Dress up your conservatory with sheer volume.
The perfect accessory for any large conservatory is the Roof Lantern. Formed by a
second tier of windows above the main roof, lanterns add height and presence to
the overall structure of the conservatory. The volume of interior space that is
created as a result will make an impression on all who enter.

Which Conservatory Styles work best with roof lanterns?
Each style of conservatory offered by Canterbury Conservatories possesses its own timeless characteristics
and unique style, and most applications are complimented with a roof lantern. A lantern on a smaller
conservatory, however, could prove too much for many homes. As with any addition to your home you want the
new structure to compliment what is existing, not overpower it.
For most applications the roof lantern is a beautiful and effective way to add presence and scale to your new
glass room. The size of your lantern is up to you. Canterbury Conservatories fabricates all parts for
conservatory construction, allowing for nearly unlimited options and possibilities.
Form and Function
Aside from the obvious aesthetic appeal of the roof lantern, its shape also assists with an important function:
ventilation. The same property that adds scale to your conservatory also encourages natural air flow through
it. The lantern roof provides an escape for the warm air that collects in the rafters, encouraging the cooler air
at ground level to flow in and cool the conservatory's main living area.
At Canterbury Conservatories, we want to ensure a seamless integration of your new conservatory into its new space. As such, we take extra care
throughout the preparation and construction process to limit our impact on the area. By keeping the area free of loose construction materials and
precisely preparing the space for your new conservatory, we are able to expedite the construction process and have your new conservatory ready for
enjoyment in no time.
