| Conservatories
can be generally described as the glass houses constructed by using several
materials in different styles for the purpose of enabling the people to
experience the sense of garden and green during cold seasons as well.
They mostly differ from greenhouse, etc. structures in that they have
heating and cooling installations, enabling people to spend time in them
for resting purposes. Thus, the people will be enabled to have the possibility
of closely feeling the nature and the green even during the periods of
bad weather conditions. The idea that the people become interconnected with the nature, while being protected in such indoor locations from unsuitable outdoor weather conditions dates to times as old as civilisation. The first conservatory for the purpose of growing plants as contained in the history books dates back to 600 B.C. |

The tradition of growing plants by protecting them in the indoor locations from unsuitable outdoor weather conditions is seen in Greeks, Egyptians, Chinese and Japanese, but the ones who essentially established and developed this idea were Romans. The Romans built special structures for their plants and used them not to be effected from unfavourable weather conditions. But unfortunately such formation gradually disappeared along with the collapse of Roman Empire. This disppearance process continued until 16th century when the Europeans started to construct these structures in an artistic and aesthetic way. Along centuries, the people experienced the attractive aspects of conservatories. Particularly in 16th to 17th century, those people who had broad houses used such localities in order to protect their plants against unfavourable weather conditions. During the period of Queen Anne, from Royal family, when the weather got hot, all the plants, chairs and garden furnitures were carried into such indoor locations and these places started to be used as enjoyable rooms to welcome guests. Naturally because, during those periods, the technology had not been developed as much as it is today, these indoor localities were used only when the weather was hot and dry. As there were no different design capabilities during those periods, the conservatories were generally constructed as localities with wide windows and stone walls. In early 19th century, the modern conservatory designs started to take today's shape and the glass started to be heavily used in their structure. But today the reasons for constructing conservatories are not to grow plants and protect them from bad weather conditions, but to have our houses in which we live gain modern living ambiences constructed heavily in glass which present aesthetic and attractive, enjoyable environments, not being effected by any unfavourable conditions during hot weather in summer and cold weather in winter. Today, there are thousands of conservatories constructed in the European countries and in the US, with trend gradually becoming very popular all over the world. With its design, manufacturing and implementation experience, Eta Yapı A.Ş. has been carrying out production and implementations of modern conservatories for years by using today's technology. When creating systems in many designs minimising power losses and with the lowest maintenance cost by using all the advantages of modern technology in its conservatories systems, ETA carries conservatories to our time by maintaining their attractiveness and magnificence since ancient times. |
