Contemporary Glass-Fronted Wood Fireplace with Guillotine Door

This modern wood-burning fireplace features an expansive glass front and a guillotine-style door, creating a generous view of the flames within a clean, contemporary design. The glass panel raises vertically, providing straightforward access for adding logs and cleaning the fire chamber.

The fireplace is integrated into a bespoke joinery base, while decorative metal side panels introduce texture and an additional architectural detail. The joinery, metalwork and fireplace proportions can be tailored to complement the materials and design language of the wider interior.

As a glass-fronted wood fire, the fireplace delivers high heat output and efficient performance, making it a strong choice for interiors where both visual impact and effective heating are required.

Similar fireplace designs can also be developed as gas or bioethanol fires, providing greater flexibility to suit the technical requirements of each project.

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.
