Kitchen & Bathroom Issue

Kitchens and bathrooms are, arguably, the most consequential rooms in the home — and almost always the first to be considered. Whether approached through renovation or new build, their design has the power to recalibrate how a home is lived in and experienced. For this issue, our guest editor, Mardi Doherty, principal of Studio Doherty, explores what it truly means to transform these pivotal spaces — and why thoughtful design in kitchens and bathrooms delivers dividends far beyond the purely functional. Her insights both as an architect and as her own client give an open and honest account of the thinking behind creating a home.

The magic of Fire with Ercole

Ercole is a wood outdoor fireplace with a bearing structure of steel and a circular concrete seating area.


 

With a strong visual impact the outdoor fireplace can be placed in different architectural contexts. Contemporary or historical gardens, outside areas of hotels and restaurants, are the ideal places for enjoying the magic of fire with Ercole.

Not just the fireplace but also a seating area and a container for firewood which, when not in use, can also be a useful storage surface. The Ercole outdoor fireplace is provided with a closing disk that covers the combustion chamber, so as to prevent residual material getting out in the event of rain or wind.

‘Strong and statuesque, you cope with bad weather like a mythological hero. You are made of concrete that surrounds a primitive fire. You know how to be elegant and informal, your materials age and are transformed with the passing of time, giving you a more and more authentic flavour. Your generous dimensions mean that you are always the centre of attention. Your common sense can be seen in the way you organise your precious wood.’
