La Castellamonte and Adriano Design have collaborated to create Stack stoves, a ceramic line with wood burning and pellet burning fireplaces that reinterprets the archetypal object in a contemporary touch.

On one side, an excellent production that has been able to preserve a
handicraft and now industrial know-how of ancient tradition; on the
other side, an avant-garde design that has accepted an innovation
challenge in respect of the past.

Stack is modular and customizable. The flexible structure allows the “as
much as one likes” composition of the stove, thus punctually meeting
precise aesthetical, spatial and functional needs. The nine models
combine the combustion and heating modular elements with support modules
that offer articulated materic, dimensional and functional solutions.
The stoves are customizable by adding heating modules in order to create
height and power variations.
The building modularity is
the result of a sustainable approach, expressed in the rationalization
of the production, storage and transport processes and in the
consumption optimization, set on the customer energetical needs and on
the emissions.
Stack is highly technological, a requirement
guaranteed by the hot blast pipes heat exchanger, typical of the stoves
La Castellamonte, and the excellent performance levels reached by the
wood burning and pellet burning fireplaces.
“The technological
innovation concerns every part of the Stack stoves that, with their
modular structure, can respond precisely to the needs of the
architectural contexts in which they are inserted, by optimizing spaces,
consumption and emissions”, explain Davide and Gabriele Adriano, the
two Turin designers.
Stack stoves has won the Design Plus Award powered by ISH, the international biennal fair, leader for the bath, renewable energies and air-conditioning sectors, that takes place in Frankfurt am Main. The jury has praised the “excellent and particularly innovative design” of the Stack stoves, especially for what concerns the “environment protection, energy efficiency and sustainability aspects”.

This shows that using knowledge and style of past designs create modern and advanced products to consumers. Like all things in life: design is its constantly challenging but brilliant ideas do not go out of style. Which why classic pieces of furniture never disappear.
