Stone-lined fireplaces lose their spark when one considers the heavy burden that their rustic charm places on Mother Nature. Yet, the light and heat that they generate are unmatched, soothing in us a primal need for comfort. Balancing duty and desire, the Fire Company's EcoSmart fireplaces tread lightly on the environment. They burn denatured ethanol, a renewable resource, instead of wood or coal. After winning an Interior Design magazine Roscoe award in 2006 for Innovation, the manufacturer has launched three new items.The already popular Retro, a rounded-square fireplace, is now offered in the limited edition Gift of Fire design, which is an imaginative Aboriginal motif. Also new are the Austere and modern Igloo, with its panes of ice-like glass, and the folded Zeta, which sports a curved leather shell in camel, black, white, chocolate, or red, on a steel and plywood base. For those who prefer simpler forms, the previously-introduced square-shaped Cube and Fusion offer painted MDF-surrounds that come in a dozen colorways, which will set hearts ablaze. Fusion also features a glass front and back, offering visual access from just about any perspective. 61-2-9997-3050; ecosmartfire.com. circle 743
