The perfect summer entertainment space with sunlight from all angles, but is it a conservatory or an orangery?
An orangery is a flat roofed part glazed part brick construction, attached to a property usually with a lantern in the centre of it.
A conservatory is an all glass construction usually attached to a property.
The biggest difference is the construction of the roof. A conservatory has over 75% of the roof glazed, an orangery has less than 75%. A conservatory by definition must also have over 50% of its wall area glazed.
