b'THE ORANGERYBEFORE THE MID-NINETEENTH CENTURY, when the technol-ogy used to construct glass roofs was developed, an orangery was simply a building with large south facing windows. Orangeries were used to conserve the specimen citrus trees stored inside during the cold winter months.Today,however,anorangeryisfunctionallysynonymous with a conservatory or a greenhousealthough the name sounds more exotic.This example of a neoclassical orangery connects the back of the white-painted brick colonial with the garden and landscape beyond. It mediates between the formality and scale of the homes brick faade and the informality of family life on the terrace.The design approach minimizes the height of the buildings roof as to not interfere with the windows, door, and small balcony of the master bedroom above.
