Design by: Patricia Holler of WA International

A Fusion of Flame and Fine Dining
This project captures the essence of Contemporary Luxe through its integration of cutting-edge fire technology, most notably, the Planika FLA4 bioethanol burner. Positioned as a central design element, the sleek, ventless flame delivers not only visual impact but also sustainable innovation, aligning perfectly with the refined aesthetic of the space. The FLA4 transforms the room into a luxurious gathering space, making it a true focal point for comfort and style.
The surrounding interior complements the burner with rich textures, curated finishes, and sculptural elements like the Aztec-inspired art wall. Together, they create a harmonious environment where eco-friendly fire technology becomes a statement of modern sophistication and sustainable opulence, while the fireplace’s warm and inviting atmosphere elevates the entire space.
For this exclusive hospitality project, a tailor-made FLA bioethanol burner was crafted to fulfill the client's vision of an extended, uninterrupted flame. While the standard maximum length reaches 2490 mm, Planika offers bespoke configurations to accommodate even the most demanding interior concepts.
The burner was seamlessly integrated into a custom-designed recess within the restaurant’s bespoke furniture. This flush, built-in installation not only elevates the visual appeal but also preserves the flow of the interior architecture—blending fire and design into one continuous aesthetic.
Installation is simple and efficient: the unit plugs directly into a standard electrical outlet, with no need for chimneys, flues, or extensive infrastructure. Weighing approximately 100 kg, the burner must be housed within a solid and secure structure for optimal stability and performance.
At the Core – Planika FLA4
The Fire Line Automatic 4 (FLA4) is Planika’s most advanced and versatile linear fireplace. Designed for luxurious interiors, it offers full automation, customizable length, and seamless integration. Its sleek form and minimalist design make it the ideal centerpiece for refined, contemporary spaces.
FLA4 is also available as FLA4+, offering extended features such as a larger fuel tank, longer burning time, and optional external control modules – ideal for premium hospitality and residential projects that demand more flexibility and performance.

Powered by BEV™ Technology
FLA4 operates on Planika’s patented BEV™ (Burning Ethanol Vapours) technology – a breakthrough in safe and clean fireplace innovation. Instead of burning liquid fuel directly, the ethanol is heated to produce vapors, which are then ignited. This ensures:
- A smoke-free, odorless flame
- No ash or soot, ideal for indoor spaces
- Smart operation via remote controll or app
- Safety through automatic sensors and fuel isolation
Together, FLA4 and BEV™ technology embody the future of fire: elegant, sustainable, and intelligently controlled.
