WARM RECEPTION FOR THE “BRYCE” RADIATOR

VASCO and THERMIC, specialised in the development and production of designer radiators, continue to invest in new technologies. The most recent example of this specialisation is the development of the aluminium radiator BRYCE, which gives a new dimension to heating.

Inspired by nature
Bryce Canyon, famous for its unique geological rock formations, is a National Park situated in the south-western corner of the American state of Utah.
Because of the action of alternating forces of freezing and melting, the limestone and sandstone formations are gradually being eroded away, eventually to form the so-called ‘hoodoos’.
As a consequence, the worn-off tops are being transformed into fantastic shapes and forms that, through the effect of sunlight falling on them, create an interplay of beautiful colours.
It is these particularly shaped structures that inspired the VASCO designers to develop a radiator composed of vertical aluminium profiles, a concept that causes the light rays striking them to reflect in multiple colour variations, depending on their angle of impact.

Innovative heat
The Bryce is a fully closed radiator. Connection points and other awkward elements are hidden from the eye.  The execution in aluminium promotes more efficient heat radiation and at the same time, because of its light weight, has an aesthetic look to it.

Domestic and international recognition
The Bryce radiator has already been awarded a Henry van de Velde label 2007, the Product Design Award Hannover 2008, the Design Plus Award – Material Vision, Frankfurt 2007 and the Red Dot Product Design Award 2008. This international recognition of the innovative character and design of its newly conceived radiator is a confirmation of VASCO’s and THERMIC’s creativity and a valuable boost to stimulate future innovative endeavours.
