Building a story – how to bring timeless, to a time-worn villa

We are thrilled to share with you a journal by Stoke Fireplace Studio. Featuring an in-depth look into our recent PM RES villa renovation in Mount Eden.

The living room featured an old open gas fire that was inefficient and dated. We upgraded the fire to an Escea DF960 from Stoke Auckland – a room-sealed gas fireplace with 5-star efficiency.

“I often use Escea in my projects, they are beautifully designed and crafted on our New Zealand shores. The team is great to work with. The DF960 was new on the market, and I particularly loved the scale of this model for the project” - Emma.

The fireplace sits on a striking, Arabescato Marble hearth with a custom surround, flanked by bespoke joinery.

“The fireplace is now an anchor, a focal point in a living space that creates tone and solace.”
