Bathyscafocus Porthole Fireplace
Contemporary Bathyscafocus Porthole Wood Fireplace
A circular glass porthole frames the flames, creating a clear and captivating view of the fire while delivering improved heat performance compared with an open-fronted design. The suspended body retains its light, sculptural presence, appearing to float effortlessly within the room.
By enclosing the fire behind glass, the Bathyscafocus Porthole offers a more controlled and efficient wood-burning experience without diminishing the architectural impact of the original design. The result is a fireplace that balances Focus Creation’s design heritage with refined modern performance.

Architectural fireplaces, designed without precedent
If you can conceive it, we can deliver it. That is what Modus does best. Working closely with our in-house design team, and in collaboration with Europe's leading manufacturers, we develop fireplaces that respond precisely to the architecture, materiality, and intent of each project. The result is a fireplace tailor-made for its setting, and for no other.
Every element is open to specification, from stone, metal, and finish through to proportion and detailing.
Each fireplace is engineered in close partnership with Europe's leading manufacturers, with structural detailing and combustion performance resolved as part of the design.
We work as an extension of the project team, from concept through to commissioning, so the fireplace sits within the architecture rather than against it.
