Create the Ideal Art Studio in a Conservatory

Anyone who enjoys creating art knows that there are two things a studio really needs, natural light and inspiration. You can bring your own inspiration into the space, but it’s even better if you have it right in front of you. That’s exactly what a conservatory can do for you when converted into a beautiful art studio.

Natural Light Abounds

Conservatories are designed to have plenty of windows and natural light streaming in. This makes it easier to paint or sculpt than if you have to rely on artificial lighting. Natural daylight has everything you need to keep your colours realistic and shading truly to life.

With glass panes all around the walls and even in the roof, for most designs, you have more than enough light pouring in to enjoy your new art studio. Add to that a lovely view out those windows and you have the inspiration you want.

Choosing the Right Conservatory Design for Your Studio

Adding a conservatory to your existing home is not as difficult as you might imagine. A simple conservatory can be built rather rapidly, particularly if there is a frame already designed for it. However, there are a few other things you need to consider as you select your conservatory design.

Size: Depending on your art, you may not need a lot of space, but if you tend to do large sculptures or paint huge pieces, you’ll certainly need to keep this in mind when you’re selecting a design.

Price: The cost of building a conservatory can be quite manageable, but if you want a larger space with more windows and a more intricate design, you should know that it will likely come at a cost. Your budget may determine which design you select.

Materials: Which materials do you prefer in an art studio? Traditional brick may be a lovely way to start out, but if it doesn’t match the rest of your home, it could be problematic. Siding, wood, and other types of materials can all be put to good use giving you a beautiful look for your conservatory.

The actual design will matter, as well. You want it to fit in with your home, as well as look good. Some conservatories are simple, with slanted roofs and nothing special, but others will feature gables and elegant curves that add a lot to the appearance, but also to the price tag.

Whatever choice you make, your conservatory will be ideal for setting up your art and getting started on enjoying that natural light and the beauty of your garden. The sun and rain will be your inspiration.
