rijks | museumkwartier | Amsterdam 

a duo of bespoke fireplaces

We got the pleasure to design two beautiful fireplaces within a project of Kees Bosch from Co van der Horst. 

​

The living room is complemented by a blue steel niche embedded in the wall. the transparent smoked glass hood gives a great view to the fire from any angle. The glass mirrors the view outside, creating an extra dimension.

​

The linear gas fireplace is sunken in the with leather upholstered plateau, stretching out through the niche. The shelving next to the glass hood makes a great place to display your beloved art objects, like the Delft blue vases from Moooi presented here. 

​

The vases give a subtle hint to the neighboring area, the well-known museumplein. 

An area of culture and heritage, the place where the famous rijksmuseum stands. 

In the rijksmuseum you can also find a large collection of Delft blue pottery. 

​

In the dining room we placed an open two-sided fireplace within a cut out of the wall. 

The open design allows the light to flow freely and creates a view to the other side of the space. The blue steel encasing gives body to the slender design of the fireplace.
