Located in the heart of Oxfordshire, Blenheim Palace stands as a cherished historical landmark. It has been the residence of the Churchills and is currently home to the 12th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough. Recently, this famous site joined forces with Plantation Shutters to refresh one of its cherished spaces, the Orangery. Let’s explore this unique partnership and its impact on preserving a piece of architectural heritage.
The Orangery: Centuries of Elegant Dining
Originally built in the 18th century by renowned architect Sir John Vanbrugh, the Orangery at Blenheim Palace is a masterpiece of Georgian architecture. With its soaring ceilings, elegant columns, and expansive windows overlooking the palace gardens, the Orangery has served as a venue for grand events, royal gatherings, and cultural celebrations for centuries.
Crafting Custom Shutters
Plantation Shutters set out on a challenge to craft custom semi-circular shutters for 13 of the Orangery’s distinctive windows. The attention to detail ensured each shutter seamlessly integrated into this historic space, blending heritage preservation with modern craftsmanship.
Celebrating Heritage
The collaboration between Blenheim Palace and Plantation Shutters is more than just a renovation project – it’s a celebration of heritage and a testament to the timeless beauty of Georgian architecture. The bespoke window treatment of custom shutters blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary and timeless design, paying homage to he Orangery’s rich history while adding timeless sophistication.
