This innovative home is comprised of three stepped levels with sloped roofs, which allows the building to follow the contour of the hill; thereby strengthening its connection to the landscape. This home sits on the hillside in such a way that allows it to look like it had always been there; meaning there are no retaining walls and no verandahs sticking out high in the air.
Featuring the Double Sided Axis i1000, the living room of this home is separated by the stunning minimal yet contemporary double-sided wood fireplace. Based in the Rhône-Alpes region of France, Axis fireplaces specialise in the manufacturing of designer wood fireplaces in a variety of different styles, shapes and sizes.
The Axis i1000 Double Sided Wood Fireplace provides extremely effective heating of up to 3000m2 and average efficiency of 62%, this fireplace is fitted with the fantastic DAFS system. The DAFS (Double Air Flow System) technology works by injecting oxygen at a determined level inside of the combustion chamber, the supply of new oxygen will burn the gases and smoke that has not yet been burnt and prevent them from being released into the flue system. With a self-washing glass system, the Axis i1000 Double Sided Wood Fireplace operation provides less CO2 emissions, longer fire term/ burn time, cleaner glass and bricks, and total combustion of the firewood.
