Designer Suspended Fireplace with Bronze Glass Canopy
This bespoke centrepiece fireplace combines a square suspended canopy with tall glass panels, creating an elegant architectural feature at the heart of the room. Shown here with bronze-tinted glass, the fireplace can also be specified with clear or grey-tinted glazing to complement the wider interior palette.A long, low level stone-clad base extends beyond the fireplace and incorporates custom-made floating metal shelves above as an integral part of the design.
Rather than treating the fireplace, base and shelving as separate elements, the composition brings them together as one carefully curated feature.Positioned centrally within the interior, the fireplace can be viewed from across the room, helping to connect the surrounding living areas and draw the space together around the flame. The tall glazing maintains open sightlines while giving the fireplace a strong sculptural presence.Shown here as a gas fire with realistic log and coal decoration, the design can also be produced as a bioethanol fireplace.
The canopy, glazing, stone base, metal shelving, dimensions and finishing details are all custom-made to suit the architecture and material scheme of the project.To explore how a bespoke suspended glass fireplace with integrated shelving can be incorporated into your project, speak with one of our Design Consultants.

FAQ’s
Yes, when properly designed. Suspended fireplaces work particularly well in open-plan or double-height spaces, offering strong visual impact while maintaining clear sightlines and spatial flow
Generally a suspended fireplace can be incorporated in most spaces but it does require early planning and thought so the earlier on in the design process that are involved, the better.
A suspended fireplace is supported from above or from a concealed structural frame, creating a floating effect. These fireplaces are typically specified as sculptural architectural features and work particularly well in open-plan and double-height spaces.
Heat created by fireplaces is influenced by several factors, mainly fuel type and fireplace design. Our suspended fireplaces generally provide ambient heat and are often specified as architectural features rather than primary heat sources. Correct specification ensures the right balance between performance and design intent





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.
