A Refined “Periscope of Fire”
Introducing the Slimfocus, a sleek suspended (or optionally fixed) fireplace that reconciles minimalism with presence. Designed by Dominique Imbert, this award-winning, tubular hearth is often described as a “periscope of fire”—a vertical conduit of flame that makes a powerful architectural statement while occupying minimal visual mass.

With a diameter of ~324 mm (12.8″), the Slimfocus complements tight interiors and modern low‑energy homes. Available suspended, on a base, or wall‑mounted, with options for rotating (360° pivot) or fixed installation.
