[01] Can you describe your renovation project?

We wanted to reorganize our store layout to dedicate a café-style space with a mountain view. Facing the windows, we wanted a fireplace so people could feel at home during the winter.

 

[02] Why did you choose to add a stove to your business?

The idea is to make the space warm and inviting, with a “modern chalet” vibe.

[03] With all the brands and different stoves on the market, why did you choose a Stûv?

The fact that the stoves are made in Bromont caught our attention. Plus, Stûv’s reputation for both quality and design tipped the scales.

 

[04] Why a stove?

Because everyone loves gathering around a fire when it’s cold. It brings a relaxed atmosphere.

[05] Where and how did you integrate it? And why?

Inside the café space, it is facing large windows with a direct view of the mountain. It’s impossible to miss, adding an aesthetic touch to the café’s décor while also serving as an efficient heating solution in winter.

The Echo series showcases the thoughtful decision-making process that echoes through time. A wood stove or fireplace, carefully chosen, embodies this resonance – an object that, beyond its function, leaves a lasting and unique imprint on the space it inhabits.
