There are a number of indoor/outdoor fireplaces but there is none like the urBonfire because it actually resembles a real log fire. You know, the campfire kind you enjoy when camping.
The urBonfire is made from glass and steel and uses bioethanol which is both odorless and smoke-free. This allows the fireplace to be used either outside in a patio or balcony or indoors in a living room. The dancing flames will add a warm ambiance to any living space.
German designer, Michael Hilgers created the urBonfire for Rephorm.de.
