Gyrofocus Wood suspended pivoting wood-burning fireplace by Focus Creation, with spherical canopy and rotating body

Gyrofocus Glazed Wood Fire

Designer Gyrofocus Glazed Wood-Burning Fireplace

The Gyrofocus wood-burning fireplace forms part of the iconic Focus fireplace collection created by Dominique Imbert, bringing one of the world’s most recognisable suspended fireplace designs into a wood-burning format. Retaining its distinctive spherical body and pivoting central structure, it remains a dramatic architectural focal point while offering the authentic character of a real wood fire.

DEFRA approved, the Gyrofocus combines sculptural presence with the texture, sound and atmosphere that only burning timber can provide. Its rotating body allows the fire to be oriented within the room, enabling the flame to respond to the layout and use of the space around it.

Available as either an open wood fire or a closed glass-fronted model, the Gyrofocus can be specified to suit the technical, aesthetic and performance requirements of each project. The open version offers a more direct and immersive fire experience, while the glass-fronted option provides higher heat output and greater efficiency.

BESPOKE DESIGN

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.

01
Material Choices

Every element is open to specification, from stone, metal, and finish through to proportion and detailing.

02
Precision Engineering

Each fireplace is engineered in close partnership with Europe's leading manufacturers, with structural detailing and combustion performance resolved as part of the design.

03
Seamless Integration

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.
