Contemporary Fireplace

Anyone know places to get contemporary fireplaces?

Also, i live in a high rise, and doubt i can have real flames...know any alternatives?

Also, are there any contemporary fireplaces out there that you don't need to put in-the-wall?

The Heatnglo cyclone is cool...but for 7999.00 I better dig out my old ski mask and pistol to raise some hands and funds at the local bank.

Hmmm, maybe they slipped a decimel there. Then again, maybe you could pay as much for a fireplace as a Scion? It must surely be modern since it costs an arm and a leg.

Hmmmm, I think I might sell an organ for the Fireorb. It's not just cool looking, it's made really well, and it ROTATES!? How cool is that?!

some interesting stuff here - but it all seems to be real fire. Also some very amusing 80's designs.

I think you are going to be settling for one of those electric bad boys from the home despot. I guess you can make a nice looking mdf box to go around it since there's no actual fire.

other design ideas (i've done some research in this area - most of the stuff is only in europe)

looks like you could get one of these in the US:

and build something cool around it.

i've been impressed with their styling and pricing

an alternative to rais/wittus

That fireorb is sick as hell. That is exactly what I dream about in my future modernist dream house. For a while I didn;t realize that these were still being made, but it makes sense. I used to ebay for old units like this.
