Frosty mornings and chilly evenings means we are turning up the heating to keep ourselves and our houses warm. To see ‘warmth’ has a physiological affect on us all to some extent, ‘see a fire and feel warm type of approach‘.
If you chose not to use a cosy traditional open fire to create a warm glow to a room and still want an interesting source of heat to look at then these stylish and unusual radiators may be just the thing!
This new look for radiators has been produced by Bumrae Jo and Zemzem Kaya. The concept behind their design was to look at heat and see what it means to people’s lives.
‘The warmness of the home is creating space for our personal development, a shelter to grow, to unfold and to ‘flower’. It’s like an incubator, like a NEST where new life has its origin‘.
The nest within the ‘tree’ not only adds a quirky interest and source of fascination, the ‘incubating egg’ acts as a humidifier for the room.
The design is called “Bezpieczenstwo - Feeling secure”. I’m not sure that a radiator makes me feel secure, but I have to say it makes a real and pleasant change from the normal boring white radiators found in most people’s homes. A definite alternative to MDF ‘fret work’ style covers or attempts to paint radiators in order to try and some how disguise them!
The design works on a similar principle to having a ‘cover’ for a radiator, the difference being the pipe work which is used for the ‘nest’ section. The front panel is used to cover the entire body of the radiator and nest.
Colour choices are available; white with a vivid red tree design or my preference which is the more subtle colours of creams and beiges which make the design more adaptable for different room colour designs in my opinion.
