Bringing The Outside In

"I was amazed at the magical power of a greenhouse to change someone's life. Our client located her home office in the greenhouse. Whenever I visit I am sure to find her basking in the light of that glass conservatory".

This quote from an architect is typical of the comments that we get from our clients, once we have added a conservatory to their house, says Paul Avis, a partner in Hampton Conservatories, based in Huntington.

If you are considering an addition to your home and want to increase the quality of your life in a way that other traditionally built structures cannot achieve, then a conservatory is a must. By adding a glass room, you can achieve a seamless transition between the indoors and the garden beyond. The feeling of flooding the house with light, while eating breakfast, reading a newspaper or watching TV, surrounded by beautiful plants, trees, fountains, and other garden features is bound to help you relax and bring your blood pressure down a notch or two.

"Time and again," Paul says, "our clients tell me that despite the size of the house they may have, they find themselves naturally drawn to spending most of their free time in their conservatory. And if it is situated off the kitchen, family room or den, then the whole family tends to congregate there. At parties, the conservatory becomes the focus of attention where everyone wants to gather."

"Whether you live in the country or in the city, a conservatory is a great addition. Recently, the trend in the city has been to enclose outside terraces to provide much needed relaxation spaces with outstanding views"

The beauty and uniqueness of a conservatory is one sure way of adding value to your home. It is a great selling point when clients come to put their properties on the market, although for most people, once they have a room, they never want to leave.

Hampton Conservatories has been manufacturing conservatories in Ireland for over 20 years, and the design office on Long Island has been designing and installing rooms here in the United States for almost a decade. The company has a green policy towards its projects, and the hardwood rooms, manufactured from mahogany, use timber hand-selected from sustainable sources. Hampton Conservatories just had a showing a room at the Hampton Classic, and earlier this year, they displayed rooms at The Chelsea Flower Show and Hampton Court Flower Shows, in England. At an earlier show, the company was awarded the conservatory industry's premier award for a room they installed for the Harvard University Faculty Club, and more recently, they installed a room for The Ronald McDonald House of Long Island.

Whether you are considering a new dining room, family room, studio, pool enclosure or gym, why not contact Hampton Conservatories for a design consultation.

The company offers a turn-key operation, from design to installation. They will work with you to obtain the necessary permits, and once the room is installed, will help you furnish and decorate it, using either their own collection of furniture, or your personal selection. Fully licensed and insured, they have their own highly experienced installers, who also undertake any associated general construction. Many clients commission Hampton to do other construction work for them, because they are so happy with the quality of the work and service.

In closing, Hamptons' client went on to say, "Your firm supplied the design skills, the quality production, and the expert installation that made this project such a huge success. I look forward to recommending Hampton Conservatories to any and all of our clients for projects in New York or around the world."
