Winter Garden

Why to realize this Eden corner within your property


A conservatory is much more than just an additional living space where many varieties of plants will thrive. If equipped with an adequate heating system and ventilation, its special atmosphere is well-suited for cosy get-togethers and relaxed winter evenings, as well as to host parties or have an art room. It can represent an extra room as well as a real garden enriched by exotic plants.

The conservatory will add value to your house

To have a winter garden (or conservatory or orangerie), first you need the help of a professional. He/she will take care of the building permit. If one day you will put on the market your house, the winter garden will allow you to higher the purchase price. Moreover, it will represent a plus for potential buyers.

 

To build an orangerie, you need high-quality materials, so as not to have to replace them after a few years. The glass must guarantee thermal and acoustic insulation, indeed. The frame can be in aluminum wood (the best solution), or in iron (French style).

 

Position and orientation of the structure are also important factors. The winter garden could be experienced all year long, indeed! The more sun comes in, the lower the heating costs. Depending on the plants you want to grow, the maximum temperature to maintain could be 12 degrees (cold winter garden), 19 to 25 degrees for exotic plants. However, be careful not to underestimate the humidity issue, which can be avoided with a good ventilation system.



Living room, kids room, greenhouse or office: let the conservatory be whatever you wish!

This exclusive area can be realized in a villa, as well as in an apartment. In fact, the winter garden might be an outdoor area (veranda) or an indoor area (glazed living room). Moreover, the orangerie can also be an art studio, an office, a kids area and much more.


Whatever activity you choose to practise in the winter garden, the natural light will give you energy while the plants will create a welcoming atmosphere.
