    Fireplace-Full HD TV Hybrid Burns With Fiery Naffness

    Gas-powered fireplace with built-in Full HD TV, or Full HD TV with built-in gas-powered fireplace? You decide! Whatever you pick, you can't go wrong if you wear a shiny silk robe to match the shiny glass finish. More »

    The TURN Fireplace Spins Around to Keep You Warm

    It's not as beautiful as the Gyrofocus, but the TURN fireplace seems less likely to set your house on fire. After all, if your fireplace spins around 360 degrees, it should be well-secured and not just dangling from the ceiling. More »

    Electrolux Brings Us One Step Closer To a Fireplace In a Can

    We like to put everything else in a can, so why not fire? That must be what designer Camillo Vanacore was thinking when he dreamed up this portable, capsule fireplace. More »

    Burning Cities Firescreens Make Horrible Tragedies Downright Cozy

    It's been a long time since fire ravaged London and Rome in 1666 and 64 AD respectively—which must be why we can feel okay about making cool firescreens based on these tragic incidents today. More »

    Vauni Cupola Fireplace Mounts Like, But Is Classier Than, a Flat-Screen TV

    Vauni's bioethanol ventless fireplace, the Cupola, may not have the warmth or coziness of a traditional wood-burner, but it does have practicality and cold Scandinavian style. Plus, the thing mounts right on your wall. More »

    The Gyrofocus Fireplace Is The World's Most Beautiful Object (Officially)

    I don't know if world peace was mentioned in the acceptance speech, but apparently the Gyrofocus fireplace took first place in the Pulchra design competition, a beauty contest for pretty objects. No surprise really, it's a stunner. More »

    Piet Portable Fireplace Looks Like Something NASA Would Make

    There's Nothing Dangerous About a Fireplace in a Chest

    If you're stuck in a home without a built-in fireplace, you can now buy a $5,400 chest that opens up to reveal a self-contained fireplace. If you manage to not burn your place down, it'll be a great substitute. More »

    Vidro Floor Fireplace, Optionally Fueled by Coffee Table Books

    Lumos Outdoor Fireplace Transforms Into a Grill

    As a guy that loves charcoal grilling, I am digging the Lumos. But it is more than just a grill. Simply flipping up the chimney transforms it into an elegant outdoor fireplace. More »

    Elaborate Wall-Mounted Fireplaces For Holiday Ambiance

    Wall-mounted fireplaces are nothing new, but the new Icoi (Icoya) and Yan-Li designs from Arkiane are a lot more elaborate than most of the products that are already on the market. More »

    Bring Romantic Business Time Anywhere with Portable Conmoto Suitcase Fireplace

    Fireplaces are great for ambiance, but generally not portable. Kooky German design firm Conmoto, who brought us the bookshelf fireplace back in December, has solved the portable problem with the Travelmate Portable Fireplace. At 55 lbs. it will require a little effort to cart it from room to room, but we think the resulting night of intimacy, wherever it happens to be, will be well worth the strained back. More »

    Planika Fires Lets You Stoke the Flames Without the Smoke

    Nothing screams impeccable taste like having a fireplace in the middle of your coffee table and now, thanks to Planika Fires, you can keep the flames roaring without worrying about smoke or soot. The company makes the magic happen using a proprietary liquid biofuel called Fanola, which burns completely smoke and smell free. More »

    Outdoor Electric Fireplace With Speakers and MP3 Support Boggles the Mind

    We enjoy electric fireplaces as much as the next guy due to their convenience and ability to not spurt fiery ashes onto your carpet, but having an outdoor one is very strange. It might just function decently on a patio or a deck as a centerpiece for your friends to gather around, which is probably why this one has concealed speakers and MP3 support. Plus, the included shrubbage goes pretty far in convincing guests that it's a real fireplace sitting out in the middle of your backyard. [AVING via Uber Gizmo]

    Safretti's Latest Wall-Mounted Gaya Fireplace Looks Like a Flaming Mouth

    Safretti's latest in their line of wall-mounted fireplaces for urban living spaces without proper wood burning ventilation looks a lot like a mouth. A mouth much like the mouths Seth MacFarlane likes to draw on inanimate objects on Family Guy, which is why we picture this thing spewing obscenities, as well as 7.1kW of heat from its alcohol-fueld fire hole. The bad news? That 7.1kW doesn't really measure up against a real fireplace, so this is more for a mouth motif decoration than practical heating. [Safretti via Tuvie via MocoLoco via DVice]

