Geeks Guide to Living: Screw Chopping Wood

Electrolux-portable-fireplace

Chestnuts roasting by a… Electrolux Portable Fireplace Capsule?

Okay, so this isn’t your mom and pop’s fireplace, but who needs that when you got this slick, portable, space age fire capsule? Designed by Camillo Vanacore and made by Electrolux, this fireplace is small enough to carry around, so you can put it in whatever room of the house you want.

The other cool thing about this (concept) design, is that The Electrolux Fireplace starts out as opaque, then slowly turns transparent as the flames turn on and the capsule heats up. Once it’s cool again, it returns to the white ceramic. Pretty sweet!

    this looks cool, but wouldn’t the outside glass get really hot?

    Maybe that’s why it’s still a concept — no info anywhere that I can find on the material that would be used for the ceramic shell…

    I wonder what it uses as fuel. Probably something super awesome.

    My guess is butane… or magic.
