Classic as well as contemporary
Designer Christophe Ployé
Designed in France by Christophe Ployé, Design Manager of Focus, the Bubble’s uncomplicated expression reflects the timeless grace the trend-bucking company has created for more than 50 years. Its clear and bold geometric design nods to the roundness of a planet or an alphabet, an organic form harkening back to childhood. Aesthetics aside, many thoughtful features of the brazier are also worthy of admiration.
Some highlight features include:
- To protect a burning fire from wind, the top of the bowl is sliced at an incline to allow the “back” to rise higher above the flames without blocking airflow.
- For ease of mobility, the bottom of the sphere is flat and has two rear caster wheels that help it glide across an outdoor surface.
- The interior contains a fitted, removable bowl for quick maintenance and cleaning, keeping the burning wood closer to the surface despite the appearance of the bowl’s cavernous depth.
- A steel cover is included to fit over the bowl to protect it from rain or other elements.
- The heavy-duty steel is coated with a matte, anti-corrosion finish to withstand outdoor conditions so you can enjoy it for many seasons.
When asked about what the design is meant to achieve, Christophe says,
“Our sole mission is to give pleasure to the user—to bring people together and soothe their souls.”
Sophisticated simplicity
In fact, the Bubble’s design created quite an impression on Hillary Farr, internationally renowned designer and co-host of HGTV’s “Love It or List It” television show. She was particularly taken by how the minimalist Bubble was so easy to use. Within moments of unwrapping the product, Hillary noted about the removable basin:
“Look how shallow it is. It looks like it’s this great big thing full of wood, but it’s not…I was never a girl guide (the equivalent of a Girl Scout in the U.S.) But in a flash, I can make this happen!”
European Home owners John and Holly Markham visit Hilary at her home.
