have extensions.
While an Orangery has traditionally been synonymous with luxury country houses, the latest contemporary bespoke designs are just as at home in the suburbs as they are in the country.
Easy on the eye as they are on the pocket, they make a stunning alternative to Conservatories. With more brickwork showing than conservatories, these contemporary living spaces generally don’t need planning permission or any special building regulations.
It is understandable why many people have switched to orangeries which can have around half of the wall area in brickwork, making it feel more solid and room-like while light still floods in from the self-cleaning solar control glazed roof.
And what’s more they can be designed with a unique internal lighting pelmet for soft low voltage down-lighters which can be used during the evening while you watch the plasma screen TV in your cosy new living space.
We have really caught on to the Orangery phenomenon here at Britannia Windows. While the team has many years experience in conservatories, we have now diversified and adapted our skills into designing and building Orangeries.
