Barbas, a well-established name in the European fireplace market, comes with a powerful promise: a custom-designed fireplace. And that’s fitting, because for most people, choosing a fireplace is, at its core, an aesthetic process. Do I find it beautiful? Does it fit my interior? Yet almost the entire market focuses on the fire experience. From that insight, we made a conscious choice: to position a Barbas fireplace as a design object. Because when you say Barbas, you say lines.

A Barbas is instantly recognizable by its signature play of lines. The characteristic 8 mm thick frame gives each Barbas its distinctive look. In our brand communication, we highlight this defining design feature. Combined with personalized, made-to-measure options, Barbas gives its customers the freedom to configure a design fireplace that suits their exact preferences.

We captured that promise in the guiding idea: Aligned with you. It ties both functionally and phonetically to the new strategy. Barbas moves with you, not a standard solution, but a fireplace you can fully tailor to who you are. That doesn’t just give you freedom of choice, it expresses your identity.
