Conservatories with Edwardian Influence

Edwardian conservatories and architecture are generally less ornate than high or late Victorian architecture, and can be identified by beautiful red brickwork, Mock Tudor cladding, metal windows, leaded lights and timber framed porches. Ample and bright rooms were decked with parquet wood or geometric encaustic tiles and fitted with simple internal decorative features.
