Have you come to a point where you want to extend with a conservatory, but only have limited space to accommodate one of these glazed structures?
You’ll be glad to discover that compact styles exist, measuring between 6m² and 15m², which could make it achievable.
It’s doing them a disservice by calling them small, as these conservatories offer plenty useable space, attract spades of natural light and deliver the most absorbing views.
They can also function in lots of ways, as you’re about to find out.
Shape and Style Suggestions for Smaller Spaces
Discerning the best shape and style of conservatory is a hugely important exercise when space is tight. These styles often work:
- Lean-To: One of the smallest options, a lean-to conservatory particularly suits bungalows as its simple sloped roof leans against the property wall.
- Edwardian: Normally square or rectangular shaped, Edwardian conservatories have an arrangement with optimum space for furniture.
- Victorian: The multi-faceted, curved frontage of a Victorian conservatory sees that it doesn’t over occupy garden spaces.
- Gable: An incredibly minimalist style, the Gable conservatory comes with a high, vertical front wall, giving it tremendous ceiling depth.
Feature Roof Suggestions
Believe it or not, the type of roofing system used can create the illusion of space.
- Lantern Roofs & Roof Lanterns: A common architectural feature in flat and solid roof extensions, roof lanterns capture maximum light and give the space significant height.
- Rooflights & Skylights: Strategic placement of glazed sections in a tiled or sloping roof will see that light reaches every corner of the interior.
Small Conservatory Room Suggestions
Knowing at the outset how you want the space to function will see that it doesn’t become cluttered over time.
- Home Office: Many conservatories now serve as home offices, equipped with Wi-Fi and the technology to work comfortably from home.
- Dining Room: Maintain the tradition of having a Sunday roast by converting the conservatory into a luxurious dining space.
- Reading Space: If reading is one of your favourite ways of unwinding, the tranquil ambience of a conservatory will be a perfect location for it.
- Playroom: Let the kids use the conservatory as a playroom, where all their toys and games can be played.
Effective organisation of a small conservatory relies on a clearly defined usage, suitable footprint and an energy-efficient roof with quality glazing. Amber will ensure all of that is accounted for if you select us as your home improvement partner.
