Up and Coming: Contemporary Orangeries

When people think of orangeries, you think of brickwork and a few windows. But, orangery design is changing. Contemporary orangeries are a popular and growing design, which allows for lots of natural light to flood your home due to a large amount of double glazed windows and glass that is installed within the design. The new, contemporary orangery uses the Ultraframe Ultrasky Roof, which is, essentially, a large roof lantern which takes up the whole size of the orangery roofing system. Combine this with super-insulated columns and a flat cornice to create a beautiful, thermally efficient space that can be used throughout the year. The Anthracite Grey colour is also becoming more popular, and an excellent choice for a contemporary look for your Essex home. We use market-leading manufacturers Ultraframe for our orangeries, giving you the peace of mind you are getting a high-quality and reliable product for your home. Ultraframe Marketing Director, Alex Hewitt, said: “While there is certainly still a place for traditional orangeries, the modern orangery is suited to many more homes and fits perfectly with the strong, clean lines that are so popular in current home trends. The modern orangery image shown in our poll was a stunning example of what can be achieved with our Ultrasky roof.” This contemporary orangery uses the strongest glazed roofing system on the market. This is fully weatherproof, and has fast installation times too! This can save up to two days on-site for our team of trained, expert installers, compared to a traditional orangery build. This roofing system also uses 25% fewer bars compared to other competitiors on the market, helping to enhance your site lines, and the amount of natural light in your home too. There is no doubt that the stunning contemporary orangery which won the poll is flooded with natural light due to the minimal design of the roof glazing bars but the sleek design of the roof belies its astounding strength – Ultrasky is the strongest glazed roof on the market, capable of spans up to 8m wide. There is no doubt as to why a contemporary orangery has become more popular than the original, traditional orangery. Even with the large glazed panels, you have a room that can be used throughout the year, no matter what the weather, due to its excellent levels of thermal efficiency.  Not only this, but Ultrasky is also thermally broken inside and out for unrivalled thermal performance. Alex concluded: “The results of this poll reinforce why the Ultrasky roof is a fantastic choice a contemporary orangery. It has been used in this installation to create an absolutely stunning living space which we are sure will bring a huge amount of enjoyment to its owners. Of course, if you live in a traditional property that demands a more traditional style of orangery, Ultraframe has the orangery roofing systems for the job, but it seems that the contemporary style of orangery is definitely the preferred choice of the majority of homeowners in the UK. With its fantastic thermal, time-saving and strength benefits, Ultrasky is the ultimate choice for contemporary orangeries.”
