Gather Around These 7 Modern Fire Pit Designs
Maximize your time spent outdoors with a fire pit, the perfect patio accessory to help you wind down with family or celebrate the warm weather with friends.
Blaze Fire Tower
"More than a fire pit." So goes the motto of the Blaze Fire Tower, from the Kansas-based Bad Idea Supply Company. Precision cut from heavy duty American steel, the tower combines the capabilities of a charcoal grill, wood-fired smoker, and outdoor fireplace all in one eye-catching construction.
Skargaarden Boo Fire Basket
The Boo Fire Basket from Skargaarden is made of black lacquered steel. Designed to fit several logs for an outdoor fire, the Boo can also be overturned to hold a candle or lantern.
Less is more when it comes to the Boo Fire Basket from Skargaarden. Although they draw on a variety of traditions—from American Shaker to Scandinavian to Bauhaus—the result is streamlined outdoor furniture designs that can withstand the elements. The Fire Basket is constructed of black-lacquered steel; its airy, hourglass body lets the fire breathe, and gets you comfortably close to the flames.
Plodes Geometric Fire Pit
Hand-crafted of cold-rolled carbon steel, the Geometric Fire Pit hails from from the Texas-based Plodes Studio and is available via Design Within Reach. An optional steel grate makes grilling possible, and a separate cedar top turns it into a compelling accent table.
Manta Ray Fire Pit
As its name implies, the Manta Ray Fire Pit was inspired by the undulating fins of the giant sea creature. Designed and manufactured by functional steel artisan Rick Wittrig of Fire Pit Art, every piece is signed and numbered by the artist upon completion.
Stahl Firepit
The Stahl Fire Pit was made to look better with age. The Portland-based company uses non powder-coated A36 hot rolled steel to encourage a natural patina over time. The sharp silhouette is easy to assemble and also comes in a convenient camper size (made of aluminum).
Skagerak Helios Fire Bowl
Whether you want to grill up dinner or just sit back and appreciate the flames, the sleek and simple Helios Fire Bowl from Skagerak, a family-owned company in Denmark, has you covered. It's designed for optimal air flow to circulate around firewood or charcoal, while discreet handles make it portable.
Zero Fire Pit
"Fire: everything springs from it." In that spirit, Italian design house AK47 brings us the Zero Fire Pit. Crafted in Italy from oxidized steel, it combines handy wood storage with attractive display. Its other components include a stainless-steel grill and fitted disc, or "suffocation lid," for when the party winds down.
