Windermere Orangery

We were approached by our client, via a local architect who was project managing the works, whom we had worked on a previous project in the Lake District, to design an orangery for this property.

The orangery formed part of a major refurbishment of this impressive Lakeland property. Working closely with the client, architect and builder under some very demanding restrictions from the conservation and planning officer, we were able to achieve this stunning addition.

Positioned off the kitchen this orangery brings the two areas together to form a great space for family dining or entertaining with a backdrop of the large garden and huge `monkey puzzle` tree.

A clerestory window and gothic tracery detail to the windows and doors mimic the similar detailing of the properties windows.

Lakeland stone dwarf walls with a sandstone cill compliment the rest of the property and underfloor heating provides the warmth for those long Lakeland winter nights.

Painted in Farrow & Ball `Shaded White` with polished chrome window and door furniture. External paving was laid in Lakeland slate to form the patio area in keeping with the local area and buildings.

After satisfying the requirements of a very demanding conservation officer, we achieved his approval for this stunning conservatory, which our customer had yearned for, for many years. Attached to a Listed Georgian farmhouse, that had been in the same family for over 100 years, it replaced a derelict green house that housed a substantial grape vine, which we managed to keep alive and its producing many grapes to date.

Painted in Farrow & Balls ‘James White’ and constructed in ‘Accoya’ wood its a room our customer absolutely adores and practically lives in. It has commanding views of the West Lancashire countryside from every angle.

Working in partnership with a local bespoke kitchen manufacturer, we created this fantastic orangery kitchen. The roof lantern over the casual seating area floods light into the adjoining kitchen area and the 9 leaf bi-fold doors really bring the outside indoors when fully opened.

French doors to the remaining elevations add to the openness of the area. The frames and lantern were finished in ‘Top Hat’ colour from the Dulux range.

Underfloor heating beneath the large porcelain floor tiles keep the area cosy and warm in the British winter.

This orangery was installed on a part renovation part new build of an old farmhouse in the heart of the beautiful Ribble Valley. Working closely with the client and their builder we achieved this great space with a complicated roof design and gable arch detail with crows feet spokes. The door styles were an offset margin bar and finished in Farrow & Balls `New White`.

A traditional style Victorian conservatory, with a clerestory window to provide increased height to the room. Attached to a Grade 2 listed property in Lancashire, we worked closely with the local Conservation Officer to achieve a structure that satisfied both our customers and the conservation officers requirements.

This was a more modern style design conservatory, attached to a property in a conservation area in the seaside town of Lytham St Annes. On this project, at the request of the customer, we used Accoya ® wood for the first time, over 8 years ago now. It still looks as good as the day we completed it, the paint finish looks in extremely good condition, even after so long.

An orangery and glazed link on a grade 2 listed old rectory building on the Pennine moors. The orangery is painted in Farrow & Ball `New White`. The stone dwarf wall is finished with a dressed stone plinth detail to mirror the detail on the old rectory building. The frames have a Georgian bar detail with a gabled peak and a deep frieze fascia with detailed pilasters to the corners.

In a long ago age, the cottage to which this double gabled conservatory is attached, was were the head gardener, of a large country estate lived. Situated in the Cotswolds the dwarf wall is built in local Cotswold stone and the frames are finished in Farrow & Balls `French Grey` which compliments the property beautifully. As part of the same project, we also replaced all the windows along the same style.

A glazed roof over a single lane swimming pool. The `Sapele` timber spars are stained in a rich mahogany stain. The roof glass over the pool is laminated Low E safety glass internally and a solar control, self cleaning glass externally.

The steel supporting brackets to the left hand wall have been specially fabricated for the purpose and engineered to reflect the agricultural past of the host building.
