In terms of the look that you want to achieve, it would probably be fair to say that you could categorise conservatory designs & styles into 4 easily distinguishable groups.
Edwardian Conservatory:
With a rectangular or square floor plan, Edwardian designs can sometimes be more practical than Victorian, and with vaulted & gable roof lines they can feel more spacious.
Lean-to Conservatory:
A very simple design with flat plane sides and a single plane sloping roof and rectangular floor plan, commonly used as an ‘entry level’ conservatory.
Bespoke Conservatories:
As a ‘catch-all’ category for variations is style, you might find designs such as P-shaped, L-shaped & T-shaped conservatories here, as they will generally be variations of one of the above styles.
Victorian Conservatory:
This style is very reminiscent of a traditional sunroom, with ornate roof lines and usually 5 or 6 faceted sides in the shape of a pentagon or hexagon, used often for p-shaped variations.
