Having grown up with hot water radiators in a Victorian-era house, I think they are far and away the most comforting of heating devices. Sure, they don’t heat up a house a quickly — or perhaps as evenly — as forced air, but there’s nothing better than leaning against a warm radiator when you’re cold. It’s like a gigantic metal hot-water bottle.
I like fireplaces, too, but if forced to choose, I think I would choose radiators.
And, I dig the vintage look that most radiators have. But I’m kind of in love with this modern reinterpretation — a radiator made to look like a white picket fence.
Tell me this wouldn’t be perfect if it were paired up with those cloud shelves?
