It may have originally been intended as just 'a place for plants', but the contemporary conservatory is now used for many different purposes - as a dining room, sitting room, games room, study, or even a kitchen - designed for living night and day, all year through.
Adding a conservatory as an extra room to an existing building is perfect in situations where a conventional extension simply would not work, or would not be permitted.
Always designed in character with the house, the Machin fits easily on to buildings of every period: as comfortable with a contemporary structure, as with a Georgian mansion, or timber-frame cottage. It can be free-standing, or used to link adjoining buildings in a sympathetic and practical manner. It can be fitted into corners, extended from straight walls, or placed atop a ground-floor extension.
