An oak frame conservatory is a home extension that blends rich oak and glass, inviting natural light and garden views into your home. An oak frame conservatory can provide extra living space, enhance a home’s aesthetic and can work with both contemporary and traditional properties. Oak is a natural material that is durable and resilient and compliments its natural surroundings.
Many homeowners use the term ‘conservatory’ to broadly encompass a range of extension types, such as garden rooms, orangeries and sunrooms. The type of extension is often defined by the roof structure. For example, by definition, a conservatory is considered to have around 75% of the roof and 50% of the walls as glazing. This type of structure was traditionally used for growing plants but has been adapted over the years to become a room to relax and entertain in. Due to the high volume of glazing, this type of design is not as popular as it used to be because of energy efficiency. To overcome the issues relating to energy efficiency, garden rooms, sunrooms and orangeries have become more popular.
