Make A Statement With Cast Iron Radiators

Interior design is all about raiding the past to create a unique look - whether it's a traditional or contemporary look. Authenticity and quality are crucial for creating a bespoke, beautiful interior.

Cast iron radiators are experiencing a resurgence in popularity as people turn their backs on the bland, homogeneity of the high street. Instead of the characterless, soulless modern radiators that dominate new build homes and rental flats, interior designers are opting for the charm of furniture and styles that have endured from the past. Cast iron radiators have a long history in the British home, school and workplace. But in a world where everything is increasingly cheaply designed and manufactured and seems to break down time after time, there's a movement back towards the classic functional furniture that lasts. High quality, sturdy and reliable cast iron radiators are more than just a reliable heating solution. They convey quality and status.

Gold Painted Cast Iron Radiators

Designer Gail Barry is famed for her quirky, artistic statements with clients ranging from Helena Bonham Carter to Cilla Black. And her home is a colossal tribute to the incredible expression good interior design can achieve that has featured in the home and lifestyle pages of the Telegraph newspaper, complete with elaborate gilded furniture and gold painted cast iron radiators. Cast iron radiators have a stand-alone design quality that ensures they'll fit in any design style. Paint them black or glossy white for an industrial, city loft effect. Or opt for Victorian colours for elegance and class. Unlike the run-of-the-mill radiators that are in general, ugly, cast iron radiators bring a quirky beauty to a home.

Radiators to be Proud of

When it comes to the bland, ugly radiators used in the majority of homes, it's not surprising there's been a trend for radiator 'covers' in an attempt to hide these monstrosities. Cast iron radiators are however such a favourite of interior designers because they aren't about drawing attention away. Unlike conventional radiators that put function before design, resulting in often ugly objects; cast iron radiators are the opposite - they offer a bold, loud design statement that combine function with style, beautifully drawing attention to themselves thanks to their originality and individuality.
