For over 50 years, Focus has been revolutionising fireplaces and the world of design in an extraordinary story that began in 1968. In 1967, Dominique Imbert forged his first fireplace in his studio in the south of France, but the date that launched the international reputation of Focus was 1968, the year the sculptor created the iconic Gyrofocus. Since then, Focus designs have been featured in such wide-ranging settings as stylish hotels, private homes and some of the world’s most prestigious design museums (including the Guggenheim Museum in New York) and have been awarded numerous international distinctions. The success of Focus is due to its unparalleled technical and design innovation, to its close links with architects and interior designers, and to the strong social and human values that have guided the company since its inception through its commitment to French design and production. Every aspect of Focus reflects the image of its founder: Authentic and creative!
