Typical radiators are not that attractive and are difficult to miss in any home. But they are often essential in keeping your home warm when the cold weather sets in. So why not make your radiator something worth looking at. Some of the newest radiator designs are masterfully disguised as art, making them both functional and decorative.

Radiators Masquerading as Art

When you look at some of the modern heating systems today, they might appear less efficient due to their artsy nature. However, these designs work just as well as any traditional, boring radiator, they just do it with a bit more flare.

Companies producing these trendy radiators hand-make the designs to look like wall hangings, so you not only get a great-working heater, but also a unique piece of art. Some designs are multi-functional, acting as towel warmers or shelving units, which can work perfectly in bathrooms or bedrooms. Glass radiators are extremely popular, creating a vibrant and warming environment. These artwork radiators come in so many shapes and sizes—small, large, circular, rectangular, short, tall—the possibilities are endless.

If you are not one for flashy heaters, there are many available designs that keep that old-school look, with a cleaner cut and finish. Some companies can even make them look like they are a part of the wall, meaning they can be almost invisible.

The Cost of Artwork Radiators

Installing an artwork radiator is not cheap. Since most of the designs are specially made, they can run a high price tag, ranging anywhere from a couple hundred to over a thousand dollars. It’s a good idea to shop around for heating companies and contractors that provide quality products for a decent price.

The Benefit of Artwork Radiators

While any radiator, whether artfully designed or not, can efficiently keep you and your family warm, there are some benefits to artwork radiators. They are a great way to decorate a bland hallway or living room, while simultaneously adding necessary appliances to your home. As mentioned before, some of these contemporary models can function as shelves or other storage units, so they can be used for multiple purposes.
