A conservatory is the perfect choice for anyone wanting to capture the maximise amount of natural day light into their properties. But what happens when the sun goes down and you still want to enjoy your conservatory?
The style of roofing will determine what sort of lights you can use in the ceiling area for example; a lean to conservatory is usually limited to certain options due to the slope in the roof, unless suitable lights are added into the roofing system at the point of installation.
You need to consider the size and function of the room before you make your purchase and also the style of room you will be lighting. So whether you have a traditional or modern conservatory there are plenty of choices out there when adding lights into your garden room.
When choosing lights you should always have back ground lighting to create an ambiance and primary lighting for practical purposes. With that in mind let’s look at some ideas…
