We worked on this project from concept to completion. Our clients were looking for a unique extension to the back of their house and give their 1970s bungalow an elegant uplift.
The design of two oak orangeries was developed to allow for a large kitchen and dining room extension on one side, and the smaller one used to extend the living area and flooding the space with light. This split design offered the benefit of completing the extension in phases, minimising disruption significantly in comparison to a full masonry alternative.
Basing the design around two orangeries has brought an abundance of light to the downstairs of the house, offering a comfortable and bright living space, whilst also immersing the space within the garden. The build technique includes direct glazing, allowing movement in the green oak frames as they age without any detriment to the longevity of the glazing and ensuring they remain water tight.
