An orangery design will normally be heavily influenced by the home where it’s due to be fitted, sharing many of its traits and characteristics so that the two things beautifully merge. You don’t get as much glass as you do in a conservatory, but what you do get is more brickwork, which is why an orangery is often regarded as a more private setting for a householder.
With a bespoke orangery design, you have an almost endless list of possibilities. One of the biggest considerations to be made is whether you want a traditional or modern orangery.
It’s good to have options and to not have to pay beyond your budget for an orangery, with our contemporary orangeries being very well-priced for what you get, which is many of the features of a traditional design. It has a similar structure to a traditional orangery and doesn’t look too much different to one on both the inside and outside.
Where the two differ is that a modern orangery doesn’t have the same flat perimeter around the roof that you get in a classic orangery.
With the addition of intelligent glazing in our modern glass roof system, it helps it to perfect regulate the internal temperature. As the seasons change, the comfort level in the orangery will remain strong, guaranteeing you of useable space in any weather.
Would you rather your orangery replicates some of your home’s character, or are you more concerned about it improving your garden area? Once you know the answer, let us know.
An orangery can be the home setting where you host the Christmas dinner or weekly Sunday roast or put your culinary skills to the test by designating it as a kitchen space.

So that you have the largest selection of colours to choose from why not commission us to build you a UPVC orangery. You will be blown away by just how many different shades and finishes there are available with colours to suit every property type. From traditional offerings such as white and cream, to modern-day favourites including grey and Chartwell Green, we cover the entire colour palette.
All the windows and doors that help to make up your orangery design can be finished in a wide selection of colours. Your choice of colour should be judged on things like the roof and other accompanying elements. Amongst our colour options are several woodgrains if you want to give your orangery the look of a timber-based design.
We have found that the best way to formulate an aluminium-based finish is to apply a powder-coated finish to the window frames in 11 separate stages, which causes strong paint adhesions to be induced and gives it a deep, rich colour. Our aluminium woodgrain finishes are created rather differently and achieved following a process called sublimation – these woodgrains are available in Oak and Rosewood.
There are three types of roofing system available at Planet: The Classic Roof, Cornice Roof, and Lantern Roof. For something traditional we suggest that you go for the standard Classic Roof, but for a roof with a little more detailing there are no finer options than the Cornice Roof and Lantern Roof. Remember that the roof will play an integral part in the overall orangery performance.
It takes many hours of skill and concentration for our craftspeople to model the traditional and contemporary-styled handles for our windows so that they exude beauty and simplify window operation.
The handles also include a secure locking system and it’s this feature that makes our windows so secure.
