Designer Paper Clip Sculptural Centrepiece Gas Fireplace

This extraordinary centrepiece fireplace combines dramatic sculptural design with carefully considered engineering. Although the fireplace appears entirely flueless, a discreet extraction system is integrated within the arched canopy and routed below floor level to the exterior of the building.

By concealing the extraction route within the fireplace structure and beneath the floor, the design leaves the space above completely open and unobstructed. The result is a striking architectural fireplace with no visible overhead flue, preserving the clarity, scale and openness of the surrounding interior.

The fireplace base is finished in Carrara marble, introducing a refined natural material that complements the sculptural form of the canopy. The fireplace can be designed as either a gas fire or a bioethanol fire, allowing the fuel system to be selected according to the technical and architectural requirements of the project.

The design can be fully customised, with bespoke sizes, shapes, materials and finishes available to respond precisely to the proportions and character of the space. Particularly well suited to large open-plan interiors, this fireplace creates a defining focal point without compromising the architectural composition of the room.

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.
