The Gable Front Conservatory like the Edwardian uses rectangular bases which  maximise floor space by eradicating the angles used on other designs. The gable apex roof  design gives a tremendous feeling of space and the triangulated gable adds to the effect. Where the Edwardian roof slopes back from the front, the Gable designs upright dimension hugely adds to the feeling of space. The gable itself can add individual character dependent on the choice of design selected from the many available.

The basic rectangular design of the base offers the same efficiency of space, however the roof designs on wider fronted designs might take on a different format.
