Poetically Modern Fireplaces

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Big Flame by Acquefueco Takes on a Symbolic Silhouette

— November 18, 2014 — Art & Design
Big Flame is the name of a contemporary fireplace. Shaped just like one big flame, it could easily be taken as a symbolic sculpture rather than a practical piece of furniture. Yet it is meant to be used in the home as an added bit of warm not just a piece of decor.

The perfect find for the winter time, the Big Flame fireplace is made with contemporary living spaces in mind. It is made out of polished stainless steel and bevelled tempered glass firescreen for safety. Inside the Big Flame is a stainless steel burner that is fueled with ethanol in order to generate heat without releasing harmful smoke and unwanted odors. This is key in the home.
Trend Themes
1. Sculptural Fireplaces - There is an opportunity for innovative designers to create statement fireplaces that serve both as functional heaters and conversation pieces in modern interiors.
2. Safe and Eco-friendly Home Heating - There is an opportunity for companies to develop eco-friendly and safe home heating solutions that do not release harmful smoke or odors.
3. Multi-functional Furniture - There is an opportunity for furniture designers to create products with multiple functions that blur the line between practicality and artistry.
Industry Implications
1. Interior Design - Interior design firms can explore the use of sculptural fireplaces as a focal point in modern interiors and create cohesive designs that incorporate them seamlessly.
2. Home Heating - Companies involved in home heating solutions can develop eco-friendly and safe products that appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.
3. Furniture Manufacturing - Furniture manufacturers can explore the development of multi-functional pieces that serve both as functional furniture and statement works of art.