    Fireplace Heater Looks, Feels Just Like the Real Thing

    Leave it to the Japanese to create a heater that's as ingenius as this. It may look like a cross between an LCD display and a space heater, but the display part of the gadget actually shows a "real" fireplace. The end result is that you get to imagine that your (really tiny) Japanese apartment has a fireplace in it while you're warming up your fingers and toes during the long Kyoto winters. Too bad it's 25,800 yen ($242) or we'd import one for ourselves. [Hammer Price via DVICE]

    Conmoto Wall Cabinet Doubles As Roaring Fireplace

    Last year we showed you a wall-mountable fireplace that hangs where a flat-panel TV rightfully should. As the days get colder once again, we've got a fireplace you can actually set your new flat-panel on top of, if you don't mind a little melted plastic. The Conmoto wood-burning—yep, wood-burning—fireplace was designed by Peter Maly so that the heat dissipates upwards from either side, via air-filled chambers. As to where all the smoke goes, it seems you're still going to need a flue. Damn you, design gurus! Why do you tempt us so? [Appliancist]

    Fire Table Keeps Your Coffee Warm, Toasts Your Feet

    Even though spring is definitely here, we still like the idea of a cozy fire, and this Fire Table from British design firm Fuego is just weird enough to satisfy our firebug jones. Hey, any excuse to play with fire is good enough for a recovering smoker. More »

    Do It Yourself Ambilight Fireplace

    If you thought Philips' Ambilight TVs were impressive, check out what this guy has done with his fireplace. He basically got some LED strips, an RGB controller, and then mounted it all on the sides of his fireplace. The end result: a fireplace the folks at Philips would be proud of. His step-by-step guide is available at the link below and he's willing to help out anyone who e-mails him, that is if you don't mind a little ghetto ambilight. – Louis Ramirez More »

    A Fireplace with an iPod Dock is the Last Straw

    Enough is enough. A fireplace does not need an iPod dock, no matter what. There is just no reason for it to exist, and it turns what in theory could be a classy addition to your living room into a cheap fad-chaser. No matter how nice something looks (not that this fireplace looks all that nice), the addition of an iPod dock makes it look cheaper, crappier and less desirable. More »

    Cyclone Vertical Fireplace Makes the Human Torch Feel at Home

    Tabletop Fireplace is Wussiest Campfire Ever

    There's just nothing like a roaring fire in the middle of winter to warm your bones. Unfortunately, for those of us living in big cities fireplaces are rarely a viable option. Personally, I've found the flaming trash can to be a decent replacement, but if you don't happen to live in a hobo-cluttered alleyway that might not work as well for you. More »

    A Hummer with a Fireplace: Think It's Too Much?

    Because Hummers aren't offensively over-the-top as-is, Germany's GeigerCars decided to trick one out in the spirit of the holiday season. We're not talking just rims and a big subwoofer, either: they put in a goddamned fireplace. In addition to the hearth and chimney, it has a big flat-panel TV, gullwing doors, a snowmobile in tow, and a storage rack designed to hold snowboards, hockey sticks, and… curling stones. Right.

    Wall-mountable Fireplace Heats Up Your Living Room

    Feels like everyone's mounting their flat panels on their walls these days, so what better way to one-up your neighbor than with this wall-mountable fireplace. The fireplace's creators (West Country Fires) claim it automatically cleans up after itself so you don't have to worry about any harmful gases filling up your apartment. At $2,500 dollars, it's a little too close to the price of a real plasma, no matter how many "burn-in" jokes you can get out of it. – Louis Ramirez More »

    'Berlin': Rotating Fireplace of Glass and Steel

    Imagine this rotating fireplace sitting between your living room and kitchen, where you can just spin it around as you move from room to room, taking its heat and warm glow with you. The fireplace, dubbed "Berlin," revolves 360 degrees with the flick of a wrist. More »

    Fire + Water = Hearthfall

    Here's a combination of the soothing effects of a waterfall with the tranquil cracklings of a fire: the Hearthfall. Think of it as a facade for your fireplace, giving that focus of your living room's attention something to do during the summer. What's that? The TV is the focus of your living room? You have our sympathy. More »

    Antrax Drop Fireplace: Hot Italian Design

    Sieger Design Fireplace Collection

    If you're looking for a fireplace but don't have room for a chimney, here's a hot-looking unit from German designer Peter Maly. Part of the Sieger Design Fireplace Collection, the Plaza Ventless Fireplace can be installed in a free-standing configuration or mounted on a wall, and burns a unique alcohol gel that radiates heat without all that pesky, life-draining carbon monoxide. We've used this alcohol gel stuff in a ventless fireplace similar to this, and although the flame isn t as bright as that of natural gas or good old wood logs, it's still a pleasing effect, and gives off an aroma that reminds you of sterno burning under the steam table at a country club buffet. No pricing information is forthcoming, but if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it. More »
