As founder of the design and build firm Fire Features, sculptor Elena Colombo has turned what she calls her "healthy pyromania" into a booming business where she creates stunning fire, water and wind features that light up private homes, hotels, and resorts worldwide. Elena's fire features are often the defining design element of a room.
They accentuate a space and give it unique character.
Elena is especially inspired by the primal need we have for fire and our instinct to gather around a warm lighted place to share food, stories, music and experiences. As she puts it, she's on a mission "to restore the hearth as a ceremonial place and as a point of convergence for families and friends." Her designs reflect this goal. They are pieces of art that dazzle the senses and draw people around for conversation, warmth and happy memories.
