Abstract

The article raises the problem of the need to study fireplaces as artistic and applied objects in modern interiors from the point of view of design design. A range of issues related to the design projects of original fireplace objects in public interiors is outlined. The subject of the study is the development of a typological approach to the study and classification of these interior objects. The object of the study is fireplaces in public interiors. Particular attention is paid in the article to the analysis of the stylistic unity of interiors and fireplaces, in connection with which the location of fireplaces in the interiors of executive class, sanatorium facilities, museum environment, libraries, hotels, restaurants and gaming establishments is shown. The main conclusions of the study are the following: the dominant functions of fireplaces in public interiors are revealed. These are primarily those that serve interior decoration as a means of aestheticization and as a means of creating solemnity and grandeur. The creation of fireplace halls in modern public interiors are designed for receptions, recreation or cultural leisure as they create a relaxed and comfortable area. The main stylistic preferences include styles that have signs of grandeur, solemnity, such as Baroque, classicism, Petrovsky style. But in any case, the stylistic characteristics are determined by the features of the interior and are interconnected with it.

104. Home is Where the Hearth is: What a Multi-scalar Approach to Fireplaces from Çatalhöyük, Turkey, Can Reveal About Cooking Practices in Neolithic Households

Abstract

This study investigates fireplaces in the Neolithic settlement of Çatalhöyük in Anatolia, Turkey (levels South L–S and 4040 G–H, 6700–6100 BC). Taking a holistic view with a contextual, multi-scalar approach, I consider spatial and temporal dimensions: Large-scale landscape resources and small-scale material assemblages associated with food processing provide the context for the fireplaces, and I observe the changes over the long-term, the 600 years of my study, and the short-term impact of daily practice. Firstly, I determine the criteria for identifying different types of fireplaces, their practical function and uses. I then look at the construction of ovens and hearths in Çatalhöyük and their internal and external locations. I find individual variations between households and alterations over time and challenge interpretations that emphasise uniformity and seek trends and a grand narrative of symbolic meaning in the fireplaces. I find the abandonment of fireplaces is mainly guided by practical considerations, while the few symbolic deposits suggest the importance given to food preparation. I argue that not only natural resources and culture, but also daily practice impacts on landscape, architectural features and artefacts. I conclude that fire installations enabled households to be self-sufficient and therefore ovens and hearths had special significance.

105. Door locks, wall stickers, fireplaces: Assemblage theory and home (un)making in Lewisham’s temporary accommodation

Author

Harris, Ella and Harris, Ella

Abstract

This paper explores resident experiences of life in PLACE/Ladywell, a “pop‐up” social housing scheme in London providing temporary accommodation for homeless families. Specifically, we consider barriers to, and assertions of, homemaking in this temporary setting through fixtures and fittings—a door lock, wall stickers, and a fireplace. The paper utilises assemblage thinking to understand homemaking within these time‐limited and constrained circumstances. Despite their seeming banality, fixtures and fittings offer a material, politicised, and lively means of studying the attempted and thwarted production of home by residents living in PLACE/Ladywell. The absence of door locks reduces parents’ ability to maintain privacy and intimate relations; restrictions on hanging pictures and other decorative measures are circumvented by the use of wall stickers; and a defiant decorative fireplace establishes a sense of home in a temporary setting. Together, these objects constitute vital elements in negotiations between fixity and impermanence in temporary accommodation.

Abstract

Traditional fireplaces (ocaks), which have been commonly utilized in Anatolian historical buildings, possess functional values in addition to their aesthetic significance. Specifying the thermal properties of these elements is an evaluation field, which assists in determining the extent of the interventions that are undertaken to sustain the thermal comfort for contemporary reuse of historical houses. The aim of this study is to determine the potential of traditional ocaks to meet the thermal needs depending on contemporary utilization scenarios. The studied building type is open-hall (sofa) historical houses. The method of the study consists of collecting annual on-site thermal readings on two cases from rural and urban settlements, determining the thermophysical properties of construction materials used in these buildings and modeling the buildings on DesignBuilder v5.4.0.21 software for conducting their transient thermal analyses after calibrating the models. The changing values of spatial heating energy rate demands were calculated by analyses, were compared to the maximum heating powers of the ocaks in the chosen case buildings and the demand fulfillment rate of the ocaks were calculated. The presented analysis stages aim to contribute to the methodology of heating system evaluations for historical houses. As a result of this study, it was determined that two of the three ocaks in urban case are highly satisfactory for their corresponding spaces however one lacks this high-level of sufficiency, and all analyzed ocaks in rural case have adequate heating levels. Thus, data were generated to determine the scope of possible heating arrangements to be designed in the examined buildings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

