Edwardian Double-Hipped Conservatory and Its Benefits

Earlier, conservatories are built as greenhouses where plants are cultivated. These days they are built as an extra addition to home and garden. They can be used for various purposes like a playhouse, gym room, kitchen, dining room, and so on. Conservatories can be constructed in various styles. Victorian, Edwardian, and Georgian styles are the most common ones that have been used since a long time. Here are some features of a special type of conservatory called Edwardian double-hipped conservatory.

An Edwardian conservatory is the one having three sides or facets giving a square or rectangular shape. A Edwardian double hipped conservatory has a flat front. As it has a rectangular or square shape, it provides an excellent use of space. All sides of the roof are sloped back to the center. The conservatory has an additional hip that slopes down to the rear. It is joined to the house by an aluminum box gutter at required height. This conservatory is more suitable for low eaves heights. They can best fit in L-shaped houses and corners.
