The Forecast is Calling for Snow…Again.

And again, and again. As we prepare to get smacked with three more snow storms this week, I can’t help but wonder, “Will we ever see spring?”… Don’t get me wrong, I love being an interior designer in Kansas City and I LOVE working miracles on old fireplaces, but I am SO READY to design an outdoor living space!

As I sit here under my fuzzy throw blanket, shopping online for heated outdoor furniture, I am overcome with chills. Why is my home office colder than an unfinished basement in Alaska? What are my options for additional heating? What are your options? A space heater? They aren’t exactly the most attractive home accessories, or the safest. Wouldn’t it be great if we could heat our homes in an artistic way?

Innovative artists like James di Marco have blown the fretwork cabinets off of old fashioned, space hogging floor radiators by creating beautiful, multifunctional works of wall art. The impressive “Shine” wall radiator can set the tone in any room with its dimmer LED light feature.

Adding a wall radiator to your bathroom décor can be the ultimate in functional design. The Slice Hydronic Radiator features a flip down bench for an instant seat and warm towels. This model is also popular among perching pets.

Marco Pisati transforms his laser cut steel sculptures into elegant heat systems with modern finishes. Inspired my nature with a minimalist flair, the thermal furnishings from K8 Radiatori gives the appearance of wall art with the performance of a top of the line heating solution. From the bedroom to the bathroom, the Spekkio combines a thermal heat and lighting within the beauty of this full length mirror.

Novellini Design has a unique way of turning their wall radiators into works of art–they turn them into actual pieces of art! Or do they turn works of art into wall radiators?  Regardless of their process, the end result is a fabulous conversation piece that will warm you while you admire it. Novellini Design are also experts at creating gorgeous shower enclosures with the technology to incorporate your favorite art within the shower wall.
