The brief
The overall look is deliberately simple. The stove sits against a plain wall with no heavy surround or chimney breast, allowing the shape of the appliance, hearth and flue to define the installation.
The Di Lusso R4 Euro is a contemporary wood burning stove with a large glass window and refined proportions. It is well suited to modern homes where customers want the warmth and flame picture of a real fire without a traditional fireplace opening.
How the project came together
The teardrop-shaped Italian slate hearth is both practical and visual. It protects the floor while giving the installation a softer, more considered footprint than a standard square hearth.
The twin wall insulated flue system is an important part of the project because it allows a real wood burning stove to be installed in properties without a conventional masonry chimney.
Details worth noticing
The result is compact, clean and highly usable — a modern stove installation that brings warmth and atmosphere without taking over the room.
