Leading interior designer Maria
Rice turned to EcoSmart fires
to achieve a focal point for the
stunning penthouse rooms of
the Wyndham Grand Hotel,
Chelsea Harbour.
INSPIRED BY RAW COAL
lack of a gas supply to the suites.
Maria recalled that she had
seen bio-ethanol EcoSmart fires
demonstrated at an exhibition
and seeing as they needed no
gas, she saw them as the perfect
alternative.
Between 2008 and 2010, the
hotel went through a dramatic
restoration and rejuvenation
programme, including
the creation of four luxury
penthouse suites offering
spectacular views of the river
Thames.
However, it wasn’t just the fact
the fires didn’t need gas, it was
their versatility of design which

Greystone is an evocative range that features a choice of two
deep and rich grey shades. Speckled with a liberal dusting of
shadowy lowlights and bright highlights, the tiles in this range
provide a modern and chic mood.
Inspired by natural stone mixed with the deep, matt textures of
raw coal- the range delivers a natural, mountain aesthetic.
Maria and her team were tasked
with creating four very different
styles of penthouse apartment
for one of the capital’s premiere
five star hotels.
Maria eventually opted for the
EcoSmart Fire BK5, which is
solely distributed in Britain by
retailer Smart Fire UK.
20mm thick tiles from this range can be used effectively
outdoors, in areas like patios and rooftop spaces.

Jungle Python (Limited Edition)
The Jungle Python is an alchemy of graceful colours and sophisticated
leathers. Three luxurious skins inspired by mysterious reptiles and
ethnic jewels were combined to create an avant-garde collection. This
limited edition is as elegant as it is surprising. The goldish prints on
the snake skin add a glamorous touch to the most beautiful interiors.
Jungle Python is a fleeting nod to fashion designers that adorn
python’s skin. With its spicy and woody notes, the fragrance is subtly
savage and masculine.
