Dominic Palmer, the head gardener of a large private estate had an infectious enthusiasm for the greenhouse he worked in - After his Alitex greenhouse was built, the shelves were packed full of cuttings and flowers for twelve months a year!
Dominic prefered greenhouses to feel alive and loved; this was certainly true of his workplace. It had been kitted out with side benching, either side of the lobby to partition the doors in the central section, as well as creating a u-shaped section in both the left and right areas. This allowed Dominic to carry out his duties with plenty of workspace. Cold frames were fitted either side of the lobby along with side vents and cast iron grids built into the flooring for ventilation as well as to look beautiful.
Dominic's attachment to the greenhouse ensured that it was presented at its best at all times. In terms of standout features, Dominic is impressed by the high finish, describing it as spectacular. The quality of the design ensures that every visitor thinks the greenhouse is made of wood, rather than aluminium.
