Scotch Pine Residence
Scotch Pine Residence
MarvinMarvin
Located on a west-facing slope outside of Boulder, Colorado, the Scotch Pine residence was designed to look out upon the Front Range. The homeowners’ desire was to create a house with gorgeous mountain views from nearly every room. Marvin windows and doors were instrumental in creating these views, exposing the surrounding environment with the durability needed to withstand strong winds from high up on the range. In addition to observing the natural landscape, Marvin windows also played a critical role in bringing the house to a nearly net zero energy status. Geothermal heating and cooling plus photovoltaic panels provide energy to the residence. In turn, high-efficiency windows and doors from Marvin, natural ventilation, hybrid insulation, an air-tight building envelope, and a heat recovery ventilation system all work together to conserve as much energy as possible. The finished home reflects both admiration and respect for nature.

Il salottino del welcome, che con il suo sbalzo domina l'ingresso, è arredato con 4 poltrone disegnate da Antonio Citterio per Flexform e con la lampada Arco dei fratelli Castiglioni, una vera icona del design italiano. L'illuminazione portante della villa è assicurata dalla presenza di 522 piccole lampade in vetro soffiato, disegnate dall'architetto ed equipaggiate con sorgenti LED a bassissimo consumo. foto by Alberto Ferrero

Orangery with Pool Views, East Sussex
Orangery with Pool Views, East Sussex
David SalisburyDavid Salisbury
With a garden and views like this, it is easy to see why an orangery was chosen to provide the finishing touches to this period home in East Sussex. As part of a wider refurbishment of the whole property, which also included the complete re-landscaping of the garden and the installation of a swimming pool, this orangery created the all-important link between indoors and out. The orangery itself occupies a substantial footprint, measuring approximately 9m wide by 4.5m deep – maximising the available space accordingly. The combination of windows, doors and the afore-mentioned roof light ensure the new room is flooded with natural light – helping to create an open plan living space to be enjoyed whatever the time of day or year. The front aspect of the orangery has a combination of French and bi-fold doors which can be opened up to create that sense of merging outdoor living with the indoors: the perfect solution for a sunny day, spent with family or friends.

Contemporary Blue Conservatory Ideas and Designs

A conservatory, garden room or orangery is a decidedly British and Irish home extension: a room that allows us to enjoy our outdoor space without having to brave the unpredictable weather. Originally a type of glass house or greenhouse where plants could be grown in sheltered conditions, the modern conservatory now offers flexible entertainment space. Your contemporary conservatory can serve as an additional living area, a garden room, a spacious dining room or an open-plan kitchen; all flooded with the extra light that a glass extension will give you.

What conservatory style should I choose?

A lean to conservatory is the most straight-forward garden room structure with a slanted roof that appears to lean on the original house wall. If you’re looking for a small conservatory then the simple rectangular design of lean to conservatories makes them ideal for bungalows and properties with small gardens. The Victorian conservatory is the most common style, with an elegant shape which features a rounded end wall. An Edwardian conservatory is built similarly, but with a rectangular shape that is perhaps more space-efficient. L or P-shaped conservatories combine the styles of both Victorian and Edwardian garden rooms, and offer a versatile space that can be split into separate areas. Contemporary garden rooms with large glass walls are fantastic additions to modern homes or extensions and can create stunning exteriors. However, designs like these do use a lot of space and could require special planning permission. If you don’t have space for a large, contemporary garden room and you aren’t a fan of the uPVC conservatory, orangeries or sunrooms may appeal more; the structure is sympathetically designed to appear consistent with the style of the house.

What is an orangery?

They are both glass-walled and -roofed structures, but what is the difference between a conservatory and an orangery? The traditional orangery has a longer history ‐ it became popular in the 17th Century when homeowners wanted a place to grow citrus plants (e.g. orange trees, hence ‘orangery’) and so built structures, either stand alone or incorporated into their homes, with glass walls and roofs, similar to greenhouses. The conservatory is actually believed to have developed from the orangery after the fashion for growing citrus plants died down. However, homeowners still wanted a place to grow other tropical, herb or shrub plants that would allow sun and warmth into the house in summer and allow the plants to survive in winter. Today, the real difference is in the construction. Orangeries are considered traditional extensions with masonry walls and more standard Victorian structures, whereas modern conservatories can be more varied and made of a range of materials, including timber, uPVC or aluminium.

What type of conservatory furniture do I need?

Chances are your conservatory furniture will see a high amount of direct sunlight. Keep this in mind when choosing pieces, since some fabrics and materials can quickly fade or become uncomfortably hot. Outdoor furniture will generally stand up well to the heat and light exposure of sunrooms and orangeries, but don’t be afraid to mix and match with indoor pieces as well. Wicker, seagrass and rattan furniture items are good options, while you might want to steer away from metal and leather pieces which will get hot in the sunlight. Installing conservatory blinds or shades that can be drawn when the room isn't in use is a smart way to prolong the life of your sunroom furniture when the space is not in use.
