Hot Stuff

There’s nothing like a cozy night in by the fireplace, whether you opt for an electric, wood or gas model. This Canadian-made gas insert is ideal when switching from a wood-burning fireplace, especially in municipalities where wood fires are no longer permit- ted due to environmental issues. Customize it with your choice of hearth, facade and “logs,” so that your room’s new focal point harmonizes with your home.

G4 built-in gas FIREPLACE (model 1000BLK + 787RGL + 798 FFV), from $4,500, Valor Firepaces, valorfireplaces.com.

Chic Chairs

Settling into a comfy chair with a good book on a cool evening? Oh, yes! We love contemporary wing chairs, which strike a less structured silhouette than their predecessors. Gentle curves envelope and their elegant profile sits pretty in every decor.
