Costadisem Conservatories
Garden room styling for Brighton homes
We plan glazed extensions and garden rooms for Victorian bay houses, seafront flats, and Hove terraces — balancing light, planting, and furniture against Brighton’s salt air and changeable weather.
Many Brighton homes open onto a shallow rear return or a narrow garden behind a bay frontage. We map sill heights, door swings, and roof pitch so a garden room feels like a true extension of the parlour rather than a bolted-on glass box.
On North Laine and Hanover streets, party-wall lines and neighbour windows often decide whether a lean-to, a lantern roof, or a flat-glazed link is the quieter neighbourly choice.
Properties facing the promenade or Hove Lawns take hard low light in winter and reflective glare off the Channel in summer. Specifying tinted glass, external blinds, or internal sheer layers is part of the styling brief, not an afterthought.
We also note corrosion risk on metal frames near the waterfront and favour finishes that hold up when salt mist settles on ironmongery overnight.
A conservatory that sits empty from October to March has failed its brief. We layer heating, shading, planting, and seating so the space works for morning coffee, evening reading, and wet-weekend dining without feeling like a greenhouse.
Consultations run from £90 to £210 depending on survey depth. Full styling packages typically sit between £650 and £4,200 — see the pricing sheet for scope bands.
Costadisem Conservatories focuses on garden-room interiors, glazed links between house and garden, plant zoning under glass, furniture suited to bright volumes, and shading-plus-heat strategies for Sussex coastal homes. We do not build structures; we style and specify the lived-in layer once the shell is known.
Recent briefs have covered Kemptown garden rooms, Hove Park side returns, and modest lean-tos behind Preston Park terraces. Each street has its own roofscape and daylight pattern, so we start with a measured visit rather than a catalogue layout.
