The Portofino Fireplace

Sleek contemporary lines with a refined stepped profile and architectural presence

The Portofino Fireplace is a contemporary statement in clean geometry and quiet confidence, defined by a bold outer frame and a crisp, stepped inner return that draws the eye naturally to the flame. Its generous mantel shelf and precise mitred corners create a tailored, architectural look—minimal in ornament, rich in proportion—making it a versatile centrepiece crafted in your choice of premium stone from a range of natural options.

Design Heritage

Portofino takes its cues from modern architectural minimalism: strong rectangular lines, disciplined symmetry, and a layered depth that feels both contemporary and timeless. Rather than relying on decorative carving, the design celebrates profile and shadow—perfect for interiors that favour refined restraint over overt ornament.

The Details

A broad outer surround is paired with a stepped, picture-frame opening, creating a subtle sense of recession and emphasis around the fire. The mantel shelf reads as a clean, substantial plane, while sharp mitred joints and crisp arrises deliver a precise, gallery-like finish. The overall effect is tailored and sculptural, with the flame framed as the focal artwork.

Proportions & Presence

With its wide stance and deep framing, Portofino has a confident, grounding presence without feeling heavy. The layered surround adds depth to flatter walls and creates satisfying shadow lines, helping the fireplace hold its own in open-plan rooms, snug lounges, and statement media walls alike.

Styling Suggestions

Portofino suits contemporary and transitional schemes beautifully—pair it with textured plaster, timber floors, and low, modern seating for a relaxed luxury feel, or set it against darker wall colours for a striking, high-contrast focal point. Keep accessories minimal: a single piece of art above the mantel and considered lighting will underline the fireplace’s clean architectural geometry. Available in a range of natural stones, selected to complement your room’s palette and finishes.
