Case Study: Suite dreams
When consultants from Dublin-based adi studio were asked to create signature looks for four luxury penthouses in London, they turned to the versatility of EcoSmart Fires.
Located in exclusive Chelsea Harbour, Wyndham Grand London Chelsea Harbour is the city’s only five-star luxury all-suite hotel. Setting a new benchmark in luxury accommodation, Wyndham Grand boasts four spectacular penthouse suites that offer panoramic views of the River Thames.
Faced with no fireplace provision or gas supply, the energy-efficient, renewable bioethanol-fuelled EcoSmart Fire was the standout choice.
Describing the flame as “more realistic than any other flueless fire options out there”, interior designer Maria Rise says the best thing about the EcoSmart indoor fires was the flexibility to position them anywhere in the room. “This was certainly the best solution available, allowing us the freedom to create something that would not have been possible otherwise,” she adds.
The fireplaces are designed as focal points for the penthouses’ living areas, and Maria has used natural stone – predominantly marble – for the fireplace surrounds.
That each sumptuous penthouse suite pays homage to London’s fashion icons says volumes about adi studio’s decision to feature EcoSmart Fires. Who says you need to sacrifice style for substance?
Our brief was to create four very different penthouse styles for what is arguably London’s premier five-star hotel,” - Maria Rise, Interior Designer
“We designed all aspects of the interior, so the bespoke possibilities of the EcoSmart Fire BK5 was great for us,” adds Maria.
