The beautifully crafted, gallery-like Stoke Fireplace Studio in Adelaide is the ideal place for designers, architects and homeowners to ‘find their fire’.

As winter starts to make its presence felt across the country, our minds are naturally turning to creating warmth and cosiness in our homes. And there are few better ways to beat the chill than with a fireplace. In South Australia, where the mercury can drop very low very fast, Stoke’s Adelaide Fireplace Studio presents the ideal opportunity to explore an impeccably curated range of the world’s most evolved fireplaces in an elegant gallery space.

Dramatic concrete floors are juxtaposed against timber and a dark moody colour palette, providing the perfect backdrop to Stoke’s unparalleled range of gas, electric and wood fireplaces.

The studio, in Flinders Park in Adelaide’s west, is one of seven Stoke showrooms in Australia and New Zealand, all designed to offer homeowners and the A&D community a heightened retail experience that matches the quality and innovation of the products on display. The Adelaide space is a design statement in itself: dramatic concrete floors are juxtaposed against timber and a dark moody colour palette, providing the perfect backdrop to Stoke’s unparalleled range of gas, electric and wood fireplaces, for both indoor and outdoor applications.

That range includes forward-thinking brands like Escea, MODE and Spartherm, companies synonymous with ground-breaking innovation and functionality. Take the design-led MODE range of luxury gas fires (available exclusively at Stoke), which feature seamless detailing and impeccable finishes that come to life in unconventional shapes and sizes, including a three-sided iteration. The KS1460 perfectly embodies MODE’s aesthetics-driven ethos, with an expansive window, low-reflection glass and refined minimalist lines.

Escea’s gas and wood fireplaces are designed and meticulously handcrafted in New Zealand’s South Island, the ideal location to test heating products’ capabilities.

The studio also showcases Escea’s full range of indoor and outdoor gas and wood fireplaces, which are designed and meticulously handcrafted in New Zealand’s South Island, the ideal location to test heating products’ capabilities. Escea’s cutting-edge indoor gas fires feature Flexible Flue technology, whereby flues can be run up, down or horizontally, giving complete design freedom, and room-sealed design, so that the room air and the firebox air don’t mix, boosting efficiency, safety and wellbeing.

But there’s more on offer here than a tactile and immersive shopping experience. Adam and Zoe Roe, the husband-and-wife behind the studio, bring not only years of industry experience to the business but, as locals, have an intimate knowledge of what Adelaideans need in both residential and commercial spaces. The Roes are committed to ‘concept-to- completion’ customer service, ensuring the process of buying a fireplace is as seamless as possible.

By providing practical, hands-on project management and specialist tailored advice, the couple not only establish a relationship of trust but are able to navigate the most ambitious fireplace design. “What our customers appreciate most,” Adam says, “is the relief that comes with knowing they can trust us to handle the whole process – from concept to completion – with complete transparency.”
