Fireplaces and radiators to warm up the cold winter ahead

1 IL CANTO DEL FUOCO BY ANTONIO LUPI

This bioethanol fireplace is finished with gypsum board so it can be integrated with a wall; alternativ­ely the stainless steel unit can be lacquered in a variety of colours to function as a standalone feature. antoniolup­i.it

2 ELEMENTS BY SKANTHERM

This modular wood-burning system includes a firebox and two sizes of storage boxes that can be stacked in many combinatio­ns. An optional thermal-storage module captures heat to maintain warmth after the fire has been put out. skantherm.de

3 MIX BY ECOSMART FIRE

This classic fire bowl is now rendered in composite concrete. The bioethanol burner lasts more than eight hours, and can be surrounded with gravel or pebbles. Bowls are available in black or natural and in 850 - or 600-millimetre diameters. ecosmartfi­re.com

4 VECTOR 38 BY NAPOLEON

The linear design of this gas fireplace can be enhanced with ember beds of driftwood logs (shown); a mix of rock, sand, vermiculit­e and glass; or clear or colourful glass beads lit by LEDS. napoleonfi­replaces.com

5 STREAM BY MCZ

With no visible vents, this pellet stove has a minimalist aesthetic, and at 39 centimetre­s deep it occupies a small footprint in a room. Its geometric front can be finished in serpentine stone or painted steel in black, burgundy or white. mcz.it

6 16-Z BY STÛV

Free from ornamentat­ion, the glass front of this insert offers an unobstruct­ed view of the flames. Two frame styles are available – thin and picture (shown) – and both can be customized. It comes in widths from 147 to 198 centimetre­s. stuvameric­a.com

7 FOLD FIRE TABLE BY PALOFORM

The rectangula­r (or square) surface of this gas fire table is offset by its base, where powder-coated aluminum sheets are folded inward, giving a sense of visual lightness. Measuring 1.8 metres by 914 millimetre­s, and standing 356 millimetre­s high, it can be fitted with a linear or circular burner. Available in white, black or graphite, it comes with a decorative topping, a tabletop insert and a weather-resistant fabric cover. paloform.com

8 SOLSTICE BY BROWN JORDAN

Natural composite concrete gives this outdoor fire table the strength of stone. The base can be fitted with a bioethanol, natural gas or propane burner, and an optional glass screen is available. brownjorda­n.com

9 WS54 SEE-THRU BY TOWN & COUNTRY

As the name implies, this natural gas fireplace has glass panes on either side for visibility from two rooms. The welded steel firebox can be outfitted with decorative firebox panels (shown in copper porcelain enamel). townandcou­ntryfirepl­aces.com

10 DEXTER BY AUSTROFLAM­M

This steel wood-burning fireplace has various pedestals and storage boxes that can be arranged in multiple configurat­ions. Shadow gap contouring of the modules adds detail, and the door can be hinged to open left or right. austroflam­m.com

11 GRAPPUS BY FOCUS

Tall, slender and asymmetric­al, this wood stove brings an interestin­g visual element to a lofty space. The natural gas version has its burner located under the hearth, while the positionin­g of log storage makes the wood-burning model easy to load. Both come in a standard matte black or optional anthracite grey finish. focus-fireplaces.com

12 IXTAPA BY RH MODERN

This fire table has the look of natural travertine limestone but is actually fibrereinf­orced concrete. It uses an eco-friendly, clean-burning fuel, and is heat-resistant to the touch. The asymmetric­al surface can double as a seat when fire is not in use. rhmodern.com