115. Prilog za tipologiju kasnorenesansnih kamina

Abstract

Autorica donosi nedavno restaurirane dijelove kamina iz palače Milesi u Splitu koji su izrađeni od kamena Rosso Verona. Raspravlja o tipologiji kamina na bočnim konzolama, s motivom spirala i lavljih šapa, što se prema renesansnim traktatima u lokalnom kamenu izvode na području pokrajine Veneto tijekom 16. i 17. stoljeća, a kao import stižu u Dalmaciju., The furnishing of Dalmatian houses and palaces has mostly vanished from their former interiors. Built-in stone fireplaces were reutilised over the course of time, moved into new premises, or re-carved to be used as building material. The household fireplaces decorated with carvings, made of a stone architrave on pillars or on moulded feet, were almost as a rule disassembled and taken away over the last two centuries, and just a few rare specimens can be found in the original space. Over the architrave and the side walls, there was a hood (cappa) in the shape of a prism on which in rather luxurious interiors, allegorical scenes and the coat of arms or motto of a noble line would be painted. Documents from the commune archives of central Dalmatia take us to commissions for fireplaces that were confided to local carvers, particularly from Brač and Korčula. For example, among the elements of architectural decoration for the Dešković Arbanasović House in Omiš in 1610, the carver Stjepan Bokanić from Pučišće made una nappa alla francese, 32 feet long. Mention is made of In carico e discarico de pilastri per camin while a house was being built for the poet Jeronim Kavanjin in Sutivan in 1692, and in 1698 Spesi in far camin, e la napa, cioè camin a campana. In bequests and property divisions, fireplaces were valued, along with stone cupboards, well heads and wash basins as valuable elements of interior decoration. When houses were pulled down, elements that had been worked with carving techniques were sold at auctions, and decorated fireplaces and coats of arms were particularly sought by traders in antiques and the richer bourgeoisie, and gradually vanished from these impoverished Dalmatian milieus. On the site of the Gothic and Renaissance houses close to the civic castello to the south west of Diocletian’s Palace in Split, at the beginning of the 18th century, the monumental palace of the Milesi family was put up, modelled on Venetian Baroque palaces. In the interior of

116. Digital Atlas of Prehistoric structures: hearths, ovens and fireplaces

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to illustrate a sharing project of an on-line digital atlas of prehistoric structures, where scholars can share the products of their research or their discoveries, enrich their mind of knowledge through several updated comparisons, analyze any details of construction and related stratigraphy, identify main types, open discussions within the frame of interpretation of ancient features. Actually, particularly related to this meeting, the early phase of the project regards published protohistoric ovens and fireplaces, proposing a basic form to fill with information and documentation as well as introducing a general discussion on models and processes. Instead of proposing a classification the paper deals with indicating characters and markers recognizable in the archaeological context as well as building a conceptual map related to the ontology of use of fire in prehistory.

Abstract

This article discusses the history and innovation of fireplace design by Clémentin Philippe, a visionary in France. Philippe recognized the need for fireplaces to not only be decorative but also efficient in heating. After years of research and development, Philippe created the world's first dual-opening fireplace, which combined efficient heating capabilities with the magic of a traditional open fire. The fireplaces were handcrafted using cast iron and featured unique designs that allowed for heat retention. Cheminées Philippe, along with the acquisition of Godin, continues to offer functional and aesthetically pleasing fireplaces that reduce energy consumption. [Extracted from the article]

142. Should we phase out wood-burning fireplaces?

Subjects
FUELWOOD, FIREPLACES, AIR pollution
Abstract

This article discusses the debate surrounding wood-burning fireplaces and whether they should be phased out. On one hand, proponents argue that burning wood is harmful to the environment and human health, as it releases smoke and carbon dioxide, contributing to climate change and exacerbating conditions like heart and lung disease. They also point out that most homes have central heating systems that can be adjusted to heat specific rooms, making wood-burning fireplaces unnecessary. On the other hand, supporters of wood-burning fireplaces emphasize their cozy and comforting nature, noting that sitting by a fire can reduce stress and lower blood pressure. They also argue that wood-burning fireplaces can save on heating costs by warming up one room instead of the entire house. Ultimately, the decision to phase out wood-burning fireplaces depends on weighing the environmental and health concerns against the benefits of warmth and coziness. [Extracted from the article]
