Révéler le design

Un showroom se doit de se présenter sous son meilleur jour afin de laisser la meilleure impression aux visiteurs – fort heureusement, les Architects of Fire en Allemagne savaient que deux brûleurs EcoSmart offriraient l’esthétique parfaite au showroom Hoflehner Interiors.

Any business knows that first impressions can make or break you when it comes to attracting new clients. So when Hoflehner Interiors commissioned Michael Prohaska of brenn-punkt, Architects of Fire, to work HIS magic on one of Hoflehner's showrooms, all involved knew the design had to make a visual impact.

Their Showroom in Linz, Austria, has now been transformed by the addition of two EcoSmart burners, which Michael selected not only for their aesthetics, but for practical reasons too.

“First and foremost our client wanted a timeless, clean design using fire as a central piece in the space,” explains Michael. “It also needed to be clean burning, with no soot, smoke or ash to be released into the air in the showroom.

Les foyers et brûleurs EcoSmart offrent les flammes les plus raffinées et spectaculaires de tous les brûleurs à éthanol – obtenir une flamme saisissante et élégante était l’un des principaux critères que nous souhaitions satisfaire. Notre client a adoré l’intégration d’EcoSmart Fire. Le concept principal du showroom était son idée !

Hoflehner Interiors prides themselves on their overall aesthetics planning. Their philosophy states that every detail in a space contributes to the total mood and style of the room. So, taking a leaf out of their book, considering all other items in the showroom space before designing a suitable indoor fireplace was a priority for Michael.

“The fire is for aesthetic reasons only – the whole design of the EcoSmart burner is very smooth and sleek, and we paired it with tiles and other modern smooth textures to fit with the feel of the client’s showroom,” says Michael. “The clean and even design works perfectly within the space.

Also, the big variety of burner sizes and models gave us a lot of choice. When we were working the design of the fireplace into the space, it helped so much that the EcoSmart website provides all of the relevant planning data, 3D data and CAD files.

This is a very useful service that allows designers to plan how we are going to incorporate individual fireplaces, including burners and fireboxes, into a space, using the exact measurements provided.”

Michael and the team at brenn-punkt, Architects of Fire, have used EcoSmart fires several times before, and are now working exclusively with the brand on future projects. They currently have a vision to install EcoSmart in a hotel or restaurant.
