Edwardian Conservatory
These conservatories are based on the designs of Edwardian homes from that long past era. The Edwardian’s had a much more simplistic approach to design than the Victorians preferring to build in rectangular and square shapes. Their designs would normally have no arched surfaces and use of any angle other than a right angle(90degrees) was very rare. High roofs are a feature of these structures and this particular feature originates from the game of Croquet which was played indoors during bad weather by the wealthy who had conservatories built to accommodate this game. These design features give an Edwardian design two main advantages over a Victorian style conservatory.
Space – Because only square and rectangular shapes are used in their design the actual floor space of these structures is maximized giving you plenty of space. The high roofs also increase the available space especially for high standing ornaments, plants or furniture. A good tip if you have a high roof is to have it made with heat reflecting double glazed glass this avoids excessive heat loss.
Conservatories Prices - Having a more simplistic design means the time for designing is less and the actual manufacture and construction will be easier and therefore cheaper.

You can have these built in any material the choice is yours with a large range to choose from hardwood conservatories to Glass conservatory designs.
