The simplicity of this gas fire, perfectly proportioned for smaller rooms, received an overwhelming majority of votes from the public, whichever channel they used to cast their votes. The Element with its state-of-the-art design, compact proportions and wall-mounted installation, is an ideal radiant gas fire for use where space is restricted – it needs no hearth – or to complement clean modern décor. A visionary concept in gas fire engineering, it's available as a stand-alone product or with a Corian wall surround as shown here.

Designer Adrian Wright studied Industrial Design Engineering at The Royal College of Art, London, and worked on product design projects for Artemide, Alessi and Ideal Standard Italy, among others, before being commissioned by British manufacturer Brilliant Fires to produce a contemporary gas fire and a range of furniture and accessories with the same aesthetic qualities. His company Designwright is currently working on a new collection of designs for Brilliant Fires, one of the largest users of Corian in the UK.
